Hotel Frauenschuh Garni, hotel in Salzburg

A 10-minute drive from the centre of Salzburg, Hotel Frauenschuh is located in the quiet and green district of Leopoldskron-Moos. It has a spa area and offers free outdoor parking.

Everything! In the most beautiful, picturesque location you find this gem of a place. It is immaculately kept, clean, tidy and well presented. Our family room was a generous size for a family of four. We arrived during the day and the hotel catered lunch for us especially and even made a cake completed with candles and sparkler for us to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Breakfast was fresh, delicious and well organised and the children enjoyed the outdoor play area (particularly the table tennis). A fabulous stay and we will definitely be back.

Newly renovated, the rooms are carefully and brilliantly designed with thoughtful touches, simply beautiful modern and comfortable spaces. The staff were always friendly with a smile. Breakfast was excellent quality, delicious and displayed beautifully in line with the rest of the hotel. The distance from the main touristy area was about 10-15min walk. Wonderful experience.
