I don't think you need to spend a night in Salzburg. It can be easily visited from any surrounding village as a day trip. I have visited 8 times and never slept in Salzburg. It is a really nice town that has a lot of history.

Depends on the time of year but you could also visit Berchtesgaden and Konigsee, Germany. I also would not pass up the opportunity to drive in the Alps.

If you do spend a night, ask your hotel if they have parking and if not, where can you park your car for the night. There are several Park & Ride car parks and a large underground garage under Monchsberg near the old town.

While true, he is coming from Munich so it makes sense to stay the night there IMO. I highly recommend the Sound of Music bike tour OP if you are remotely interested. Not that I care THAT much about the movie, but its a nice way to see the city and something different. You cover quite a bit of ground in a short amount of time.

Definitely agree with the above to dedicate some time to the Alps, doesn't have to be anywhere even well known. Its just beautiful scenery and very relaxing.

you need to stay a night in Salzburg for two reasons. One its nice to roam the old town at night and two, you will want to spend a lot of the evening drinking beer at Augustiner Brau and you don't want to drive afterwards.
