Beeindruckende Architektur des Hotels, leider ohne Seele.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war gut, die Atmosphäre allerdings wie in einem Hilton Business Hotel.

Cons:

Der Empfang war unfreundlich. Es wurde uns ein Tisch im Restaurant angeboten um 18:20 für 18:30 den wir um 20:00 räumen müssten.. Wir hatten folglich keine Zeit uns umzuziehen. Beim Gepäck war man uns nicht behilflich.

Überteuert für eine so einfache Unterbringung.
Pros:

Die gesamte Anlage ist wirklich wunderschön. Exzellentes Frühstück im Waldhotel.

Cons:

Das einchecken in einem anderen Hotel ist recht umständlich. Das Zimmer war winzig klein und hatte überhaupt keine Belüftung. Obwohl wir keine hohen Temperaturen hatten, war es extrem stickig im Zimmer, da die Fenster nicht geöffnet werden durften.

site incroyable avec une vue à couper le souffle
Pros:

Réservation faite à la taverne mais hébergement au Waldhotel. La chambre est immense et très fonctionnelle, la vue montagne est fabuleuse (quand la météo est favorable). Le personnel très disponible et professionnel. Le funiculaire et le bateau pour aller à Lucerne, le top.

Cons:

La clientèle dans les différents hôtels du site BURGENSTOCK est très haut de gamme et n'a pas les mêmes codes que monsieur tout le monde
