Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel Schwarzes Rössl

On the surface this property seems great, and for the most part, is. The staff was kind and helpful, the location was great, and it was easy to check in/out. I am giving this hotel a poor rating because of the noise in its location. Myself and those I stayed with got hardly any sleep due to noise outside of the hotel throughout all hours of the night. Recognize this is not a fault of the hotel, per se but they could reinforce the windows or even warn guests ahead of time. Additionally, for the price paid for the hotel the parking should be free.

No breakfast

Great location. The room was very clean and I really loved the high quality sheets.

Affordable and centrally located.

Very well located in old town. The room provided the basics expected for a European 1-star facility. The refridgerator in the room was a plus.

Serving as a hotel in the summer months when it isn't a dorm makes this room hard to beat for price. Location is great and the rooms were very clean. We stayed in a room near the front on the second floor so it was a bit loud. Temperatures were very warm during our stay and the lack of air conditioning made it extremely warm at night. Since we are from the states this probably was worse for us but it is something that you need to take into account while traveling. Front desk staff was courteous and helpful. This hotel has its own washer and dryers which was very convenient for us on this long trip. There is not breakfast option although instant coffee (much better than US instant) is available with some cake in the morning.

I like the location, walking to the city, crossing bridges,going to the Altstadt. No mirror in the room except bathroom Friendly receptionist

I found out while I was there that this hotel actually serves as a dorm for University students from October to June). Makes complete sense. The place was very spartan and had zero amenities (toilet paper, two bars of soap and a small flat screen TV propped atop a fridge). There was a bar basically on the premises on the other side that was noisy until the wee hours of the morning. Having said that, I will give credit where credit is due: excellent location - steps from Linzergrase and the bridges across the river to the old town, the price (extremely reasonable which should have clued me in), and the staff - young University students who were super pleasant and helpful.

I stayed here in July 2022 and loved it! It was not fancy but it was clean and the staff were incredibly friendly. It is in a great central location: close to public transportation and the city center. My only complain is that there was no air conditioning, but that would not be an issue in non-summer months. I would certainly stay here again!

Very clean rooms, good wifi. Only the beds were a bit on the hard side for me. Location is really close to anywhere you want to be. Be prepared of course for some noise from the restaurants and bars next door in case you need to leave the window open

The staffs were very friendly and helpful. The place is right center of the city and very convenient to visit any place. I loved it!

Excellent location for walking sites in Salzburg

This place was such a great find! Right in the old part of town, with nearby easy parking options and the use of an elevator for my older parents. Restaurants, shops, Mozart’s birthplace are all a few steps away as well as so many of the main sights in Salzburg. They also offer free tea and coffee downstairs all day, and cake in the mornings. Would definitely stay here again!

Staffs were very good during check in and check out. Helping me with my luggages, taxi and gave me tips to roam around salzburg. The room was extremely clean and comfy, they dont have breakfast but 24hrs coffee/tea/chocolate and cookies at the common room.

Reception was friendly, room was really spacious, common toilet and shower was clean. Downside is that it’s a little expensive but other than that all’s good. Neighbourhood is nice too. Lots of restaurants nearby.

This is a great little place. The staff are friendly, the rooms are a good size and very comfortable. The location is good too - easy walking distance to the main landmarks in Salzburg. If you don't mind shared toilets/showers this is a real find

It was very hot without air conditioning. Very noisy at night time, I could not open the window.

I liked the location but property had no air conditioning just a fan to cool off the room. It was extremely hot in July.

Brought back many memories from my days at the uni.

Great location and charming area to be in. Everything was walking distance!
