Villa Trapp

Top choice in Salzburg


Marianne and Christopher have transformed the original von Trapp family home into a beautiful guesthouse (for guests only, we might add). The 19th-century villa is elegant, if not quite as palatial as in the movie, with tasteful wood-floored rooms and a balustrade for sweeping down à la Baroness Schräder.

Family snapshots and heirlooms, including the baron’s model ships and a photo of guest and Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour strumming ‘Edelweiss’, grace the dining room. From the main station, take a train or bus 160 to Aigen.
