Comfortable and conveniently located hotel
Pros:

Location for jazz festival

Cons:

No aircon... and a particularly hot evening. Also, I purchased the accommodation many months in advance and appreciate that it is a busy festival time but the hotel room cost was ridiculously overpriced. My choice, of course, to book in the end!

Super stay
Pros:

It’s a great location. I was very grateful to be upgraded from a single to a standard double (with small balcony). The rooms are clean and comfortable, although the superior rooms might offer a little more luxury. The communal areas are very nice, including a super terrace on the first floor and there’s a popular restaurant next door.

Cons:

The casino opposite has a very good atmosphere but that might not suit some people who have a weakness in that way!

Pros:

zentrale Lage

Cons:

z.T. sehr unfreundliches Personal , unmotiviert und desinteressiert.
Frühstück sollte bei einem unverhältnismässig teuren Einzelzimmerpreis von CHF 250.00!! inbegriffen sein. Der Preis vom Frühstück war ebenfalls absolut überrissen, das Angebot sehr spartanisch.
Das Zimmer war zwar neu renoviert. Leider schmutzig. Zudem sehr schlechtes Licht im Bad, keine Ablagefläche für Toilettenartikel. insgesamt war das Einzelzimmer extrem klein. 90 cm Bett ist ja noch ok aber die Minibar unmittelbar neben dem Kopfteil des Bettes war eine Zumutung!

Die Lage und das Jazzfestival rechtfertigen vermutlich den Preis von CHF 300.00 pro Zimmer und Nacht
Pros:

Die Lage ist sensationell. Trotz allem gab es eine Minibar im Zimmer.

Cons:

Teppiche auf den Zimmer ist ein no-go! Frühstück völlig überteuert.
