Lovely Hotel with friendly staff and great food
Pros:

The Hotel is just brilliant but not cheap. The Food and restaurant/Bar is the best and would visit just for the home made food.
The quality of almost everything is wonderful. Such a lovely hotel

Cons:

Its a bit more expensive than I would normally pay for a hotel in Switzerland.

Herzerwärmend und bleibende Emotionen
Pros:

Frühstück und der Kaffee 1 mit*, Abendessen und Bar ebenso und für Schweizer Verhältnisse im "erträglichen" Preisbereich. Die Ausstattung des Hotels und der Zimmer ist hier zweitrangig, weil es sich um ein sehr liebevoll restauriertes und gut erhaltenes Historisches Fachwerkhaus handelt. Treppen, Zimmer, Wände (Schalliso) und Installationen sind eben alt und haben halt auch diesen Charme. Ich möchte auch nicht von Personal sprechen, es ist wie nach Hause kommen, nett freundlich hilfsbereit und immer mit einem Lächeln. Vielen, vielen Dank für die tolle Zeit bei Euch. Wir haben es geliebt und würden gerne wiederkommen.

Cons:

Die Kissen, aber da bin ich eh etwas komisch... ;-D

Pros:

Krásná lokalita, chutná snídaně, příjemný personál.

Cons:

Na pokoji bylo prasklé umyvadlo a manželská postel byla opravdu malá. Ne, že by obojí nějak zásadně vadilo, jen to kazilo celkový dobrý dojem z hotelu. Myslím, že **** hotel by si zasloužila při této ceně víc péče.
