Excellente étape avec une superbe vue, le confort en plus...
Pros:

Tout : la situation, la décoration, le confort, le personnel, la cuisine au dîner et le petit déjeuner...

Un ascenseur pour arriver à la suite du dernier étage serait apprécié pour des gens de notre âge

Sehr gutes Hotel, bei Sommerhitze jedoch zu warme Zimmer
Pros:

Lage, Frühstück, Sauberkeit, Freundlichkeit,

Cons:

Leider verfügen die Zimmer über keine Klimaanlage. Laut der Rezeption liegt dies am Denkmalschutz des Gebäudes. Der bereitgestellte Standventilator reichte bei den aktuellen Temperaturen jedoch leider nicht aus, um das Zimmer ausreichend zu kühlen oder den etwas muffigen Geruch zu vertreiben. Dadurch war die Nacht für uns leider nicht besonders erholsam. Mobile Klimageräte könnten hier eine gute Lösung sein und den Aufenthalt an heissen Tagen deutlich angenehmer machen.

Heerlijk verblijf in piepklein dorpje aan de Rijn
Pros:

Zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Lekker ontbijt. Het terras aan het water naast de aanlegsteiger voor de boot maakt het plaatje compleet. Gelulkig hadden we prachtig weer en mede daardoor een heerlijk verblijf van 2 dagen gehad.

Cons:

Zwitserland is duur, te duur misschien wel. Kamerprijzen zijn oké, maar het eten en drinken is ca. 2 keer duurder dan in Nederland en buurland Duitsland. Dat was de tegenvaller. Op het hotel konden wij eigenlijk niets aanmerken, of het zou moeten zijn dat er geen airco op de kamer was.
