Pros:

Beautiful view of the lake and mountains. Excellent location near the park and the castle. We really enjoyed it.

Cons:

Breakfast could have been better. More privacy on the balcony would be nice—perhaps install some dividers so guests don’t have to see each other.

Echt verschrikkelijk
Pros:

Het uitzicht en locatie

Cons:

- de kamer was niet proper
- de lampenkap had waterschade
- de stoelen op terras waren vuile witte stoelen
- het bed was vuil
- badkamer rook naar sigaretten
- het eten was echt verschrikkelijk
- de kip was nog rood
- de pannacotta was vervallen
- de coupe danmark was met saus uit een potje
- de eieren bij het ontbijt waren blauw
- de borden aan het ontbijt waren vuil
- … ik voelde me echt een niet gerespecteerd varken
- ik filterde op booking voor kamer met bad en betaalde de hoogste prijs ook voor het zicht. Ik kreeg dan een kamer met vieze douche (niet zoals op foto’s) en toen ik kon wisselen was de enige kamer met bad een koude, donkere kamer.

Normaal geef ik geen dergelijke reviews maar afficheren als drie of vier sterren is er echt over voor de toekomstige gasten.

Pros:

Das Hotel ist schön gelegen mit wunderschöner Aussicht auf den See und einer tollen Terasse, jedoch ohne Auto etwas mühsam zu erreichen.

Cons:

Das Bett war sehr unbequem, man spürte die Metallfedern beim Liegen. Sie konnten uns leider keine anderen Matratzen zu Verfügung stellen, sondern wollten das Problem lösen, indem sie zwei dünne Decken unter das Leintuch legten, siehe Bild. Daher mussten wir die letzten 3 Nächte stornieren. Ebenso liess das Mittagsbuffet vom Restaurant zu wünschen übrig. Essen war kaum gewürzt, Pasts war überkocht, kleine Auswahl.
