    Pros +

    • Easy access to old town. Pleasant viewsVery helpful reception staff
    • Clean, comfortable and convenient. Well appointed. Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast.
    • Great property! Only stayed there one night but the hotel itself was very nice. The room was spacious and comfortable, the breakfast was great with hot food options and location was good as well.

    Cons -

    • Safe didn’t work but we were offered use of hotel safe and it was repaired on second day
    • The bathroom, the tub is not draining fast. Outdated, rooms needed upgrade.
    • Wish there had been coffee in the room or in the lobby 24/7. We had a very early train to catch so had to miss breakfast.

    Wonderful central location. Super friendly staff. Delicious breakfast. Would definitely stay there again and recommend it to all my friends and family.

    Amazingly comfortable bed and pillows. We loved the location and breakfast. It was fantastic

    Nothing. It was fantastic

    10MichelePosted on: 1-19-2026

    Location was away from noise and bustle but within easy walk, breakfast was a nice and fresh variety, comfortable beds, small number of rooms

    Shower doors did not seal so water all over floor. No AC so was warm in room until late night.

    10DeeviaPosted on: 1-19-2026

    The lady at the reception was elderly and incredibly pleasant and friendly and welcoming. She was absolutely amazing!!!

    10RachelPosted on: 1-19-2026

    Great simple single room with beautiful balcony and view of the river. Great breakfast as well.

    Blackout Curtains would have been nice. there was some ambient light from the buildings outside.

    8SherriPosted on: 1-19-2026

    Very helpful and friendly staff!Also centrally located but enough out of the way that it was quiet and relaxing.

    Maybe AC in rooms ? But they had fans so it was okay.

    10CarolPosted on: 1-16-2026

    We requested a room for 3 persons. We were told that the room we were in was the room able to accommodate our request. Our room was very quiet with a bonus of a beautiful view. The room came with a free delicious breakfast in the morning.

    Reqreted not spending more time in this unique hotel and location.

    10KathleenPosted on: 1-15-2026

    Wonderful breakfast and location! You are given a pass to use the bus system, which is helpful. It was quiet and comfortable. Staff was helpful with questions about the area and attentive at breakfast. We had a special need for a room with an extra bed and they were able to accommodate that!

    One of our rooms had no refrigerator.

    10MulderPosted on: 1-12-2026

    Everything. Our room was immaculate as was the breakfast room. Staff were so friendly and professional.

    9HakanPosted on: 1-12-2026

    The breakfast is quite sufficient with some options. I think it is a huge advantage when you travel in Switzerland! The room was clean and warm during cold winter days. The bathroom was spacious and clean, as well. There is hot water 24/7. The location was perfect, and everything is within walking distance.The ladies at the reception were very helpful and informative. They even helped us get our tickets for Mount Rigi.

    There is no minifridge in the room; it is a boutique hotel, so I understand. Yet, it could be an advantage.

    7MichaelPosted on: 1-9-2026

    Inclusive breakfast is very generous. Balcony.

    The location is slightly off center. The rooms are a bit too spartan- has a dorm feel.

    10FrancesPosted on: 1-8-2026

    The location was exactly what we wanted- walking distance to the Christmas market area and plenty of restaurants and shops along the way. The breakfast was delicious with a variety of offerings. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

    We have no complaints - everything met our expectations.

    9HelenPosted on: 1-5-2026

    Beautiful view from our balcony. About 900m walk to train station. A lot of restaurants near by. Buffet breakfast was good, everything you could want for breakfast.

    9VenolaPosted on: 1-5-2026

    Location is excellent. Breakfast is moderate. Not many choices.

    8NelliPosted on: 1-4-2026

    The service was amazing, staff was really helpful! They can arrange a taxi and attractions tickets at the hotel reception. Also good breakfast with a glass of Prosecco to add some celebration to your day

    The hotel is in connection with a school, so the common areas feel more like a student dormitory rather than a luxury boutique hotel.

    10LouisePosted on: 1-2-2026

    Everything was great, staff were very helpful, breakfast was very good. Room was really good.

    No refrigerator in the room.
