Top, wir haben es genossen
Pros:

Auf der Wander Durchreise von Basel nach Genf hier übernachtet und wir waren begeistert. Check-in war so etwas von speditiv, dass wir es gar nicht wahrgenommen haben. Bravo. Die Zimmer gross, modern, sauber, frisch renoviert.
Abendessen im Hauseigenen Restaurant und Frühstück war grossartig. Sehr faire Preise. Danke und Bravo.

Cons:

Zu beachten ist, dass es Zimmer auf die Hauptstrasse gibt und diese Strasse ist vielbefahren.

Séjour réussi malgré des petits bémols.
Pros:

Très jolies anciennes maison historiques. Grand parking à disposition. Beau et bon restaurant, déjeuner très complet. Lit confortable. Immense salle de bain.

Cons:

Il faisait très chaud dans la chambre tout en haut sous les toits (29) et il n’y avait pas les moustiquaires aux fenêtres contrairement à ce qui nous avait été dit. La partie électrique de la salle de bain est à revoir car il y a des lumières qui ne s’allument pas et d’autres clignotent.

Lage war für uns perfekt. Personal war sehr nett!Ich selber entwerfe Hotels. Deswegen ist mein Maßstab entsprechend hoch
Pros:

Das alte Gebäude und der (vermutlich) neu sanierte Trakt in dem wir aber nicht untergebracht waren.

Cons:

Wir waren im Rössli untergebracht, bei 36 Grad Celsius ohne Klimaanlage🥵
Ventilator ohne Power….
Das Bad viel zu klein. Zimmer dagegen sehr geräumig.
Zimmer wahrscheinlich in die Jahre gekommen, nicht sehr attraktiv.

The hotel is fantastic in every respect. It's the perfect Swiss quality. The room was great, the breakfast was truly fantastic, and check-in and check-out were very efficient, even though we arrived quite late.

Lugar muito agradável e de fácil acesso.
Pros:

Gostei do café da manhã e do atendimento da equipe da recepção, camareiras e restaurante.

Cons:

Acho que faltou, apenas, um frigobar no quarto e a reposição do creme corporal. O frasco do creme foi retirado no terceiro dia de hospedagem e não foi reposto mais.
