Amazing experience! I saw the hotel last year but did not enter grounds out of respect to sign posted. Even if one night, treat yourself! Amazing experience.

Such a beautiful and special property, with the Sound of Music history. Breakfast by the lake was SO lovely and yummy. Adding ceiling AC to the room is the only change we would request.
8.0
The property and views were exquisite! Our room was very tiny and very, very hot despite having fans (no air conditioning). The breakfast in the palace was amazing. The property is far from old town so we had to Uber each time to go anywhere. You can also use bikes at no extra cost.

The hotel needs complete renewal. No air condition makes sleep difficult. There was a fountain in the garden which made a lot of noise during the night when trying to sleep with open windows. Wifi was very weak at second floor.
But the breakfast with magnificient view was unforgetable. The food was delicious.

How come this hotel doesn't have air conditioning! 90 degrees hot and no AC...on top of that the rooms are not insulated...horrible!
The hallways need painting,Also they don't have a restaurant therefore if you don't eat downtown, you are screwed.
A tip: if you want to visit, get there by car, enter the hotel ( you don't need anything to get in) park your car, walk up to the gardens, take pics, go back to your car and out
And DON’T PAY 250 euros for a " sauna"

From start to finish my family had a wonderful experience at Hotel Schloss Leopoldskron. From the moment the gates open you can see the care for the grounds and the effort that is shown to make everyone feel welcome. Staff was exceptional. In particular, Veronica made our trip extra special. She was engaging, warm, kind , and professional…. She was “simply” amazing. I would come back in a heartbeat.

We stayed one night in the palace while our sons stayed in the annex building. If you can afford it, stay in the palace. Our sons' room was fine and clean, but more like a college dorm room while the palace room was very charming with large windows, high ceilings, and cozy furnishings. The breakfast was amazing and the views over the lake were incredible! We wished we would have booked two nights here during our stay in Austria.
6.0
The hotel rooms were not located in the building that was advertised on the listing. We were expecting to stay in the main villa where the Sound of Music was filmed, not in some building built right next to it. Additionally, the hotel lacked air conditioning, and Salzburg is extremely humid, so we were never able to cool off. I would recommend skipping staying at the hotel and instead visiting the property if you are a Sound of Music fan. However, I must say that the breakfast in the main villa was incredible, and the staff was extremely friendly.

The hotel was fine. What I didn't like was Expedia that sold the accommodation in Australia had the price in $'s but it was U.S.$ not AUD. If you read the fine print this was stated but who reads the fine print. Deceptive and wrong.

Amazing views and location and friendly staff. Suite bathrooms disapointing

I’ve stayed here three times prior to this year’s visit. I’ve never been so disappointed - so much so, I wouldn’t stay here again. Construction right outside our guest rooms which was loud and some made taxis unavailable to pick us up at the reception, the secret library staircase closed without any advance notice, hairs all over our bed, no body wash for two nights - just an empty bottle that housekeeping never bothered to fill without us pestering them, we called to the front reception from our room and they said they were too “busy” to send anything up so when we walked down to it there was nobody in the lobby. Awful service from housekeeping and for the insane prices we paid. When I told management at checkout, they offered a “sorry.” We stayed at the Radisson Blu two nights after here and the different in the staff care and housekeeping was incredible. We felt very welcomed there, where we felt like an inconvenience at the Schloss Leopoldskron.

The stay was amazing. The grounds, views, and property all breath taking. The only downside was purchasing a Salzburg card from the hotel. (Felt this could have been promoted more maybe on arrival!) We got into the town and were unable to use the cards as we had been given Childrens ones. Had our money refunded from the hotel but a little embarrassing and inconvenient.

Unique boutique hotel on large private park with lovely gardens overlooking a lake with mountains in the background. Breakfast in the castle-best to be had in Salzburg!
5.0
Beautiful hotel. Stunning historical palace for breakfast. A wander round the other rooms not to be missed. The library is stunning. Grounds are lovely. Only complaint was the bedside shelf was dirty with a half eaten apple and cosmetic from previous occupants in the room!

