  Blaue Ganz Experience

  09 May 2026

  We are currently nearly at the end of a nine day stay at the Blaue Ganz. We are having a very awesome time here. The room is extremely clean and the breakfasts are very yummy. The rooms are quite expensive. All staff are very helpful and I feel that I am able to ask for most things just by contacting reception. I would recommend this hotel because it has so many positives, location being one of them. Very enjoyable stay here in Salzburg. Vielen dank alle! 🙂

  Oozing character

  07 Mar 2026

  We stayed here for three nights at the beginning of March. Unfortunately they were carrying out maintenance work at the time and for two of our days the restaurant was closed and the morning buffet breakfast was changed to table service. However we were very well taken care of and every effort was made to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We were given an upgrade to a suite as a form of compensation.The room was lovely, quaint and olde worldly with plenty of space even though we were in the attic. The hotel itself was bang smack in the middle of the old town and oozing character. I would highly recommend a stay here. You may pay a little extra but you do get your money’s worth. Restaurant Team, Marketing at Arthotel Blaue Gans, responded to this review Thank you very much for your thoughtful feedback and for spending a few days with us at the Blaue Gans.How lovely to hear that you experienced the character of the house and enjoyed your stay in the suite under the old roof. Our rooms – each a little different – carry the traces of the centuries and are meant to feel both spacious and personal.We are grateful for your understanding regarding the maintenance work during your visit. Houses with such long histories occasionally need a little care, and we are glad that our team could make your stay comfortable and that the small upgrade helped make up for the inconvenience.It is wonderful to know that our location in the heart of Salzburg’s old town and the atmosphere of the house left a lasting impression. Your recommendation means a great deal to us.We would be very pleased to welcome you again.Warm regards,Your Blaue Gans Team

  Lovely boutique hotel experience

  02 Jan 2026

  We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is perfect, you step outside right onto the main pedestrianized shopping street (which is very attractive). The rooms are comfortable in a “quirky” way, with unusual furniture and plenty of modern art. It’s important to expect a “boutique” small hotel experience, definitely not a typical 5-star international chain hotel. Note that, in Austrian style, the double beds are actually two separate single beds pushed together, with two separate blankets/duvets. The service was friendly and helpful. There is a large secure parking garage a short walk away. We would come back here. Restaurant Team, Marketing at Arthotel Blaue Gans, responded to this review Thank you very much for your kind words and for staying with us at the Blaue Gans. How lovely to read that you enjoyed your time here.We’re delighted that you felt at ease with our location and the immediate step into Salzburg’s historic streetscape. It’s wonderful, too, that you embraced the character of our rooms – each one a small, individual world, shaped by art, history and a touch of the unexpected. As you so aptly describe it, the Blaue Gans is not a grand hotel of uniformity, but a boutique house with personality and its own rhythm.Your note about the Austrian-style beds is much appreciated – a detail that often surprises and just as often becomes part of the local experience. And it’s especially nice to hear that our team came across as friendly and helpful; quiet attentiveness is very much at the heart of how we like to host.Thank you as well for mentioning the nearby parking – a practical detail that many future guests will value.We’re happy to know you would return. Perhaps next time for another room, another artwork, another small discovery – and the same feeling of being right in the middle of it all.Your Team Blaue Gans

  Salzburg is magical and this hotel is wonderful

  19 Dec 2025

  This is a wonderful hotel with caring employees and is in such a great location. The room was spotless and so comfortable. The hotel is well run and I highly recommend staying there. Salzburg is just such a magnificent city and we've now enjoyed it both in summer and in winter for the Christmas markets and Krampus parade. So much fun! Restaurant Team, Marketing at Arthotel Blaue Gans, responded to this review Thank you very much for your kind words and for sharing your Salzburg moments with us.How beautiful that the magic of the city found a place in your stay – and that the Blaue Gans could be part of it. It delights us to hear that you felt well cared for, that your room offered comfort and calm, and that the quiet rhythm behind the scenes made your time with us feel easy and well held.Salzburg truly shows different faces through the year. Summer light, winter air, the glow of Christmas markets – and yes, the playful wildness of the Krampus parade. Like our old walls, the city changes its mood with the seasons, yet remains unmistakably itself.We are grateful for your recommendation and even more for your return – summer and winter alike. Perhaps next time with a room tucked into the older parts of the house, and a slow morning beginning with the scent of fresh coffee and bread.Until then, Salzburg – and the Blaue Gans – will be waiting quietly.
