We stayed near the end of September. Since there is no A/C (which we knew in advance), we opened the windows. Unfortunately, this allows mosquitoes and flies in the room. The breakfast, while nice, was the same as any other continental breakfast we had in Switzerland. The bathroom had been nicely remodeled but the rest of the room was very tired and in need of refurbishment. The location was excellent, clean, easy to get a bus into town or train station and very quiet. The view from the dining area was spectacular. Even the back of the hotel (not toward the mountains) where our room was located was very pleasant. Unlike every other place we stayed in Switzerland, the room was not equipped with a mini-fridge.

Loved the early check-in. My room had an amazing view. It is walkable, but may be a little rough for some. About a 7 minute walk to the gondola stop.

Old world charm. Very good condition. Delicious breakfasts. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We did visit at a time when the weather was much hotter than usual and there was no A/C. Which made for uncomfortable nights, but the whole town had the same problem. We would stay here again.

We stayed in summer. Hotel is outside of town a bit but on a main drag (where busses go by occasionally - which seems to be sort of normal for this town.) Walkable - 10-15 mns to town center. Bar was welcomed and balconies were a nice plus. Amenities were adequate but not amazing.

This was a very cozy hotel. It was clean with a great breakfast and you could easily walk into town. We loved having our own little balcony with a table and chairs to enjoy the view.

For what I paid the room was tiny. There is hardly space to put anything anywhere. Room was hot in the evening. Wanted to go out to the balcony and smokers in the next two rooms prevented me from doing so. Shower only has shampoo no soap. Asked for some ice, I was told it is only for the restaurant guest. Stayed two days. First breakfast at the cereal bar the milk looked funky and it smelled. I asked the lady there and she initially said it’s OK but then when I showed she realized it was not (it was half way to yogurt) and changed it. The young help staff at the breakfast were friendly. BTW my bed sheets were worn out and had two holes.

I love family owned restaurants and hotels as they carry a legacy and this place just ticked all the boxes. Recently renovated with an amazing bathroom, great amenities and clean space to live. Bed was super comfortable. So accessible to the public transport, with options to park if needed. The entire staff was so helpful, always there to guide us. Helped me save money on passes and stuff by giving options. Would stay again when I visit next!
