This hostel is easy to get to by bus and is in quick walking distance to most of Salzburg's main attractions. This hostel offers free breakfast which is basic, but good if you are on a budget, you can also opt in to have the rest of your meals here for a reasonable price. The staff are friendly and are...

I stayed at the JUFA in January 2012 for three nights. It was a reasonable price in a very expensive city and the location was great. Only a five minute walk to old town however if you are carrying luggage its not too close to the Hauptbahnhof. It is a 20 minute walk or so...a cab is about 10 or... More

I was hesitant to book a room at JUFA Salzburg since we're not big on hostels, but I'm so, so glad we stayed here! I was worried that it'd be a loud party building with mediocre facilities -- I was wrong! First, the property is in a safe neighborhood with a short 5-10 minute walk to the Aldstadt/Old Town. The...

You need to walk about 20 minutes to the city center and there is no water heater for a hot drink in December. I felt disappointed for paying the hotel price for a hostel facility.

For the money this place is great, clean and friendly. Located on the other side of the castle from downtown, 10 min walk to the main part of town. Rooms are a bit small but clean and modern, if you're from the US think College dorm rooms. Breakfast was good, but get there early before the kids pick it over.... More

We (2 female friends) stayed at the Jufa for one night in a twin bedded room with private bathroom. The hostel is amazing value for money. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the lobby area is a great place to relax. There is free wi-fi available for use in the lobby and the Sound of Music is shown every... More

I've never stayed in a hostel before and I would stop in one like again as long as it was a JUFA. The staff is young and very friendly also very helpful. When I booked well in advance on the JUFA web site it didn't charge me anything only when I arrived was my credit card charged. So only book... More
