It will be perfect is each bed have a reading light

The view from the hostel is so beautiful

Stayed in September 2022

Was cash only and there only seemed to be 2 toilets (1 male 1 female) and 4 showers for the building. Also no place to get dressed privately after shower unless you grt drrssed under the wet showerhead

Location gave superb views over the city! But be prepared to either pay for the elevator beisde the nearby museum or find a hiking trail nearby (google maps offers little help due to tunnels) The staff were super friendly and a fantastic breakfast for just 5euro

The room were small and sometimes the hall smells food because of cooking in the restaurant

It is located at the top of city as a part of old castle. Also there is a restaurant which you can eat by seeing city. Dormitory room was small but clean. The staff was very helpful and kind

Breakfast only offered from 9am.

Still the dog's proverbials in terms of location, value for money, view of the city, friendly atmosphere, menu options for lunch and dinner, quality of food, etc. Can't praise it highly enough. Forget the over-priced town centre, the Stadtalm is the best address in Salzburg.

Stayed in August 2022

All food options end early and breakfast is served quite late. So don’t pre-pay if you’re going to leave early (before 0900)

Nice old building in a unique location. fantastic views of Salzburg. Just be prepared for a hike up if you don’t get the lift.

there are Monitors at both ends of the aisle which connected your room to bathroom,so it is inconvenient and feel awkward in case you not put very well your clothes and found there are monitors towards you! another thing is the hotel on the top of a small hill,very difficult to reach there at night, There are several complicated tunnels, navigation is ineffective in it, it is easy to get lost, it’s better to take a taxi to get the hotel!

the bed was comfortable , the viewing was very good!

Stayed in August 2022

The explanation of how to get there is not so clear. I spent some money on the lift to save me time and inconveniences, but you can actually reach by foot. Make sure you check both ways of how to get to the hostel.

Wonderful view, clean rooms and toilets, and nice staff. Definitely worth the visit.

The window needs a new blind

We loved the location, perfect place to sit on a hot summer's day. The staff was friendly. View and food in the restaurant were fantastic. The room was small, exactly as I expected, just fine for one night stay. Shared bathroom was clean.

There is a lift but you have to pay for it.

The location was above salzburg with stunning views. It is abit of a walk up but worth it when your at the top.

Super location on the hill with fantastic view over Salzburg !!! Very nice staff.

Stayed in July 2022

Shared bathrooms and toilets kept very clean, my only issue was the showers turn off every 10 seconds which is not a big deal but a bit annoying to keep pushing. Wifi didn't reach my room.

Great location over looking Salzburg, just be mindful you cannot drive to the top. Everything was clean, great price with breakfast included. I got unlucky with the one room that was on the next floor up quite a dangerous staircase, especially when carrying luggage but the other rooms are easily accessible.

Stayed in July 2022

lack of en suite, and difficulty getting there, was not aware of the elevator until my last day! I carried my suitcase up hundreds of steps- maybe advise how to get up to the hotel in information emails.

beautiful views, nice staff.

Stayed in June 2022

There was no desk, coat hook oder any place to lay down "things" in the room. On the second day, the kitchen closed much earlier, than the day before, i did not have information about, so i could not get a meal. And finally, in a "hostel" from experience I somehow expect a room to sit or just to stay in the evening and some place to make an own meal or a fridge to store things - there was unfortunately no possibility. But now I know about this and would still go there again, because it is just beautyful to be there!

Great Location and a great view! Friendly staff, which also made this or that possible, e. g. a forgotten towel oder a room change. Everything was clean and inviting, I enjoyed my stay. I enjoyed also to drink some wine and coffee at the terrace and while having this nice view over the city.

You don't book Stadtalm if you want a luxury en-suite room with lots of facilities. You go there for superb views and staying in the battlements of an old castle! The restaurant stops serving food at 6.00 p.m. and drinks at 7.00 p.m. in the summer, so plan ahead, as it is a long, steep walk to Spar for a snack, or to go to a city restaurant!

Stadtalm is in an incredible position, high above the city of Salzburg, with 180 degree views over the old city and in to the mountains beyond. It is a popular place for people to come for a drink or coffee and serves good food, in an outdoor seating area. The rooms seem to have been recently refurbished and were very clean. Of course, there are no en suites, so expect to walk a few yards to the shared showers/toilets. The internet worked well. There are no TV's, but you get a 5* view, better than the top hotel in Salzburg instead! There are a lot of steps (320 I think) to get to the Stadtalm, but you can also use the lift to the modern art gallery (charge) and then there is a 300 metre quite easy walk with no steps.

Wonderful location and property. It is worth noting that it is quite a trek up to the property. There is a lift that you can pay to use that reduces the trek massively.

Stayed in May 2022

Missing info about how to drive there (both Waze and Google maps instruct you to the middle of the park through the footpaths) and where to park the car Phone contact number not working after 6 PM

Stunning view Great location (lift from the nearby Museum of modern arts down to the street) Friendly staff at the restaurant

Stayed in May 2022

the bathroom was a little far from my room and I wish I had more information about the fact that I had to take the lift.

the place is clean and calm, especially the bathroom, also the view is also amazing! Staff was very very nice in helping me to carry my bags from the lift to the hostel. Even though I had to use the lift I only bought one ticket and used it to go up with my bags and down with them again when I left, the stairs are super safe and ok to use on the rest of the trip.

Located in a top of a cliff giving an enchanting view of the old town of Salzburg. Friendly staff.

Stayed in May 2022

Breakfast was a bit too late so I couldn't use this which was unfortunate, and they stopped serving food and drink earlier than I would wish.

The location is perfect and the staff were very friendly.

Location was beautiful and the staff was very nice and happy faces

Probably should have read the emails a bit more in detail but we did not realize that we would have to go up 16 flights of stairs and then wander the woods for 200 meters to get to the place. It would be good to provide some more information about the elevator and it’s hours because it is not open late.

The location is absolutely fantastic- probably the best view of Salzburg you can get anywhere. Beds were comfy and everything was really clean and nice- I didn’t expect it for a hostel but it was great.

Stayed in April 2022

We travelled by night and arrived very early to the property. We were able to leave our baggage there before the check in at 15:00 but we were not allowed to have breakfast.

The location was definitely the best of our stay - it takes a bit of effort to arrive at the top, but it is totally worth it! By day and by night the view is beautiful, and the area is very calm and in the middle of nature (and also near the castle). The decoration is also very gorgeous and peculiar (both rooms and restaurant).

Views and very friendlt staff

No 24/7 tea/coffee making nor common room access(heard views would be great) Difficult finding

getting there after dark, no towel and bad closets

the view

Stayed in April 2022

We didn't expect the location to be on top of a hill which needed to be reached by climbing stairs for 15 mins. Climbing with the luggages is a bit of hard task, also very tiring after a long extensive all day city tour on foot.

Amazing view given it is located on top of a hill, it gives a magnificent view of the entire city and the surrounding landscape and mountains. The staffs were very nice and energetic.
