Антисервис
Pros:

Понравился только вид вокруг гостиницы

Cons:

В комнате предполагался чайник, на самом деле кофеварка. Окно выходит на задний двор, и мимо ходят люди. Приходится закрывать окно шторой при свете дня. Назвать уборкой нельзя, меняет только полотенца и выбрасывает мусор.Завтрак стоит 27 евро и крайне скудный ассортимент, из всех блюд реален омлет и небольшая нарезка, йогурт не вкусный, сладкое только круассаны, и фруктов три апельсина. И это за такую цену! Самый главный "сюрприз" предполагался напоследок. Без всякого предупреждения заставили заплатить 87 евро налога. И это при цене 150 евро за ночь. Про высокие ступеньки вгору тоже никто не предупреждал, была указана 10 мин дорога в гору и все. Цена за три ночи и качество отдыха несоответсвуют вообще. Самый неприятный отдых в нашей жизни!

Super - wir kommen wieder!
Pros:

Zimmer mit Aussicht war sehr schön!
Die Lage und der Ausbau sind super
Das Personal war sehr freundlich

Cons:

Bei der Reception liess man uns warten und es war sehr heiss. Ich würde noch Läden montieren, damit am Morgen die Sonne nicht voll reinscheint und aufheizt.

Pros:

Fantastisk smuk beliggenhed! Dejligt efter en god storbys dag nede i Zürich at komme op i natur, frisk luft og vild smuk udsigt.
Vi kom med tog/nattog fra Danmark over Hamborg og fik vores værelser 3 1/2 timer før, uden beregning, det var virkelig god service.

Cons:

Turen fra stationen op til hotellet er stejl og krævende, hvis ikke kondien er god. Men der er bænke undervejs, og hotellet tilbyder transport hvis man er dårligt gående.

Wonderful location and views…..but…
Pros:

Astonishing view -fun to arrive on the little train.

Cons:

No air con. Very unhelpful Receptionist ;she appeared to be totally uninterested in providing information. When we arrived at the little station from which one walks up to the hotel ,guests are asked to telephone the hotel to arrange luggage pick up…Reception didn’t answer. Luckily for us a hotel employee arriving for work called and organised luggage pick up. When asked about taxis/uber she just replied ‘she didn’t know’.
