Pros:

I don't usually leave reviews but this ancient building, beautifully restored and tastefully decorated was excellent. I like how the decoration of the room was simple and sparse in keeping with the period of the building.

Cons:

I realise that the world is moving to not having a real person to interact with at check in but it's impersonal and I could imagine for older people, very confusing.
Please come back to having a real hotel receptionist. People want to interact with humans, not screens.

Geautomatiseerd overnachten op mooie locatie.
Pros:

De locatie en het gelegen zijn in het dorp zelf.
De kamer in het Farbhaus was groot. Het is sfeervol in een oud chalet.
Parkeren kan in de grote parkeergarage.
Om zeven uur wakker gebeierd worden door de klokken van kerk geeft meteen een Zwitserland-gevoel.

Cons:

De ontvangst is volledig geautomatiseerd en dat doet kil aan. Het werkt, maar een mens vindt het fijn om zich welkom te voelen. Bij uitchecken zelfde,op het scherm verschijnt.niet eens een bedankje of een goede reis gewenst. Jammer.
Het ontbijt was karig, mager en onpersoonlijk, dingen werden niet bijgevuld, de melk in de koffiemachine was op, de kaas was op, het roerei was op. Duidelijk bezuinigd op personeel en gastvrijheid.
De kamer direct onder het schuine dak was benauwd en warm,, gelukkig kwamen we een eind met de ramen open omdat het in de avond afkoelt.
De prijs kwaliteitverhouding is beslist onvoldoende.

Tolles Hotel, sehr schlechter Service und nicht funktionier Ende digitale Prozesse. Schade!
Pros:

Die sehr gute Lage und das schöne alte Gebäude. Vor allem aber die sehr sehr nette Dame, die morgens für den Frühstücksdienst verantwortlich war. Selten so eine verbindliche, hilfsbereite nette Dame gehabt.

Cons:

Der gesamte Eincheck-Prozess war eine Katastrophe! Wir kamen an, es gab kein Personal, da es Ausfälle beim Personal gab. Wir wollten digital einchecken, aber das Tablet im Eingangsbereich funktionierte nicht. Dann habe ich bei der Hotline angerufen, doch ich hatte nur einen Sprachassistenten.
Das Gespräch war sehr teuer, da ich aus Deutschland komme und in der Schweiz nicht telefonieren wollte. Was ich aber leider tun musste.
Letztlich hatte eine andere Dane, die zeitgleich einchecken wollte, irgendwann Glück an der Hotline und hat mir dann ihr Telefon gegeben, damit auch ich einen Ansprechpartner bekomme. Selbst meine Tochter, die „digital native“ ist, war alles andere als begeistert.

Fazit: ich habe kein Problem mit digitalen Prozessen, aber w n es gar kein „echtes Personal“ gibt vT, muss die Technik klappen.

Cons:

Aukštaūgiams per žemos lubos. Kambario nuotraukos atrodo geriau, nei patys kambariai iš tikrųjų. Kambariuose labai karšta. Kavos aparato nebuvo

Pros:

It's an astonishingly beautiful, old builing, nicely renovated inside. The room was very spacious and even had a fridge. Good breakfast.

Cons:

If you are over 1.85cm, you want to be careful about the ceiling height (apparently, in the old days people were smaller).

Mooie locatie voor actief bezoek aan Zwitsterland
Pros:

Ruime kamer. Leuk dorp met aantal gezellige restaurants.

Cons:

Er was geen airco op de kamer.
Plafond was laag, Ik denk 200cm. Ik ben zelf 1.92. Is denk ik goed te vermelden

Pros:

It was a little tricky to find where to check in and how to get into the house, but eventually we did it. :)
It was a clean spacious room with a very good bathroom, nice beds. There was also a good restaurant at the Kreuz hotel nearby.
