My experience at Hotel Sacher Salzburg was a mix of highs and lows. While the room itself was spacious and beautifully decorated with amazing views of the river, I faced significant issues with the air conditioning that made my stay uncomfortable. Additionally, I encountered service lapses, including missed turndown service and delays in retrieving my belongings from the concierge. Overall, it was a commendable hotel, but these issues dampened what could have been a perfect stay.
