What a location! The 24-room Hotel Krone 1512 (formerly Hotel Goldene Krone) is a family-owned, 15th-century hotel on lovely pedestrian-only Linzergasse. This bustling street—packed with cute cafes and shops—is a huge part of the attraction (although the parking lot is a bit of a hike). But it's not just the sweet environs that draw us to this charmer: The modern take on Austrian "country" style and a great garden patio at the foot of Kapuzinerberg make it a standout.

Although it has been renovated, the three-star hotel still has vaulted ceilings in the lobby. Modern details, such as slick lighting, contrast nicely with the traditional, hand-painted wooden furniture.

Back rooms have views over Goldene Krone's patio, a multi-tiered, ivy-covered space so inviting that it makes us wish it were always spring! All rooms have cable TV and most have large tiled bathrooms with tubs.

Hotel Krone 1512 is a great choice for families (children's beds are available) and for exploring Salzburg by foot. The friendly owner, a licensed tour guide, offers customized tours for €10 a person.

Breakfast is included in the nightly rate.

Location: Very central

0.4km to city center

Attractions in the compact Right Bank are plentiful. The area is defined by the pedestrian-only Linzergasse (and Kapuzinerberg) to the east, Dreifaltigkeitsgasse in the west, and the crescent-shaped boulevard Franz-Josef-Strasse in the north.

Nearby attractions include Mirabellplatz and the Mirabellgarten, as well as the Mozart-Wohnhaus (not to be confused with the Altstadt’s Geburtshaus). The Right Bank is a little less frenetic than the Altstadt across the Salzach, but not by much. Bottom line: where there are narrow streets, visible mountains, cute shops, and historic buildings, there are crowds.
