Excellent location, very friendly staff, superb views.
Pros:

The breakfast was quite a nice spread. The staff were extremely friend and helpful. The location cannot get better. It is right in front of the train station with an underpass directly leading upto the hotel.

Cons:

Some of the bathroom doors need maintenance but nothing alarmingly bad.

AT MOST FOR ONE NIGHT, AND EVEN THEN I DO NOT RECOMMEND
Pros:

• Parking: Free parking is available at the hotel, which is very convenient for guests traveling by car.
• Host: The owner is welcoming and friendly, creating a pleasant first impression.
• Check-in: The check-in process was quick and efficient.
• Clarity: Everything was explained in a clear and transparent manner.

Cons:

Noise: The noise level was unbearable. The hotel is located only about 50 meters from a railway station, which is simply unacceptable. Trains stopped running only around 11 p.m., but started again at 5 a.m. In between, the silence was filled with passing cars and heavy trucks, since a busy road runs just 5 meters from the hotel.
• Furniture & Comfort: The furniture is very old and worn-out. It is hard to call this place a proper hotel; rather, it feels more like a simple overnight stop for exhausted travelers passing by. The furniture made the stay extremely uncomfortable: shabby, damaged, and inconvenient. The bed and pillows felt decades old, with pillows probably around 30 years old.
• Bedding: The bed linen was terrible—cheap, worn, and uncomfortable.
• Breakfast: The breakfast was very poor, lacking in quality and taste, and left a bad impression.

Pros:

Das Hotel entspricht voll den Bedürfnissen für eine Übernachtung.
Eingegliedert ist ein Restaurant mit einer schmackhaften Küche, die ein ausgewogenes
Preisleistungsverhältnis bietet.
Der Parkplatz befindet sich direkt am Haus und gegenüber dem Hotel ist die
Bahnstation Walenstadt.

Cons:

Das Hotel wird im nächsten Jahr (2026) komplett renoviert.
Daher wurden im Eingangsbereich/Treppenraum keine Renovierungen mehr vorgenommen.
Vorerst aber ist ein Aufenthalt noch empfehlenswert.

Krótki pobyt z dziećmi
Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja! Piękne miasteczko nad polodowcowym jeziorem. Sam hotel przy dworcu kolejowym z łatwo dostępnym parkingiem, blisko sklepów i kilku restauracji. Bardzo miły właściciel.

Cons:

Było ok. Szkoda, że nie było nic na ciepło do śniadania, ale z drugiej strony posiłek był adekwatny do ceny ☺️
