Hotel Heffterhof

Hotel Heffterhof

8/10 Good
"Only stayed for one night and mostly booked this hotel for the car park. The room was spacious and a little basic but functional. There were no tea or coffee facilities in the room (kettle was provided when asked but we had our own tea) and overall we thought that the hotel needed some maintenance. The breakfast was much better than expected with a good selection. The bus stop into town (bus 6) just opposite the hotel and it was easy enough to get around. Reception staff were great."

  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate based on various factors, including the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you find a better deal on your stay in a Salzburg hotel. For those seeking something a bit different, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price seems a bit high, we might suggest alternative dates that could offer more affordable options to assist you in finding a better value.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels located near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Salzburg's superb public transport connections, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel situated a bit further out that remains well-connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
