Hotel Salzburger Hof
Mountain views, two spas, and steps from the lifts
About this hotel
Built between 1889 and 1907, the Hotel Salzburger Hof combines historic elegance with modern comfort, offering a stay focused on relaxation and mountain access. Its prime location means you are only steps away from the ski lifts, allowing for quick starts to your day on the slopes. After skiing, the two spa areas provide ample opportunity to unwind, with an indoor pool, hot tub, and saunas. Massage treatments and aqua gymnastics are also available for those seeking further rejuvenation. The hotel also caters to families with a playroom, while adults can enjoy traditional Austrian cuisine in the Hofkeller restaurant or cocktails at the Ritz bar. Rooms are elegantly furnished with Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day in the Alps.
- Two spa areas
- Indoor pool & hot tub
- Ski storage
- Village centre location
Our take
Hotel Salzburger Hof is my pick in Bad Gastein for families and couples who want two spa areas and everything within a few steps: the ski lifts, the thermal spa and the town centre. The indoor pool, hot tub and saunas fill the afternoon, the playroom keeps children busy, the rooms are elegant, and the hotel enjoys panoramic mountain views. A 9.0 from 636 guests confirms the standard. Travellers seeking a secluded hideaway will find the central location too busy.
- Make sure to use the ski storage facilities to keep your gear organised and ready for the next day.
- Explore both spa areas; one might be quieter or offer different amenities depending on the time of day.
- Take advantage of the hotel's proximity to the thermal spa for an additional relaxation experience.

Why guests love itWhat sold us on the Salzburger Hof was the location: steps from the ski lifts, the thermal spa and the town centre, so no car needed all week. Back at the hotel we had two spa areas to choose from, and the kids loved the indoor pool and hot tub before dinner. The playroom gave us a quiet half hour now and then, and the panoramic mountain views from our elegant room never got old.
