Hotel Goldener Hirsch Salzburg
In the baroque centre of Salzburg, City of Mozart, in the famous Getreidegasse stands the Hotel Goldener Hirsch, rich in its tradition of luxury and combining the romantic magic of the 15th century with the luxury of a modern hotel.

The Hotel Goldener Hirsch in Salzburg, today meeting-place for the international society, dates back to 1407, when it opened its doors as an inn. Since 1564 the name Guldener Hirsch appears. The facades of the historical building and the adjoining building, which was acquired in the seventies, have been kept simple and unobtrusive. Understatement to the outside, charming luxury only behind the bulky old door. Decorated in local Austrian style and updated with state-of-the art amenities, the hotel harmoniously combines tradition and style. The hotel completed an extensive renovation in June 2019.

In 70 rooms and suites carefully curated antiques such as shoemaker‘s benches transformed into tables combine effortlessly with the latest televisions and coffee machines by Illy. Traditional “Fleckerlteppich“ rugs complement the solid wood floors as well as hand-printed fabrics in pink, cornflower blue and red from the Salzburg firm Jordis. Refreshing sleep is assured in king-size and twin beds. Generously proportioned bathrooms in marble with porcelain by Villeroy & Boch offer shower or tub, or shower and tub. The view out onto Herbert-von-Karajan-Platz or Getreidegasse enchant, while soundproof windows ensure that rooms are always quiet and peaceful.

Restaurant Goldener Hirsch is internationally celebrated for traditional, fine Austrian cuisine. Its adjacent landmark Restaurant s’Herzl, has become a focal point of life in Salzburg: a place where hotel guests mingle with local residents. For traditional cocktails or fine Austrian and international wines, The Bar Goldener Hirsch's covered inner courtyard offers an authentic atmosphere.
