Sehr schöner, einzigartiger Aufenthalt während 2 Tagen in dem einzigartigen Hotel.
Pros:

Einzigartige Lage und Hotelanlage als Pfahlbaueranlage. Tolle Architektur.
Sehr nettes Hotelpersonal. Sehr gutes Restaurant.

Cons:

Beschwerlicher Ein- und Ausstieg in den See. Die Leitern auf dem Schwimsteg mit negativer Neigung sind eine Fehlkonstruktion.

Un séjour unique!
Pros:

Nous avons adoré notre séjour au Palafitte. L'accueil est vraiment exceptionnel avec une petite attention pour l'anniversaire de mon mari et un super accueil pour notre chien dans la chambre qui a rendu ce séjour unique et super agréable. L'hôtel est splendide, parfaitement situé sur les bords du lac de Neuchâtel avec une ambiance très calme et relaxante. Parfaite table aussi au restaurant et petit déjeuner au top. Nous reviendrons avec grande joie!

Pros:

Very cool concept, room is very nice with beautiful view to the lake. Personal es kind.

Cons:

Very expensive for the value you get. Breakfast has few options so after 4 days is very repetitive. If you want something special such as benedic eggs to need to pay apart. Last night the pipes of the room were very noisy all the time and also at 2am there was a supee loud noise during around 30sec of a kind of machine outside the room that woke me up.
