Guest reviews

Super friendly staff, here you really feel the Austrian hospitality! Excellent breakfast buffet with a wide selection. Newly renovated bathrooms, up to date, neutrally designed but very functional.

The standard rooms are small, but sufficient for one or two nights. The carpet is an acquired taste (but also a matter of taste)

Very close to the train/bus station. The room was clean and modern. Most staff were very friendly.

There was one front desk employee who was not nice - I requested a couple of tea bags because I liked the two supplied in my room. I made the request with the night-shift staff and when I went to pick up the tea bags, it was a woman on duty. When I told her I requested some tea bags, she dumped them on the counter.

Good bed and good shower. Location was important to us due to the proximity to Salzburg Hbf.

Limited space to leave the suitcases. Only one chair at the desk. Very noisy air conditioning.

Carpet seemed to need a good clean and was leaving a strange odor, like dust.

What do you want from a 'transit hotel'? Cleanliness - comfortable bed - access to public transport - secure parking for the car. That was given.

What do you not want? Carpet in the room. And: to be consistently asked to pay additionally for every service. And: to be treated as a 'second-class customer' because you booked the room through Booking. If it weren't for Booking, we wouldn't have found Hotel Scherer.
