During my recent trip to the picturesque town of Salzburg, we had the pleasure of staying at the charming Pension Ballwein. From the moment we arrived, we was greeted with warmth and hospitality by Simon and Daniela, making us feel right at home. Simon and Daniela were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Their attentive nature and willingness to assist with any inquiries or requests truly made a positive impact on our overall experience. One of the highlights of our stay was the delicious and diverse breakfast provided each morning. Additionally, the cleanliness of the rooms was impeccable. Housekeeping services were carried out regularly, and I always returned to a well-maintained and tidy room after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. The location of Pension Ballwein was also ideal, offering easy access to nearby attractions and scenic spots. All in all, my stay at Pension Ballwein was a memorable one, largely thanks to the friendly and welcoming Simon and Daniela. I wholeheartedly recommend this lovely pension to anyone visiting Salzburg, and we look forward to returning in the future.

    Friendly staff - very helpful Good breakfast - a wide choice of foods - I think anybody can find something to their taste. I would have liked to see some scrambled or fried eggs though. The room was clean and relatively quiet. Parking space on the grounds - it costs a out 12 Euros a day, but in the city that is relatively cheap. You have a small restaurant with a few good choices for an evening mea. Good location - City center on foot in 5-10 minute sreachable. Good view of the castle just in front of the hotel.

    Great location, near to grocery shops, restaurants and small shops! Walking distance to the city center and main sightseeing attractions. Free coffee and water in the lounge. Despite being in the city, it is a quiet pleasant hotel. Nice staff and they also provided lunch pakets when leaving too early for breakfast.

    There was a great choice for breakfast which was served in a lovely bright room. Sandra is a great host, she gave us lots of information about places to go and which buses to get. The "pension" is spotless and very comfortable.

    The hostel was in a great location, on a quiet street halfway between the train station and the city centre. Staff were friendly and always around to answer any questions. There were lots of ladies showers, and they were kept very clean. Rooms were spacious and included a desk and a secure locker each (which locked with your room key). The bunk beds were really solidly built and comfortable (not the flimsy squeaky type you get in most cheap hostels!) Coffee, tea and juice available at reception throughout the day was a nice bonus.

    Great location, easy access between the train station and the city center, very quiet area. The apartment was very clean, spacious, with everything you need in the bathroom and a pleasant surprise - the free mini bar, although we only stayed one night. Very easy communication on whatsapp with the hosts who answered our questions quickly. We gladly recommend.
