Perfekt für Bahnreisende - aber nicht in Hitzeperioden
Pros:

Perfekte Lage für Bahnreisende, schöne Einrichtung und schöne Zimmer: schön renoviert und dem Stil des Hotels gerecht geblieben. Schöner Raum fürs Frühstück - auch die Möglichkeit bei gutem Wetter draussen auf der kleinen Terrasse zu frühstücken. Gute Möglichkeit das Gepäck aufzubewahren und in der Lounge auch nach dem Check out zu verweilen.
Grundsätzlich sehr gutes Frühstück mit Bircher Müsli, sehr gutem Kaffee, Lachs, gutem Brot und guter Käseauswahl.
Das zum Hotel gehörende Restaurant habe ich Mittags ebenfalls genutzt: gutes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis, sehr nettes Personal.

Cons:

Personal beim Check-In sehr freundlich, beim Frühstück eher teilnahmslos und gelangweilt.
Frühstück sehr gut - allerdings: großes Manko: keinerlei frisches Obst!
Auch wenn mehrmals darauf hingewiesen wird, dass das Hotel keine Klimaanlage hat: bei drei Tagen hintereinander bei 30 Grad hat sich der Raum so aufgeheizt, dass trotz Standventilator an Schlafen nicht zu denken war (Fenster nachts öffnen geht nicht: zu laut!). Leider eine Zumutung! Ich komme gerne wieder - auf nicht im Sommer oder Spätfrühling!

Готель сподобався, можна лишатися на 1-2 ночі
Pros:

Розташування дуже зручне, біля залізничного вокзалу. Поруч є супермаркет. Також поруч фунікулер, звідки відкривається гарний вид на місто. Персонал привітний, можна приїхати раніше покласти речі до заселення. Номери гарні, великі і просторі, зручно.

Cons:

Було дуже спекотно, в номері немає кондиціонера. Сніданки мінімальні. Немає холодильника
