The PKF hospitality group has found a new operator for the former Wolfgang’s Hotel in Salzburg, Austria. Harry’s Home has signed a long-term partnership with the owner Fanny-v-Lehnert Grundstücksgesellschaft.
The 119-room hotel at Fanny-von-Lehnert-Straße 6-8, is located in direct vicinity to Salzburg’s main train station, 400 m and 5 minutes walking distance. In addition, it has a lobby area, a lean f&b concept, one conference room, a gym and underground parking. There are numerous shopping opportunities in the vicinity alongside restaurants and cafes. There are also excellent public transport connections. The opening is planned for Q1 2024.

Harry’s Home fully understands the needs of future travelers and will create a new product which will complement the current hospitality landscape around the main train station of Salzburg.”
Harald Ultsch, CEO of Harry’s Home: “With our Salzburg location, we will gain a foothold in another major city at the beginning of 2024, thus also closing a geographical gap in our portfolio.

Sightseeing trips are therefore of particular importance. With our attractive location near the train station, we are once again promoting the relaxed and green arrival by train.”
