Located directly at Lake Wolfgang, Jugendgästehaus Sankt Gilgen offers free WiFi and free private parking. The Zwölferhorn Cable Car is 400 metres away.

A shared lounge is available at the property, and the rooms come with a seating area. Great location. Very good value. We were a mother and adult daughter traveling together. We had a room with a private bathroom. All was very clean and comfortable. Location across the street from lake was perfect. Free parking. Breakfast was basic, but good. My first time staying in a hostel and I was very pleased.

Situated in Salzburg, YoHo - International Youth Hostel is only a 10-minute walk from the main train station. The property is set 500 metres from Mirabell Palace, 600 metres from Mozarteum and a 9-minute walk from Kapuzinerberg & Capuchin Monastery. Free WiFi is included. The staff was great. The bartender was the sweetest guy I've met at a hostel environment. The place is clean, breakfast is good, the neighborhood is close to everything and very safe to be out at night.

At Eibinghof BED & BREAKFAST & SWIM each room comes with a desk and a flat-screen TV. We liked everything. The pool!! Breakfast was very good - great homemade cakes and scrambled eggs. It is very close to Saalbach and to Hinterglamm to. You can park righ before the building. The Joker card is great thing.

Institut St.Sebastian is situated in the Old Town Salzburg, at the foot of the Kapuzinerberg Mountain. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.

There is a roof terrace, and covered bicycle storage available. Institut Saint Sebastian has an excellent location near Mirabell Gardens and the Old City of Salzburg. Even though there is a lot of activity in the surrounding area, the Institut was always quiet. I would definitely stay here again.

Jugendherberge Bad Gastein features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and bar in Bad Gastein. Located around 48 km from Zell am See-Kaprun Golf Course, the hostel with free WiFi is also 1.5 km away from Bad Gastein Waterfall. The property is non-smoking and is located less than 1 km from Bad Gastein Railway Station. Very nice location, directly on the Radweg Gasteinertal (also Alpe Adria), away from the core town of Bad Gastein, so quieter and also not too far from the train station. The receptionist was also very helpful, suggesting food recommendations and also the route to take for cycling to the Tauernschleuse.

At the hostel, all rooms are fitted with a desk. The Keep Eco Rooms provides certain units that feature a balcony, and every room includes a shared bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer. At the accommodation, the rooms include a seating area. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Worth going with kids to "taste" the simple living, to teach them to value everything. A proof that the recycling is possible. Close to the train station, to the center too, was just perfect for us.

Enjoying a unique location on the Mönchsberg mountain in the centre of the city, the Stadtalm Naturfreundehaus offers panoramic views over Salzburg from all rooms, the restaurant and the garden.

The simply furnished dormitories of the Naturfreundehaus have wooden floors. Bathroom facilities are shared. The view is absolutely exceptional! Easily the best view of the city you can get and it was a very cool, old building which I thought was awesome to stay in. Plus, there are really nice walking trails nearby with equally incredible views. My check in was super easy, just got the keys from a lock box. The facilities were clean, only one bathroom, but I didn’t have any issues. Definitely worth the cost, I will stay here again!!
