The staff was very helpful. Our room was spacious. The bathroom was nice size too. The location was good because it was not near the noisy bells that chime frequently, but close enough to walk to most places. The hotel gave us a pass for free use of public transport, which was nice too.

I know that high temps are rare for Switzerland but a fan in the room did not make a dent and the room became hot and stuffy as night wore on. On a bright note the inclusive breakfast was pretty good

This is truly a botique hotel located towards the end of the town center. There is no air conditioner, which was fine, just so people know, but they do provide fans. There is a buffet breakfast that is actually pretty good. Liz, who was there to greet us was very kind and helpful! The hotel is very close to the train station and very walkable to everything. Would stay again!
