Sehr gut gelegen. Relativ ruhig, etwas ringhoerig zwischen den Zimmern. Sauber, gutes Frühstück und Abendessen. Parieren sollte gratis sein.

Ist ok, reißt einen aber nicht vom Hocker. Das Einchecken war so mittelmäßig. Man wurde eingecheckt und das war’s auch schon. Kein herzliches Willkommen oder Interesse am Gast. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig, die Einrichtung Geschmacksache. Für eine Übernachtung völlig in Ordnung. Man könnte den Service und die Freundlichkeit etwas optimieren, damit man sich als Gast willkommen fühlt.

Normaler Business-Hotel Standard mit Potential

Es war ok, die Zimmertüre war nur mit sehr viel Kraft und Gemurkse zu öffnen. TV: keine Schweizer Sender! Ganz bitter, weil ich einen Match mit der Schweizer Nati schauen wollte 😡. Morgenessen normal und unspektakulär. Das Restaurant am Abend war ehe schlecht, unterdurchschnittlich. Scheinbar dort beim Service bekannt, wie die Dame mir sagte, dass die Tomatensuppe bspw. völlig versalzen war und sich einige Gäste geäussert hätten. Deshalb insgesamt 3 Punkte, mit Potential.
