Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered a clean and spacious room with a rich minibar and complimentary water, making it comfortable for my stay. The staff was polite and extremely helpful, enhancing my overall experience. However, regulating the room temperature was only possible by opening the window, which was a bit inconvenient. While the location was outstanding and ideal for a relaxing stroll by the lake, the breakfast selection was somewhat limited.
I had a great stay at the hotel, enjoying its clean and comfortable ambiance. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made my experience even better. The location is perfect for exploring Switzerland, but the dining options left something to be desired. Overall, I felt it offered good value for money, especially considering the amenities and service provided.
The hotel has a great location, with beautiful views over the castle and a tranquil environment, making it a wonderful place to relax. The rooms are clean and comfortable, although a bit small. The staff is incredibly polite and helpful, ready to assist with anything you need. Unfortunately, the breakfast selection could use more variety to truly cater to everyone’s tastes.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, just a short walk from the lake and very close to the train station, which made exploring the area so convenient. The rooms were spacious and clean, and I loved the bathroom amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel right at home. On the downside, while the breakfast had a good variety, it could use a few more options to fully satisfy everyone. Overall, great value for money!
I had a great stay at this hotel, thanks to its fantastic location right in the heart of the city, making everything easily accessible. My room was clean and offered nice amenities, but it wasn't particularly large, and soundproofing could be improved. The staff was incredibly helpful, although some were a bit distracted during breakfast service. Overall, it provided good value for money, but there’s room for improvement in some areas.