This was the very best breakfast I have had at a hotel. The options were unique and delicious. The staff was so attentive and made me feel genuinely welcome.
4.0
Beautiful building in picturesque setting with lots of history. Spotlessly clean. We stayed in a Palace suite which was fantastic, the free mini bar was a nice addition. Unfortunately our room didn’t have a bath which at 400€ plus was abit of a surprise. Reception staff friendly and we’re happy to deliver a takeaway order to our room (no evening dining options at the hotel which is a shame and frankly a missed opportunity in our opinion) Breakfast was lovely and in the beautiful marble hall which was a real treat. There’s very few services at hotel, we had to drag our bags down a gravel drive which wasn’t ideal.
5.0
What a wonderful experience and stay!!! The room was spacious and right next to the palace which we enjoyed exploring. The breakfast was delicious!!! Such a memorable stay!
4.0
The grounds the hotel is set on are beatiful and the palace is, too obviously. The same can’t be said about the rooms in the Meierhof block. The room I was given had the filthiest floors I had ever seen in a hotel room in my entire life as a traveller. I reported this to reception and the issue was half heartedly dealt with by mopping the worst affected area quickly. I left the room and then came back at night to see that the bathroom floor was absolutely disgusting, too. Spoke to a different receptionist who was very apologetic but the manager would not show their face. Very disappointing. I was offered a small refund which I accepted as I am not out for freebies but this issue should and could have been handled differently by giving me a different room and not let me be confronted with a housekeeper and maintenance person only to find more problems later. Breakfast in the palace was great. The staff were wonderful, attentive and polite. Breakfast selection was great.

They are a treasure! Perfection. The grounds and breakfast ballroom were gorgeous. The food was delicious. We spent one night in each building. Pick the suite in the main building. It was spotless, huge, had a great bed, perfect staff, a museum of a library, and opulence at every turn. Simply amazing.

Everything about this property is beautiful and well preserved, yet comfortable. Parking is plentiful, our room was a nice size for 2 adults and 2 children, and breakfast was delicious. We walked into town to enjoy the Winter Market, and stayed an extra day because Salzburg is charming. We loved our stay!
4.0
I did not stay in the palace, I was roomed in an adjacent building which had slanted roof (I’m 6’3”) a slanted roof stair case (head impact), curtains for division within the room, a single feather pillow and limited space for personal items ... To say Im pissed off is an understatement, however the allowance of at least having breakfast in the palace was exceptional Overall the listing in Orbitz was a sham and should be withdrawn ...
10.0
My wife and I spent four nights at Leopoldskron, and had a very enjoyable stay. We chose to pay for the upgrade and stayed in the palace, rather than the neighboring building, and there is no question that it was money well-spent. The grounds are lovely, even in winter, and the breakfast is one of the finest you can have in Austria - comparable to the Sacher Hotel, and that is far more expensive to stay in, but lacks the charm and history of Leopoldskron.

Nice hotel with big rooms
5.0
Like most people we stayed in the building adjacent to the palace building but being able to walk around the lovely grounds with the beautiful lake view was wonderful. Breakfast in the palace itself surely must be one of the most impressive settings possible (it was also very delicious).
10.0
The location is amazing. We stayed here / years ago. The staffs were very friendly. The receptionist, Julie, greeted us with big smile😊. The breakfast is one of the best among other hotels. Especially having breakfast in thd historic room was exceptional. Rooms were clean, quiet and well maintained. Parking is on the site and free.
We hope to stay again.

We had a good stay at the Hotel Schloss Leopoldskron. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our favorite parts were the breakfast in the main building and exploring the library and rooms. Would stay here again.

Stayed in the Meierhof building with my husband and two kids. Beautiful property and grounds, short drive into downtown Salzburg. Breakfast in the main palace was absolutely spectacular, but the hotel bar was very limited. Was hoping to take advantage of the bicycles on-site and ride around the lake, but the weather was not good. I would definitely stay here again.

Love the historical aspect of staying in a castle. It was fun to wander the buildings and grounds. Breakfast was great!
5.0
Such a tranquil setting, we loved our stay here ! The main reason we chose this hotel was its links to the filming of Sound of Music but even without that it is just a beautiful and serene place. It just takes your breath away, the dining hall, fabulous library, gorgeous garden and the lakefront... ! Very helpful and friendly staff too. The rooms we stayed in are a bit dated and could do with an upgrade, but other than that loved the stay.

If you are a "Sound of Music" fan, then staying here should probably be on your bucket list. The hotel, the grounds, and the views across the lake are beautiful. They had a wonderful breakfast at the palace every morning and also have bikes to borrow. Not walkable to old town Salzburg, but there are options for bus or car to do that. Still fairly close, so it only took a few minutes to old town and parking garage. The room was beautiful, spacious, and updated. No air conditioning, but we didn't really need it as the windows provided cooling in the evening.
