Cocoon Salzburg
Staff were great. Room was cute and clean though my shower door had a bit coming off the door but it don’t cause too much of an issue. In a great location near the train station and tram/bus link straight into town if you don't wanna walk the 10 minutes. Would stay again if I’m ever in Salzburg.

arte Hotel Salzburg
Went for the Christmas Market and I was given a corner room facing the mountains and it was wonderful. It's not far from the train station and Starbucks and still walking distance from the shopping district. The bed was very comfortable as well

The location was great and according to my daughters, the sofa bed was very comfortable. The bed & pillows in the main bedroom were so comfortable, and the underfloor heating in the bathroom was lovely. It was also a very straight-forward self Check-in process.
