The location is amazing, you can walk to the Mirabell or the train station in 10 minutes. Every night they play the film the sound of music In the common room. And they offer free coffee/milk/cereals in the morning. My point is the staff is so helpful!!!My iPhone charger was broken and I arrived so late at the Ester night, he helped me to charge it for a while and drew me a map told me where I can bought a new charger at night and recommended me a restaurant (which is soooo delicious!). Next time when I visit Salzburg I’d love to choose yoho again!

Maybe you can add a curtain for each bed? Cause the bedlamp is so bright, when someone turn it you can hardly sleep.

It's a big hostel, but it doesn't feel like it. It always felt like a very social hostel, so it was easy to meet people. The staff were really lovely, and that made it so easy to stay. Location is perfect. A short walk to the station and a short walk to the old town.

The only thing thing I didn't like is there are only microwaves in the kitchen, so two weeks without cooking got expensive. You might also want an eye mask if night lights bother you!

The location is perfect, far enough away from the city that you get some quality quiet but close enough to walk to without any issues. everything was as expected, very clean and tidy and comfortable. amazing for the price and we felt very safe and welcomed. also the house red wine at the bar is exceptionally good.

The only thing that would have helped would be some privacy curtains on the beds, mostly just to block out the light. the personal reading lights on each bed are extremely bright so if your roommates are coming back later and switching lights on it is very bright and will wake you up.

Great, safe location.

Did not anticipate having to pay for the use of towels.

It's very close to the train station and walkable to the major tourist sites such as Mozart's house, Christmas market, and most Sound of Music filming spots. The building itself is aged, but the amenities are quite new. There's a TV room and they arrange movie night very often.

I didn't like that the entrance to men's and women's toilets are shared, it's very weird and awkward. Another downside is that if you stay in the upper bunk, the ladder is very uncomfortable to step on, and it's unstable.

Lots of space and a little of everything you need, including kitchen, places to socialize, well-kept restrooms and lockers, comforts in the room like reading lights and outlets, friendly staff. Location wasn't too far from central attractions and easy walk to the train and bus station

One small thing that can make a big difference in dorm rooms - please consider putting curtains on each bed!

The location was good because you walked to the Central Railway station within 10 minutes and could walk to the city center within short period of time.

The days I was staying in the hostel were rainy days. One day, I put my umbrella at the front door to dry my umbrella as the other people did when I came back after a city walk. But an hour later, I found my umbrella missing. When I asked the help from the staff at the counter who said that she allowed one guy to pick any one umbrella at the front door for use by keeping a five Euro as a deposit at the counter. She believed that the guy would return my umbrella after use. Unfortunately, my umbrella had never been returned to the counter until the next morning when I needed to check out. I was forced to pick out another umbrella as a replacment. I was so disappointed that the hostel staff allowed the guest to take away the property of the other guest.

Excellent location, well situated at walking distance between main train station and sights/river. Basic but sufficient breakfast. Plenty of spaces to lounge around. Key card tapping operated lockers are a huge convenience (no need for own padlock)! Ample space for luggage storage.

Curtains for individual beds could help. Bedside lights are too bright and may disturb others sleeping. Toilets can get crowded.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay at YoHo International Youth Hostel in Salzburg. The hostel was exceptionally clean, which is a major plus for any budget traveler. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the facilities were well-maintained. Location Consideration: While the hostel itself was great, be aware that it's located about 2 kilometers from the city center. This wasn't a deal-breaker for me, but it's something to consider if you prefer to be right in the heart of the action. Public transportation or biking (they offer rentals!) might be helpful factors to consider. Breakfast Not Included: Breakfast is not included in the stay, so factor that into your budget when planning your trip. There are cafes and bakeries nearby if you want to grab something on the go in the mornings. Overall: If you're looking for a clean and comfortable hostel stay in Salzburg and don't mind being a bit outside the city center, YoHo is a solid option. Just keep the location and breakfast situation in mind when making your decision.

Location is good, beds are comfortable and the staff are fantastic. It is fun and engaging with Quiz Night and the Sound of Music playing every night. We would have given 10 out of 10 had we not suffered the cigarette smoke.

They put the smoking area directly next to the entrance. If you booked private rooms and the rooms in vicinity of the entrance you will have to have your windows shut. The smokers sit there chatting on and off through the night and our room stank if smoke. It would be better if they were relocated towards the street entrance. Reading the reviews we are not the only ones bothered by this. I would choose a different room, especially in the summer. It's a shame because we liked the place very much.
