Am Jura Höhenweg
Pros:

Die Lage am Jura Höhenweg war genial. Die Zimmer waren modern und mit einer grossen Dusche eingerichtet, sauber und ruhig. Das Frühstücksbuffet war hervorragend.

Cons:

Wir haben an einem Tag übernachtet als das Restaurant geschlossen war und haben deshalb eine kalte Platte bestellt für jede Person. Das hat nicht wie bestellt funktioniert und war vor allem zu wenig für hungrige Wanderer. Wir haben nach Reklamation dann noch extra portionen feinen Teigwarensalat erhalten.

Stilvolste Unterkunft in der Umgebung
Pros:

Zentrale Lage, geschmackvolle geräumige Zimmer. Originelle Kunst im Restaurant. Gutes Frühstück. Wir kamen an einem Sonntag vom Wandern an. Leider hatte dann die vielversprechende Küche zu. Wir konnten vorab eine gute kalte Platte zum Abendessen bestellen. Unkompliziert und alles bestens.

ゆったりと過ごて快適でした。
Pros:

ミシュラン一つ星シェフのお料理がとても美味しくて、ペアリングしてもらったワインもとても美味しかった。ディナーを楽しんだ後に車の運転の心配をせずにそのまま宿泊できるのが快適だった。歴史ある建物は古い部分を上手に使って綺麗にリノベーションしてある。地元の食材を使った朝食も美味しかった。特に手作りのマドレーヌの美味しさに感動した。スタッフの皆様の対応もとても気持ちが良かった。

Cons:

部屋のドアを閉める時の音が大きくて少しびっくりしてしまう。エレベーターのボタンの音が大きい。隣のお部屋の声が聞こえる。静かで快適だっただけに残念に感じました。
