The Gasthof Auerhahn is a 15-room family-owned three-star hotel located a 10-minute walk north of the Hauptbahnhof. It may be a hike from the city center, but it's worth the trip—you'll be staying far, far away from the tourists and trappings of the Altstadt. And the same type of facilities would command much higher rates in a more central area.

Though there's no elevator, everything else is as welcoming as can be. The owners are friendly, and there's a large, elegant restaurant on the ground floor. The room décor is modern with a grayscale color palette. Wall murals of mountains add some personality. There's a satellite TV in every room, and the private bathrooms include a hair dryer and toiletries.

Windows overlook either the garden or the street. Rooms in back may be a better bet if you don't feel like staring at train tracks (albeit through cute gingham curtains).

A buffet breakfast is included, and in the summer the dining area extends into an outdoor garden. Smoke all you want down here, but there's no smoking in any of the rooms.

Note: This hotel was visited by a EuroCheapo editor and is recommended based on cleanliness, location, price and overall quality. EuroCheapo did not charge this hotel to be listed.

Location: Very central

1.4km to city center

Elisabeth-Vorstadt is convenient for those arriving by train. Most of the neighborhood's hotels are located within a few blocks of the station. While the Hauptbahnhof area—with its vulgar melange of lousy döner stands and places with names like CINEPLEXX—is an insult to everything beautiful about Salzburg, it is easily avoided.

Things look up a few blocks west. A couple of sex shops sit among the quiet apartment buildings, but there are also countless cheap Internet cafes, a few inexpensive Turkish supermarkets, and a 24-hour gas station stocked with food. Saint-Julien-Strasse, which runs through the neighborhood, feels like part of a much larger city.
