We loved this property. It was so serene. The wellness center was perfect for the end of our European holiday. Would highly recommend. The only recommendation (albeit very minor) I would have for the hotel is to offer some meal options that are a little more healthy/simple. But other than that, we absolutely loved our stay.

Sonntag Morgenessen vom Hotel auf dem Säntis Gipfe

Alles war wirklich top! ausser ich würde niemals mehr an einem Sonntag Morgen zum Morgenessen auf den Säntis fahren, viel zu viele Leute und die Organisation lässt zu wünschen übrig. Beim Ankommen mit der 1. Bahn, hat es keine Verantwortlichkeit die einem entgegennimmt und platziert. Also sitzt man irgendwo hin und muss dann den ganzen Platz nochmals wechseln, mit bereits vollem Teller. Das kann man besser organisieren, eine Person bzw. 2 an jedem Eingang zum Empfang der Gäste.

A Great Stay with an Amazing view

The view from the room was breathtaking and the complimentary treat was a welcomes surprise. Additionally, the town of Appenzell nearby is beautiful and welcoming. The only minor issue with our stay was that the coffee machine near the reception area was out service. Wish there was at least a hot kettle to make tea as the room does not include one. Lastly, use of wellness area was an additional fee, and based on the description alone, we did not think the cost was worth it. Maybe on a future trip we would revisit this. Overall, the Hotel is a wonderful option for those wishing to view the top of Säntis or explore the Appenzell area.

Hotel.com fails rate protection; ruins family trip

Booked hotel in June 2021 only for hotel to not honor their published rate. I thought i was protected by Hotel.com guaranteed pricing policy but Agent Ben only gave non-viable options for other properties. Not even in close proximity to original destination. Also lied about guaranteed rate policy/protection. And saying the company is no longer a partnered hotel because they ended their contract. Hotel is very much still available. In the end, definitely ruined a great family experience and no remedy or consideration for their failures.

Schönes Hotel, kleine aber schöne Zimmer. Die Herren an der Reception haben einen super Job gemacht. Sehr zuvorkommend, freundlich und speditiv ;). Das Service Personal am Abend (unser Kellner) war ebenfalls sehr freundlich und effizient unterwegs. Was die Effizienz angeht, dann kann man das vom Service Personal tagsüber im Restaurant, leider nicht behaupten. Sie laufen eher unkoordiniert und deshalb wartet man lange, bis man bedient wird, bis man die Karte bekommt (das geht nämlich nicht in einmal) und bis dann das Getränk kommt. Schade, da gibt es wirklich Verbesserungspotenzial. Ansonsten ein interessantes Hotel an einem wunderschönen Ort vor „dem“ spektakulären Berg und einer atemberaubenden Kulisse.
