Good central location in Salzburg.
Stayed in standard room which we found to be constantly hot and ensuite to be extremely small and awkward to use- Room No.301 to be avoided.Told by receptionist that all standard rooms are similar,would suggest superior room necessary for comfort.

Great location in the old city
The Hotel Elefant is in a great location in the old city. We stayed one night, and it was the perfect place for us. We enjoyed walking the streets, hiking up to the amazing views on the ridge/mountain above the old city, visiting churches and museums, and eating delicious food. The room was comfortable and snug, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was so delicious. They showed us how to catch the bus to the airport at the end of our stay.

Great location in the old city.
I was in room 505 which faces the front of the hotel and the street. I can see that it might be noisy during peak tourist season, but it did have air conditioning which could off set any noise. I was there end of June and it was fine. Only complaint - the bed was too soft and the pillow too hard. Recommend that they change them.

Excellent hotel in the heart of the old town
This is an excellent hotel in the heart of the old town but also very close to the river and easy to get to the other side of the city. We had a superior room that was large and also had a sofa as well as a large bed. The bathroom was large too. Although the room was only on the 2nd floor and facing the road it was very quiet. The air con was a bonus too. The staff were all excellent and very friendly and helpful. My only minor critisism was that the hot food at breakfast was often only lukewarm but generally the breakfast was ok. I'd definitely recommend this hotel.

No Wifi in room. In most categories this is a wondrful hotel, with good location and staff. However, when I travel I don't want to sit in the hallway or lobby to get the connected to the Internet.

Great find in Salzburg!
Booked thie Hotel Elefant in Salzburg and was very pleased with the hotel. The location is excellent, right in the center of the old city in the foot traffic only area. The Hotel is nice and the view from our room was great-a very nice view of the Salzburg Castle. The breakfast was very good. If you are arriving by car, it is a few block walk to the nearest parking garage. We took the long route on arrival, not knowing the way very well, as Salzburg streets in the area surrounding the hotel are currently under construction, I will plan to stay here again on my next visit to Salzburg.

Changed Plans to Stay Longer
Initially I was annoyed that it was so hard to get into this hotel from the parking lot. (It's longer than the 5 mins, especially when you drag roller luggage over cobblestone.) However, once you arrive it's all worth it. The hotel is charming and fashionable, clean and comfortable, and is in a perfect location. I appreciated all the little extras worked in the furnishings of the rooms; side tables with reading lamps, hidden drawers, etc... Even the hallways were well decorated and comfortable! Two choices for inhouse restaurants. The only other negative was that in my room the internet connection wasn't fantastic.

Fantastic location. Room a bit small but adequate and very comfortable. We had a room at the back of the hotel which was very quiet and had a great sleep in a comfy bed. Breakfast was very good with a good selection of continental and hot food such as scrambled egg, bacon and sausages. Staff very attentive.

Nice location
Pros: Great location Nice breakfast Cons: We arrived there 1.5 hours early for the 1:30 pm Sound of the Music Tour. We asked to check in our luggage since the room was not available. The front desk staff just ask you to leave your luggage in the hallway near the stairs. I do not feel comfortable leaving my luggage just sitting out there. Usually hotels would take your luggage to the back for storage and give you a number. There should be a ramp for seniors and heavy luggage at the entrance instead of steps.

This hotel is ideally located for exploring Salzburg and provides comfortable, clean, friendly accommodation but does not provide, in my opinion the 4 Star facilities that could normally be expected.

A lovely hotel in the old town of Salzburg.
We arrived on a Sunday morning due to an early flight . Hotel receptionist stored our luggage and checked us in and said our room would be ready at 3pm. We were ok with that . Went and had a lovely lunch in the Hotel restaurant .Our room was larger than expected , with a King size bed and a nice area for sitting. With 2 armchairs,a small round table ,2 armchairs ,the usual desk area, chair, TV and mini bar. Excellent breakfast with plenty of choices . All staff were welcoming and helpful ,we were acknowledged always in and around the hotel. Would certainly stay here again .

Location of hotel in the old town was great, but the room was a little too compact and there was a lot of noise from local road work. If we came again we would probably stay on the other side of the river.
