Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, which is ideally situated right near the Reichenbach waterfall and various tourist attractions. The rooms were clean and cozy, providing a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, which added to the positive experience. However, while the dining options included some tasty crêpes, I did wish for a bit more variety. Overall, the hotel offered great value for money, though some amenities were a little lacking.
The hotel is nestled in a beautiful area next to a river and close to the mountains, making it a scenic retreat. The rooms are clean and offer pretty linen, but the shared bathroom situation can be a bit inconvenient for some. The service is friendly, and there are good amenities available, but not ideal if you're looking to work remotely since there isn't a conducive environment for it. Overall, it offers great value for a relaxing getaway, just keep in mind the shared facilities.
I had a good experience at the hotel overall. The location is fantastic, right near the Reichenbachfall funicular, making it easy to access the beautiful waterfalls. The rooms are neat and have lovely linen, but the shared bathroom can be a bit inconvenient. The service was also solid, with friendly staff always willing to help. However, the dining options left a little to be desired. All in all, it offers great value for money, but it's not perfect.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasts a great location near many tourist attractions and the funicular to the waterfalls. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the shared bathroom setup wasn't ideal for me. The service was friendly, and the staff were welcoming with nice amenities for pets. While the dining experience was decent, it felt a bit limited. Overall, it was a good value for money.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is ideally situated just on the outskirts of town and close to the cable car for the waterfalls. The rooms were neatly kept with lovely linens, and while the staff was quite welcoming and helpful, the location slightly hindered my experience due to limited workspaces. The price felt reasonable for what we got, but the shared bathroom setup might not be everyone's cup of tea.
