Hotel berhampiran SPAR express, Gemeinde Anthering

Cocoon Salzburg - 10-13 July 2022 done both not all pix only the room This hotel is almost right across from the train station, on a corner, very easy to find - white 7 story building with a big butterfly outline on the glass doors. Inside the lobby is part of the bar and breakfast room. Checkin is super friendly. Room is small but wins the cuteness prize. Carpeting and walls in hallway all green with small leafy patterns like in a jungle. Bed is firm and very comfy, bedding is an interesting weave feeling like soft cotton paper, and 4 big fluffy pillows. No amenities in room such as phone, electric kettle or coffee makers, or even a small fridge. Has safe however. The hanging rattan chair is cute but takes up some room. Day couch by the window, no tables, night stands or desk - or chair for that matter (no room anyway). The most minimal amount of furniture, the idea I guess is all about lounging around so you don't ever need to sit up anywhere. Not much surface to layout stuff just a sort of narrow shelving on the wall next to the TV. Bathroom also tiny but everything is new and modern and the rain shower is the best ever. Takes a bit of maneuvering to get our two large suitcases settled. We are on the 6th floor so have a bit of view of mountains over the top of a building across the street. Windows have electrically controlled shutters outside (push button inside). You get a nice bar of chocolate and 5 euros for opting out housekeeping (although they said something about not continuing this practice). Floor uncarpeted. Aircon good. Wifi seems pretty fast. Nightlight under the bed is motion sensitive, so it comes on whenever you are moving around the room. Breakfast is good with scrambled and pre shaped fried eggs, sausage and bacon-like ham. Good selection of pastries and croissants and breads. Half dozen different kinds of tea all loose so need to scoop into a teabag in order to steep which is interesting and pretty fancy. Selection of cold meats as well and cheese. Tomato, cucumber and fruit. They don't check to see if you have breakfast included which is strange because it's extra charge for breakfast so not automatically included in all rooms. Overall a pretty good breakfast and food gets replenished pretty quickly. Seating tends to run out at peak time and people will ask to share your table if there is room.

Perfect location, nice clean rooms, but horrible security and service. They mistakenly gave access to my room to another guest so the other guest ended up opening the door on me. Then second time housekeeping also went in without knocking the door, and then the worst is the third time the housekeeping entered the room even though I have “do not disturb” hanged on the door without even knocking and no apologizing no nothing. Horrible privacy. At check-in, staff forgot to give me back my ID so I called from the room ofcourse nobody answered so I had to go all the way down again to pick it up.

When I was looking for a hotel for a 1-night stay in Salzburg, I stumbled upon the listing for the Hyperion and took a chance. I wasn't familiar with the Hyperion hotel brand and didn't know much about Salzburg. Now, I have fallen under the spell of both the hotel and the city. The Hyperion is a fairly new hotel and it is in pristine shape. The room is rather generously sized compared to most of the European hotels I have stayed in thus far. The bathroom was particularly good -- with an American-style shower that featured both a handheld wand and a rain shower head. The separate water closet was a plus. The technology in the room (especially the lighting tech) is impressive, if not slightly confusing. Nice touch to have the Nescafe machine and the Mozart chocolates. The bed was very comfortable. The location, next to Mirabell Gardens, was great. The hotel staff was helpful. We arrived early, and the front desk gave us tips on how to spend our afternoon, drawing out some local attractions on the map and suggesting we get a Salzburg card (we already had them). They also gave us a recommendation for dinner, but we were turned away at the restaurant, which was full. In stead, we dined at the restaurant in the hotel, which was quite nice. Service was solid. Breakfast is a tad expensive, but they do offer a wide assortment of breakfast items (hot and cold) as well as eggs made to order. Champagne was also available for mimosas. Nice touch.

Nice and comfortable. Room carpet of music sheets. A cup in the room was not cleaned properly but room service changed the dirty cups and more coffee and tea and a 1ltr glass bottle of water the next day. Soundproofing is not so good. We got the room next to the lifts and we could hear people outside very loudly. A safety locker for keeping your important things. The TV you can reach to the back for HDMI but no casting your mobile for YouTube and stuff. Chromecast won't work with their wifi.

Booked this hotel for our ski holiday as only 60-90 mins from many ski resorts. Breakfast is amazing with lots of choice and every day had scrambled eggs and bacon plus many other options. Bus too opposite with number 4 bus running about every 20 mins until about 2230 hours. Cost for single is €3 euros. (Only take cash on buses). They also offer a day ticket for €4.50 but not sure if you have to buy this from a machine as didn’t offer on bus. You can buy a return ticket! We never had an issue with parking although the car park was often busy as the Sushi restaurant is very popular. There is also a Chinese buffet restaurant opposite called Huy Cook and Eat. ({€25). Food was good. They offered lots of raw fish and I wasn’t aware that they actually cook it for you! Rooms were cleaned every day and shower was awesome. I would have given this 5 stars but some of the reception staff weren’t very helpful. Eg. Not knowing any information about basic stuff like the buses!

The hotel location is good . Reception is nice and friendly too. Too bad there is a heavy smoke smell in our room and the reception is unable to replace the room for us . But she is kind and polite enough to request the room service to change the pillow and bedsheet which were contaminated by the smoke smell

Nach 12 Jahren Abstinenz waren wir wieder hier zu Gast und hatten ein absolut großartiges Erlebnis. Es blieb kein Wunsch offen. Das historische Hotel bietet alles was dazu gehört. Geräumige Zimmer mit antikem Mobiliar, sehr gepflegt und sauber mit wunderschönem Blick in den Garten und die Terrasse. Die Küche ist definitiv auf Haubenniveau mit sehr gehobener österreichischer und traditioneller Prägung. Wir waren begeistert. Auch sehr zu empfehlen ist die Weinbegleitung zu den Gerichten. Das Personal und der Empfang waren mehr als herzlich, aufgeschlossen und zuvorkommend. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder und Kompliment an ihr Haus. S. Winter / Paderborn
