A&O Salzburg Hauptbahnhof was fine…read more
I was looking for more of a social hostel, so was not expecting such a cold hotel vibe. I am now pretty sure they are owned by the same group as Meininger Hotels, which explains why I'm not a fan.
The place is nice because it is close to the train station, but the old town of Salzburg (where most people visiting spend their time) is at least a 30 minute walk, so once you are out for the day you aren't gonna be able to just pop back for a second.
The rooms themselves are fine. There are no curtains around the beds, which I didn't love. It was also SO hot in the room and there wasn't any kind of fan or air circulation.
They did have a communal kitchen, which was nice!
Overall, I wouldn't come back just because of the cold and sterile vibe of the place, but it is cheap, so really to each their own.
