Salzburg hotel???

[Sarabi's Cubs]

We've booked the Once Upon a Fairytale Germany ABD and are hoping to add a day at the end in Salzburg. It seems like a quick train ride from Munich. I was just wondering if anyone here has done that and has any tips or recommendations for hotels. I know there used to be an Austria ABD trip. Does anyone know what hotels they used in Salzburg?

Thanks!

We spent a day in Salzburg last summer, but we didn't stay overnight, so I can't help with hotel suggestions. But we had lunch at the restaurant at the fortress atop Festungsberg Mountain and both my dish and my son's were just fantastic, so I can at least suggest a place for lunch. The view is also amazing.

Laurie, I have the catalog from 2009, which has the itinerary for the "Storybook Kingdoms" trip that included Salzburg. ABD stayed at the Sheraton Salzburg Hotel.

Thanks Tobi! That hotel looks pretty convenient, and not too pricey (especially given the $1000 ABD post-night cost in Munich!).

Our family lived in Munich for nearly 2 years with my husbands job. We frequently went to Salzburg because it was 1 1/2 hours by car. The train ride should be about the same. We did take my in-laws for a weekend at Christmas and stayed at the Renaissance Hotel, a Marriott property. It was very nice and affordable for an "American" style hotel. We traveled a lot while we were living there and tried to stay with American brands for familiarity and consistency. We had 2 little girls so anything that made travel easier was better.

I loved the Goldener Hirsch and stayed there a couple of times when I lived in Germany.

It's Munich during Ocktoberfest. That's why.
