If you are traveling with little luggage, we recommend parking in the garage. It is a 5-minute walk to the hotel via the Altstadt-Toscaninihof exit.

If you want to drive up to the hotel to unload , please drive to the center of Salzburg. If you come over the Staatsbrücke (the central bridge in Salzburg), at the end of the bridge drive straight ahead into the town hall arch and stop in front of the bollards.

If you are coming from the direction of “Franz-Josef-Kai” or “Hanusch-Platz”, immediately turn sharply right after the traffic lights in front of the “Staatsbrücke” and stop in front of the bollards.

To the left of the bollards on the wall there is a keypad where you enter our access code (if you don’t already have one, the keypad has an intercom to the hotel).

When the bollard has lowered, drive on down the next lane

left and immediately right again to the hotel, where you can stop briefly to unload.

Parking information: Dear guests, we ask for your understanding that we cannot offer a valet service. Of course, we will explain to you where and how you can best park your car during your stay.
