Nice central hotel
Pros:

Great location right next to Selnau train station, clean room with hard bed (we appreciate quite hard beds). Staff were efficient and everything worked well. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant one night and despite not being a child-aligned place at all, they were friendly towards a small child at 6pm. There was a portable air conditioner in our room, though we were able to turn it off as it was not that hot in October.

Cons:

Being so central, there is a fair bit of road noise. Breakfast is okay and they do make eggs, but it is more a continental breakfast than an incredible luxury one.

A charming, small boutique hotel with friendly staff in a great location
Pros:

Great location on the edge of the old town, charming room with a peaceful view over the river & a comfortable bed.
An easy walk or a tram ride from the main station.
Eat at the onsite restaurant or choose from several great local restaurants, like Burgstein's Gasthaus Penalty.
Shops & supermarkets are nearby.
A common room with a coffee machine & a private terrace overlooking the river was nice

Cons:

The intercom & keypad for access after hours was a bit niggly.
