"Located in the heart of old town which makes the hotel the perfect location in Salzburg. Short walk to new town, and historic sites. While dinner at the hotel restaurant was note worthy and we enjoyed sitting outside. There was one Vegetarian option available. The breakfast was average and you’ll find better breakfast options immediately nearby. Though I must mention that the restaurant staff during breakfast was exceptional. They went above and beyond. The hotel front desk and hotel porter were friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. Our rooms were across the cobblestone street from the main building which felt like an extended wing. We enjoyed crossing the short stretch of cobblestone with a popular local cafe between. The rooms are spacious and the interior decor is old world rustic charm. Everything in excellent condition. Highly recommended."

"Fantastic hotel and amazing staff. We had some difficulties arriving by car with street closures and the hotel staff went well above and beyond to help us. The rooms are fantastic, very comfortable and clean. Breakfast incredible and you cant beat the location. Misael and Julia stood out as fantastic staff that really made our trip special."

"Let me give the hotel its due first, and there is plenty of it: the Goldener Hirsch holds one of the loveliest addresses in Salzburg, and the staff one meets are warm and unfailingly courteous. Had it been content merely to be charming, this would be a happier notice. But it bills itself as something grander, and grandeur is a promise one must keep. A gesture arranged well in advance to mark my wife's fortieth was forgotten; reminded discreetly mid-stay, I was assured it would be handled at once — and it was forgotten again, which takes a certain commitment. The promised IT man never came, the television and network were feeble, and milk arrived only after pursuit. One suspects two hotels: a charming one that answers the emails, and a forgetful one that runs the building. On money it shows not noblesse but its meter: throttled internet unless you pay extra, and €100 each way for the ten-minute "executive" run from the airport that a taxi does for €20. The bones are admirable — building, position, people. What is missing is reliability and largeness of spirit, which are rather the point of the word "Luxury." A good hotel, then; not, on this evidence, the five-star one on the door. I had resolved to say none of this — not at the desk, and certainly not online — lest it cast a shadow over my wife's birthday. The review exists for a single reason: the hotel would not stop soliciting it — by email, no less, the same machinery that could not convey a single message to our room. They wanted their review; here, at last, it is. Voilà."

"Rating assumes the quirky non-standard old world charm rooms are acceptable, the hotel provides the greatest convenience relative to location near shopping, sights and restaurants. Service staff across reception, restaurant, housekeeping, luggage handling, are all excellent. Food wise in terms of breakfast and dinner was average. WiFi average. Recommended."

"Goldener Hirsch supersedes every expectation you have. The room is luxurious with spacious cozy beds and music in the bath. Soft bathrobes and slippers, fresh flowers, and lighting on motion sensors- every detail makes it special. Yulia and Micael made our 3 night stay so easy by making reservations, calling taxis, and holding our bikes for us. We truly enjoyed our complimentary prosecco and homemade dessert from their bar. Goldener Hirsch staff deserve to be applauded! We will remember this stay forever! Thank you for making it so special! (Oh and I forgot to say that their location is superb! On a beautiful street in the Old Town.) 10/10 Best Hotel I’ve stayed at in Europe, hands down!"
