Hotel Goldgasse (Salzburg, Austria) 16 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"From Salzburg you might expect wedding-cake opulence and a relentless focus on opera. So when a hotel like Hotel Goldgasse challenges your expectations with a healthy dose of modern design, it’s a welcome surprise. A central Old Town location on the south bank of the Salzach has much to do with the hotel’s appeal, barely a stone’s throw from the university and the Baroque cathedral. Goldgasse’s public spaces and guestrooms retain some period ambience, clad in classic stucco and antique stone flooring. On the ground floor, the hyper-regional Gasthof Goldgasse preserves the essence of a traditional Austrian inn, down to the knots in the ceiling beams and the wine list bursting with national pride. You’ll get a sense of the building’s heritage in the copper tableware; these <em>Kupferpfandl’n</em> reflect the livelihood of the skilled coppersmiths who once ran a workshop here. Be sure to try the city’s famed specialty, Salzburger Nockerl: golden-brown peaked dumplings crowned with powdered sugar." - Tablet Hotels
