Wonderful family trip
My husband, my almost 4-year-old, and I stayed in a city flat. It was a very lovely room with lots of space for everyone. My in-laws stayed in a more standard room and were very pleased with the size of the room and the bathroom. All staff (reception, restaurant, and cleaning staff) were very helpful and pleasant. The building was charming with many of interesting, old features mixed with modern elements. The location was also perfect- next to the bus stop to go to the airport and right in the heart of the old town. If back in Salzberg, I would definitely stay here again. The entire family had nothing but good things to say about this hotel.

Will Stay Again!
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.

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.

Hotel is nice but the service is terrible.
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?

Worth the stay!
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.

Good hotel, bad WIFI
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.

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!

Modern Hotel - Convenient Location
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.
