The hotel has a great location right across from the train station, which is incredibly convenient for travelers. The rooms have been newly refitted, but they did lose some of their earlier charm and there wasn't much natural light. The staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, making our stay pleasant. On the downside, the dining options were quite simple and lacked the variety we were hoping for.

The hotel is conveniently located right across from the train station, which made getting around a breeze. The rooms could use some character as they felt a bit bland despite being clean and comfortable. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the dining experience was a letdown, as the once superb options have lost their charm. Overall, it’s a decent place for the price, but there's definitely room for improvement.

This hotel offers a clean and comfortable stay with excellent views of the surrounding mountains. The staff is extraordinarily friendly and helpful, which added to the experience. However, while the rooms are great for families with their kid-friendly setups, the dining experience left something to be desired. Overall, it's a convenient location, especially for those traveling by train, offering good value for the price.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located right on the main street in a charming little ski town. The rooms are comfortable and have great amenities, but they can be a bit noisy due to the main road outside. The service was exceptional, especially the friendly staff who took care of us and provided a lovely breakfast. Overall, it offers good value for money, although the dining options could be improved.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, which is conveniently located right after the Gotthard. The staff was lovely and did their best, even suggesting a room change to keep me cooler during the hot weather. However, the rooms were on the smaller side and lacked proper air conditioning, making it a bit uncomfortable at times. The dining options were quite limited as well, so keep that in mind if you're looking for variety.

The rooms were quite small and very traditional in layout, although clean. It was a bit dark in the shower and could have used better lighting.

The staff were really friendly and spoke multiple languages. They were great at suggesting a move to another room.
