"Located close to the Staats bridge, its roof terrace has become one of Salzburg's major attractions."
"Reopened in December 2004 after a top-to-toe renovation, the 55-room Stein now boasts the requisite minimalist mid-century style of decor."
"A trendsetter with a loyal guest list of leisure and commercial travelers. The hotel's built-in social scene is a plus, but remember to bring earplugs if you want a view-room on a high floor." Full review
"The Hotel Stein is only a few minutes' walk of Salzburg's main attractions and also has a great terrace for either an afternoon coffee or a drink at night." Full review

"Behind historical walls, not far from Mozartplatz, find the beautiful rooms of this hotel with their classic, elegant style."
"Formerly one of Salzburg's oldest inns, built in 1377, this landmark building in the old town has managed to preserve some of its medieval cuteness despite its new trendily sparse decor."
"This is not your typical Radisson property -- in fact, its style and charm are a rather radical departure for the chain." Full review
"Located on the busy backstreet of Judengasse, this smartly converted coaching inn is one of the oldest in Salzburg, mixing top-end style with lashings of old-world charm."
"Coming from Radisson, this small, engaging traditional house is a pleasant surprise indeed." Full review

Note: River views are lovely, but avoid the rooms on the bottom floor facing the river, as these can be noisy—the bar here goes to 4 am on the weekends.

""Venerable" describes this 1372 building, one of the city's oldest inns, and its buff pink facade with iron lanterns is an impressive riverside landmark." Full review
"Step back in time at this hotel, which dates back to 1377...there are 62 rooms and suites adorned with antiques, engravings of the city and exposed wooden beams. "
