Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was more than comfortable with everything I could possibly need. The rooms were spacious and always warm with absolutely stunning views from the balcony. However, my room had one tiny window which faced directly out on the work site, leading to constant loud noise throughout the day except for a short lunch break. Moreover, the layout was a bit cramped, and I could barely walk by the foot of the bed to get to the bathroom.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although well-equipped and comfortable, were unfortunately noisy due to the ongoing construction work just outside. However, the service from the staff was exceptional, they were always attentive and friendly. The location, despite the noise, provided easy access to the cable car and stunning mountain views. The dining options were good overall, with a varied selection, but some repetition in the breakfast menu. The facilities were satisfactory, offering everything needed for a pleasant stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were renovated, clean, and spacious, but the constant noise from the nearby work site was bothersome. The service was exceptional, with always-available and helpful staff. The location was ideal for enjoying late afternoon cakes and beer, offering stunning views and convenient access to the station and cable car. The dining options were minimal, and unfortunately, outdoor eating was obstructed. Overall, a decent stay with some notable drawbacks.
The hotel had everything we needed in a compact space, offering a nice and clean room with Swiss standards met. While the balcony provided a great touch, there was some chain smoking that affected our stay. The location was excellent, right in front of the cableway for easy access to activities, but noise from outside could be bothersome at times.
