What sounds like a country inn is in fact a modern hotel and contemporary restaurant, yet with an historic backbone: the walls are more than 650 years old, making it the oldest restaurant in the city of Salzburg. Today, it is multi-functional. You can chill in the garden, you can gaze down at the “Horsetail Fountain”, you can linger in the bar which often plays live jazz, you can savour the very best in the restaurant, where Austrian classic cuisine from veal pluck to Tafelspitz to Salzburger Nockerln are presented in top form. The individually appointed, highly modern rooms at the Art Hotel Blaue Gans are equally worthy of attention, and worth trying out.
