Perched on a rock outcrop overlooking the city, the Schloss M枚nchstein allows you to sleep in a room with a view over the rooftops of Salzburg. This fairy-tale hotel combines exclusivity and attentive service with fine dining and a convenient location. Though it鈥檚 painted a modern deep yellow, the hotel鈥檚 tower and medieval architecture hint of its past as a former fortress.
The expansive grounds of this sprawling estate along the banks of the Salzach River provide quiet seclusion. Despite this, it鈥檚 still a short walk away from the Old Town of Salzburg, making it a good base for exploring the city. If you don鈥檛 feel like walking to town for dinner, you can stay in and eat at the hotel鈥檚 renowned Glass Garden restaurant, or head to the Apollo Bar for a few cocktails and small bites.
The hotel offers a variety of room types and sizes, including the storybook Tower Room, which is spread over two floors aptly located in the tower of the castle, with a panoramic view out onto the city. If you need a day to relax during your 糖心vlog传媒, you can take advantage of the full spa.
OUR OPINION:
We love how this hotel’s location feels like you're hidden in an exclusive countryside estate, while still only being a short walk away from the Old Town of Salzburg. The staff here are attentive and sensitive, making a stay here feel special.
