Airport to Hotel Markus sittikus

Hi

I am a lone woman travelling for a short break to Salzburg.

Does anyone know is it easy to get from the airport to the hotel Markus Sitikus, is it best by taxi or by rail? And approximate cost please?

thanks

Hello,

Salzburg is a very safe city and you should feel perfectly comfortable there. It%26#39;s only about ten minutes from the airport to the Markus Sittikus so I%26#39;d be inclined to take a taxi. The taxi rank is directly outside the door of arrivals and the fare would be around €10.

If you prefer the bus stops opposite the arrivals hall. I%26#39;m not sure which number you would need but someone will always help you. The city is small and compact. Once you have walked into the old city for your sightseeing everything will be close by. Salzburgers are very helpful, never be afraid to ask for directions, etc.

Have a good trip.

Liz.

Thanks so much for that Liz....I havent travelled alone before and at 46 I decided it was the only way I was going to get to see anything. And thanks for letting me know its very safe as well, it puts my mind at rest. I%26#39;ll definately be jumping in a taxi.

Thanks so much
