Pension Katrin

I did a direct booking with Pension Katrin and the process was easy. Its location is in a quiet residential neighbourhood, but with easy access to the Innestadt and the rest of the city. The junior suite is very spacious, with a comfortable bed, sofa and bathroom. Everything is spotlessly clean. Sandra, whose family home this is, was easy to communicate with and extremely helpful from booking to check-out. She also helped us with the orientation of the city, its Christmas markets, and recommended places to explore and restaurants too. The Christmas-special baked goodies made by Sandra were a wonderful treat! The breakfast is hearty, with a good variety and some nice local touches. It's always great to be able to stay in family-run pensions like these because of the warmth and personal feel, which left us with a deeper connection to Salzburg.

Had an excellent time staying at Pension Katrin. Location is only a 20 minute walk downtown and situated in a neighborhood with many food and drink options. Property was extremely clean. Sandra is a great and pleasant host! The breakfast spread was the best we had of the places we stayed on our trip.

From the moment my family and I arrived at Pension Katrin we were put at ease by the warm friendly welcome of our host, Sandra. The hotel is spotless due to the keen eye of Sandra and her dedicated team of cleaners. The rooms are large and spacious with a mini bar and safe. The breakfasts were a delight, so fresh and with a multitude of choices. The hotel is only a short walk to the old city, or there is a bus stop very close; bus 5. Sandra has lots of of information displayed in the reception. We delighted in her enthusiasm and knowledge for the city. Highly recommend.

Danke, Frau Sandra Terler, for your singular hospitality! Easy, quick bus access to/from airport, train station, & city center. Safe and quiet neighborhood retreat, with nearby conveniences. Spotless accommodations, as well as BEST breakfast out of all our Austrian pension stays. Affordable & personable, it doesn't get better than Pension Katrin!

Like many European hotels/hostels/pensions, the rooms can be quite dated but the difference at Pension Katrina was that it was spotless. Absolutely immaculate. The rooms were thoroughly cleaned each day. Linen was crisp, and the beds and pillows were comfortable. The host is who was from Salzburg herself, was very helpful, friendly and gave great recommendations on what to and see in Salzburg. She was always there to greet you everyday at breakfast, and just a genuinely nice person. Since we had a car the location was not a problem although you could easily catch a bus into town which was reliable and took 10 minutes. Otherwise a leisurely 25 stroll takes you into town with amazing scenery. There is only 3 car park spots at the pension but plenty of street parking. I would stay here again and also recommend to others.

Warm and welcoming, this family-owned B&B was exactly what we'd hoped for. Gracious and very helpful host, satisfying breakfast buffet (try the Plum and Peach Cake, if you can), and comfortable room. It's a 4-minute walk to the #5 bus which takes you to the Old City as well as the train station. (At the train station, go downstairs to buy a 24-hour transit ticket for each day you're in Salzburg -- they were a good deal and very useful for our trips back and forth.)||||The room was a little tight, but the beds were comfortable, there was a small desk and chair, a convenient refrigerator, and a standing fan (although we didn't use it, the cross-ventilation was fine).||||Nonntaler Hauptstrasse can get noisy, so next time we will ask for a room facing the back. And there will be a next time!

We chose this pension for its great reviews and location as we had a car. We were so happy with our choice. The room was huge and so warm and pleasant. The breakfast area was gorgeous with a glass section at the front. The breakfast was vast and well presented. Eggs boiled to perfection. Service was fantastic. So helpful. There is a small car park. Fortunately we always had space for our car. There is a bus stop a few metres away and with the Salzburg card it is free. The Salzburg card Is fantastic value. We bought the 24 hour card and saved over 100€ easily for the 4 of us. You can buy it from the pension. You can also walk to the old town and fortress in about 15 mins so location is good (especially if you need parking). So happy with our choice.

We originally wanted to stay in the city to be close to everything without having to use our car. However, we knew driving in the city and parking would be difficult so we searched for a place nearby with parking and easy access to see the Lake District. The Pension Katrine was simply perfect for everything we wanted. First, the location is great. You can easily walk into the historic section of Salzburg. It takes less than 30 minutes and is a flat stroll through safe neighborhoods. There is also a bus stop just down the street which is extremely easy to access for a quick trip to the historic section. There is also a fabulous Italian restaurant down the street within a 5 minute walk. If you have a car, getting in and out of town to see the surrounding countryside is not difficult at all and is much easier than trying to get in and out of the historic center. From the Pension Katrine you don't have to negotiate crowds of tourists or narrow streets. Also, there are 3 FREE parking spots right inside the Pension Katrine courtyard. If those are taken, there is plenty of parking on the street. Second, the pension is spotless. Our room was large and overlooked the street. We were there in late October so the weather was cool and rainy. Had it been hot, the pension provides a floor fan to help cool the air. The snacks in the room are very reasonably priced. We normally don't eat the over-priced items provided by most hotels. But we did indulge at the Pension Katrine because the prices were inexpensive and the snacks were tempting. Third, breakfast was a lovely buffet with homemade cakes and an assortment of cheeses and meats. We found the hostess to be affable and efficient and available. We were thrilled to find this place and plan to stay again when we are in Salzburg. Location, cleanliness, value, and comfort...this place ticks all of the boxes for us.
