The hotel may not look impressive on the outside but the room was clean and spacious. The reception staff was also very helpful and attended to all our queries patiently. Breakfast spread was reasonable, healthy and nutritious. I will recommend this hotel to my friends.

We stayed here on the way through from Holland to Italy, Rimini. We parked there for only CHF 5.00 through help of staff at the reception desk. He gave us every information at the desk and a nice room ar the front overseeing the river and the town and castle at the other side of the street. Exactly what we... More

Although the reception area looks a bit shabby and utilitarian, the triple room that my sisters and I shared was lovely. Very clean, modern, great bathroom and spacious. We had a balcony with lovely windows overlooking the river and mountains. It was about 10 minutes walk to the lake. We arrived by car and there was reasonable street parking available... More

I stayed here for 4 nights for a single room and shared bathroom. I was expecting a bunk bed and a very tiny small room but the room was actually spacious and had two twin beds (although I was traveling by myself). They gave me the 5th floor with a view of the river. It was really beautiful and pleasant.... More

Spent a very pleasant night here. The room was beautiful and modern. Especially the bathroom. We had a garden view but the river view would have been much better. The free breakfast was great and the staff very friendly and helpful. They even saved us s bundle on tour prices. Downside - it's Switzerland and everything is really expensive. It... More

My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary with a stay at the hotel that included a suite with kitchen, and small garden area. We were greeted warmly and escorted to our room. We had a full kitchen for which we made simple meals so we could relax. The hotel also provided a free breakfast and provided free wireless. Excellent... More

Well all I can say is that it was one of the nicest experiences I have had. I have stayed in 5* hotels but nothing beats a hotel if you have unbelievable personnel in reception who arrange anything you want including your washing! If we needed Mt Titlis tickets they sold them to us, told us where to catch the... More

We stayed at this hotel as it was described as being conveniently close to the main station and the old city. About 10-15 mins from the train station, 10 mins from the lake and 2 mins from the old city. The rooms are quite basic but they are clean, the bathrooms are modern and the views (if facing the river)... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and felt absolutely delighted with our choice. Its is short 10 min walk from the main station along the river but there are buses plying to closeby stops as well. We took BUS#2 which is pretty frequent. The rooms are decently sized doubles with bunk beds for additional guests. Shared bathrooms are well maintained... More

I stayed here during a business tour for three days and was really impressed with the services of the staff and décor of this hotel. Warm welcome at the reception was very pleasing and check in went very quick. Within few minutes I was in that lovely room, which was very gracefully decorated and clean. It had all the luxurious...
