    Pros +

    • Nice peaceful place
    • Excellent location, friendly staff, & big spacious room
    • The people at Hotel Freihof were the nicest I’ve ever met, from the patrons at the bar to the bartender and hotel owner. The view from my room was stunning and the whole town is gorgeous. No matter who I spoke to everyone was lovely and truly made it the most memorable trip of my life. Thank you Denice!

    Cons -

    • No air conditioning, but plenty of nice windows. Opened them and it was very nice.
    • We arrived at what seemed like a closed hotel. All doors were closed. We tried the speaker thing on the door but it was a foreign language and didnt have english as an option. We tried calling the host but no answer. We walked around angry and confused for 15 minutes. Suddenly the owner called back. Said she hadnt seen our booking but she would be right there. We waited another 10 minutes outside and then she came. She seemed very confused. Asked to see our booking. I showed her. She was still confused. Also she asked if we wanted breakfast and at what time. We said at 9am. She said ok. She said breakfast was just down the street at some restaurant. We got there at 8.50 am but the restaurant was closed. We called the host. She said it should open at 9 because thats when we said we wanted breakfast. And im just thinking.. yeah we wanted to eat at 9. How can we eat at 9 when the restaurant aint even open yet. Anyway, surely enough it opened at 9. We got in. Got a table. We were the only ones there. Waited 15-20 minutes for breakfast to come (most of the breakfast was great except the cold cuts and cucumber which were clearly not fresh. Dry as hell! And the hardboiled eggs were boiled so much they had turned blue). So we asked for breakfast at 9 but didnt eat until 9.15-9.20 ish. Overall just a very confusing and stressful experience.
    • My room had no elevator (they have rooms with elevator);

    The room was very clean all the time;Quiet place, although above a pub;locate in downtown

    My room had no elevator (they have rooms with elevator);

    7DougPosted on: 5-18-2023

    Balcony was huge and had great views of the mountains

    The elevator wasn't working and the room smelled smoky from the pub below

    8Amber H.Posted on: 6-13-2022

    Room was great - big and open. The bathroom was also large.

    No parking was available, the street noise was a bit loud, but with the windows closed we couldn't heard anything.

    Convenient location, clean enough.

    We have prepared on booking, but asked by the staff to pay another 160chf during checkin. Now I am claiming a refund via booking but the hotel never answer the phone. Such an unprofessional service is like cheating for me.

    Stayed for one night whilst passing through on a bike tour. I could store my bike in the garage.The room had a fan which I was very grateful for in the heatwave.

    Breakfast was nice, simple but sufficient. Very comfortable room with a convenient mini fridge, quite spacious. The large desk was useful. I've never seen a room this clean. Kind people.

    Curtains are not opaque enough and let the light in. I would have liked to know that there is no elevator and quite a lot of stairs because my suitcase was heavy.
