Food in the restaurant is very quick, but unfortunately not good.

4/5
Overall the accommodation was very nice. The breakfast was excellent and offered a wide selection: fruit, cheese, various types of sausage, tomatoes, cucumbers, croissants, bread, muesli, nuts, dried fruit as well as coffee and tea - there was really something for everyone. 🙌One small point of criticism: the French bed was unfortunately very loud and squeaked with every movement. The pillow wasn't particularly comfortable and the mattress was too soft for our taste. 😅 This is of course subjective, but maybe helpful for one or two guests.For families with small children: There are some stairs, making the property difficult to access with a stroller. There is a kettle in the room.Additional amenities in the hallway: books, a Nespresso machine, a waffle maker, an iron and fresh apples. 👌🏼

Great hotel right on Veloroute 8. Beautiful rooms, cozy roof terrace, rich breakfast buffet and very friendly staff. But CH the in-house restaurant is highly recommended!

Small but nice hotel including restaurant. Very uncomplicated. Was only there one night. Booked a single room with shared bathroom including breakfast. Got a double room with bathroom and paid the price of the single room. So TOP. Breakfast for €10 included was very tasty and generous for the cost.I also ate in the restaurant in the evening, very friendly and attentive service and good food. I can only recommend!

Unfortunately the food wasn't a hit.The salad had lice on it and was soggy.Schnipo and Cordonbleu are recommended.You should avoid pizza.The pork schnitzel was also in the pan for too long... squeak squeak.There were five of us, two got the right food, the rest were disappointed. Rivella non-carbonated.We were there once.A pity..

The rooms are pleasant and not too noisy.The food in the restaurant is excellent and reasonably priced, we enjoyed it every evening including the friendly service.

Overall a good hotel. Unfortunately located on the main street and therefore really loud. Sleeping with the window tilted or open is only possible with earplugs. The “scent” of the restaurant wafts through the house. Breakfast quite simple. Very good fresh bread. Delicious coffee. Room price on weekends in Switzerland is typically too expensive for the standard offered. (180 chf room/per night)

It should be noted that the hotel and restaurant operate under separate management.For me it took some getting used to.Nothing else to complain about, except the service didn't convince me.The price/performance ratio is right for both units.

I booked this hotel through Booking in April 2024. My account was mistakenly charged for two overnight stays (two rooms for one night). To this day, the hotel refuses to refund the excess amount paid. …

Regarding restaurant: I ordered from JustEat a while ago and the food was very tasty, not a classic delivery meal. That's why I wanted to order again, but today my order was canceled for the third time after a certain wait, for no reason. If you don't want to deliver you shouldn't offer it, it's really tedious and annoying.

This was the second time I've been thereHotel guest as part of a business trip. The rooms are clean and modernly furnished, the hotel staff is extremely friendly.I find the restaurant, which is also located in the house, to be recommended to a limited extent. The waiter isn't unfriendly, but he's not particularly friendly either. The food is generally quite expensive and sometimes absurdly expensive. There are few or no alternatives in town, which is probably why you can charge such prices.The pizzas are okay.So in summary: the hotel can be recommended, the restaurant only to a limited extent.

Unfortunately it didn't meet our expectations, moderately friendly and definitely not enough on the plate after a day's work, repeat orders had to be paid for in full. The food was okay so far. To be successful you need more.

Very modern renovated old house, with a little rustic touch. Ideal for a trip break or during a hiking or bike tour.
