A fabulous time! Next time we're in Salzburg, we're staying at Blaue Gans again. Excellent location, great rooms, great service - truly no complaints!
Plus, lots of fun and interesting art throughout the hotel and the hotel library was a charming touch.

Everything about Blue Gand was great. I highly recommend it when in Salzburg.

Was just OK. Was left wanting more from this hotel. Room was always cold despite calling down twice, they remote monitor temperature. The service and quality was more of a 3 star level than that of a 4 star.
Location was fantastic but the details of the stay at this hotel missed the mark.

The woman at the checkin was terrible. She didn't provide any information about the hotel except for which elevator to use. I had to ask about breakfast and she didn't even understand the beverage credit that was offered as a silver member. Then I was told the bar/restaurant wasn't open this day so they couldn't even provide the voucher. I was offered a small bottle of prosecco but that would not have been my choice and clearly cost less than what was offered in the ad. When I arrived for breakfast, I was told i could sit anywhere so I picked a table. I went to the buffet but couldn't find coffee and was approached where it was explained that I order at the table. Sorry but this hotel has terrible organization. Why didn't the guy at the entrance explain this? Do hotels not understand that this ruins the entire experience for their guests?

I booked a Double Room (medium) for 3 nights and the overall experience was great!
1) Location is 5* within walking distance to most places of interest and plenty of restaurants.
2). Both the room and bathroom are very spacious and clean with modern zen vibes.
3). As I did not want housekeeping, the considerate hotel staff left a bag of fresh towels and toiletries on my door daily.
4). Breakfast was good and their eggs were yummy.
The only issue is that the air-con ventilation was inconsistent and would make loud noises. This is fine by me but maybe not for the light sleepers.

Beautiful building with interesting artwork. Loved the quiet reflection/ reading room. Superb location close to parking options. Friendly and efficient staff.
Breakfast was very good with excellent professional wait staff.

Very cute hotel in an amazing location. Close to many attractions in Salzburg. All within walking distance.
My only complaint is the wifi is horrendous. It would always go out and certain parts of the room would have no wifi signal.

Everything was great but I would like to make to recommendations
1. They can offer a few English Channels in TV
2. The TV in lunge area next to restaurant showing a short seen of the movie North by Northwest 24 hours a day which is annoying. I recommend to show seems from Salzburg or other part of Austria.

Easy to get around. Need more signage.

We enjoyed our stay here. Very clean, cute and comfortable place. It’s very conveniently located in old town with tons of restaurants and shopping around. We had a minor issue with AC and the staff were so prompt and helpful at fixing it. Definitely stay here!

This hotel is in a great location in the old city. Attractions are in walking distance. The front desk staff was very efficient and made dinner reservations at an excellent restaurant the first night of our stay. The rooms are very modern and sterile. There is no mini fridge or coffee maker. The restaurant breakfast was adequate but not exceptional by European standards. We had dinner one evening in the restaurant which is alleged to be good. The service was terrible, the food mediocre, and the specialty dessert a flop. I wanted my family to see and taste a specialty-Salzburger Nockerl- that I had enjoyed on a prior trip. The Nockerl was uncooked and inedible. It should have been a beautiful soufflé. I complained to the waiter to no avail. The expensive dessert should have been removed from our bill.

Very artistic and creative. Spacious rooms. Unfortunately, the air conditioning system in our room did not work and were unable to sleep due to the hit

I loved the location! It was steps away from all the shopping and major sights. The rooms were all renovated and I loved the fact that everything in the minibar was included in your stay.
The only drawback was because they were still doing renovations, it was quite tricky to get to our room. Our room was in the second floor but we had to take the elevator up to the third floor then go down to the second floor.
My kids room was also weird as you had to walk down steps to get into the room. Made it a bit tricky especially with luggage.
But I think once the renovations are done- it should be fine.

Great location in the middle of old Salzburg. Very cool
Vibe with spacious rooms, nice bathrooms, higher end bedding and delicious breakfast. Very helpful staff. Love the art on the walls and at the entrance. We walked all over the area. It’s a great spot and very quiet too. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Location is great. Hotel staffs are very nice and helpful. Restaurant food is very good. Room layout is Ok. Too many drapes and feels muggy. Bathroom is great. Hotel is clean. I love the free hot tea everyday.

The staff is excellent! I cannot say enough about that.
However, I would not recommend having a car. Public transport or taxi is easier to reach the hotel. Also, the beds themselves are very hard, but you can ask the staff to put down a mattress cushion - they are glad to do it.
Food there is excellent!

We enjoyed our stay at this property, so gorgeous. We booked the city flat and it was so spacious. The reception was great and very helpful. It is also located conveniently, walking distance to all attractions and next to bus stop for farther destinations. And we enjoyed the hotel restaurant that was delicious!

Staff was extremely lovely. Breakfast was great! A few tweaks - change the light sensor in the room WCs to a night light and where the guest can turn on/off the light in case of nighttime visits - bright light hard to get back to sleep. It was a great hotel and would highly recommend to anyone! We loved it.

Very good location in the old part of Salzburg and convenient to see the sites and local shopping area.

A very comfortable and well appointed hotel in an idyllic location. The room was spacious and well designed with a large bathroom and separate sitting area. We loved the history of the hotel and position opposite the horse pond and backing on to the shopping street. I highly recommend this hotel.
