Tolle Lage, gutes Frühstück
Pros:

Schönes Hotel an bester Lage. Das Zimmer ist eher klein, jedoch komfortabel.

Cons:

Das Waschbecken ausserhalb der Nasszone, neben dem Bett. Das finde ich unpraktisch und wenig durchdacht wenn nicht beide Personen gleichzeitig ins Bett gehen.

Alles in allem empfehlenswert
Pros:

Alles Lage Zimmer mit Wasserfall

Cons:

Eigentlich war alles toll - das Wasser am Wasserfall (Stauwehr) war sehr laut und beeinträchtigte meinen Schlafgenuss …. Also Fenster zu oder
Geräuschkulisse - ( eine nicht ernst gemeinte Kritik )

Cons:

Location is in the city center, but to find hotel is very tricky, WIZE and Google Maps went crazy from the address in the middle of the traffic city street. Hotel is located inside of the block. If you miss the turn on inside of the block, you need to drive additional round. Will be very useful to add exactly clearly direction map.

Excellent; loved Thun!
Pros:

Location, amenities and facilities.

Cons:

Not sure if it’s a Swiss thing but some team members appeared to be less flexible, more rigid/structured.

The lack of air con is a no for summer
Pros:

The hotel is lovely, clean, well-kept, quiet, handy for the train, and in a central location. I never ate there, so I cannot comment. I would stay again, but only in the cooler months.

Cons:

The lack of air conditioning is an unfortunate downside; I traveled in September, and the rooms were roasting. I was told to open a window, but although the hotel has beautiful views of the river, there is a weir to the side of the building, and all you can hear is loud crashing water 24/7, which is beautiful to watch but not so pleasant to try to sleep with. All rooms are facing/ beside river
