Franziskischlössl Salzburg

At the end of a steep walk up this 630ft high hill, sits this beautiful place.The restaurant inside is heavily organic and natural. The food is hearty, delicious and made with care and interest. The drinks are excellent, the service so friendly and efficient and the atmosphere is unbeatable.

This is a fair trek up a big hill, I would say about 1.4 Miles. It is lovely scenery though with great views of the castle and City.It is a really picturesque building with an outside eating area and several eating areas inside.The highlight for me was the Apple Strudel, which was the best I had during my stay in Austria.

Hospitality top notch. Authentic austrian dress code for the staff, gave an authentic touch to a time well spent. Tasty pumpkin soup. Latte was a smooth delight, however, no cappuccino on the day to serve. Service attentive, that came with a warm smile on a...cold day. Beer is served too, but a good idea not to overdue it, as a steep descent from the hill, through slippy autumn leaves lay ahead. Never felt rushed, and could easily have stayed longer than I did.

On the top of the Moenchsberg, this Schloessel (little castle in German), is a little jewel...By foot, 45 min. from the old town, climbing in the wood surrounding this hill, you arrive in this beautiful place with a view on the Salzburger landscape, with a small rose garden and trees in the yard. You sit outside, away from the agitation from the old town and I enjoyed a delicious ice tea or tea. Refreshing (in the summer heat) for mind and body. I recommend strongly this hidden spot.

We went to the Christmas Market held here on weekends in December. It was one of my favorites this year. It was very quaint with a fire in the fire pit and red lap blankets on each chair. There was a food kiosk that we had a plum filled fried sandwich with powdered sugar that was beyond description. And one gift kiosk that had locally made gifts including honey made at the nearby monastery. There was a shuttle that ran from just outside the Star Hotel on Linzergasse for those that did not want to hike up. I will definitely return to this Christmas Market next year. Voir le carte

to get to the castle, we have the long way to kapuziner mountain (but it is a small mountain) first through a winding narrow stone path, with dachblick. next past a church and later on a commemoration of Mozart's presence and his wooden house. that has been saved is somewhere to see. it was early for this walk, but it had not rained, so it was good, not muddy. a few people here and there. Once we reached the top, there was the lock, quite stunning in a perfect condition, with train bridge and all. there are exterior seats under chestnut trees, and also inside, with scenic view through narrow windows from the middle age. the service was friendly and we ordered suppe and beer. we also bought a...

To get to the castle, we took the long way up Kapuziner mountain (well it's a small mountain). First up through a winding narrow stone path, with rooftop views.

It was early spring for this walk, but it hadn't rained, so it was fine, not muddy. A few people here and there. Once we reached the top, there was the castle, Quite stunning in a perfect condition, with drawbridge and all. There is outdoor seating under chest nut trees, and inside too, with scenic views through narrow windows from the middle ages. The service was friendly and we ordered soup and beer....

My family (two adult children and husband) and I stayed at the Franziskischloessl for several days this past December 2018. This old castle tower, which has been deliciously refurbished with elegant yet comfortable furnishings, exceeded our expectations by a mile. Franziskischloessl is nestled in the...midst of a nature's preserve a mere 30 minute walk to the historic section of Salzburg. The owners/managers of this lovely castle, Anton Gruber and Wolfgang Steinmetz, are talented, lovely and helpful and took every measure to ensure that we had an unforgettable stay. This started with very clear directions of where to park in Salzburg and by sending us a large and comfortable shuttle to take... Voir le carte
