Negative Reviews
negative:
Too expensive for some
Despite most agreeing
the hotel is good value, some previous guests found the price too high, though
this is more of a reflection on the cost of accommodation in Switzerland as
oppose to prices at this hotel specifically.
negative:
No air conditioning
The hotel does not
offer air conditioning, which is naturally not a problem for most of the year
in Switzerland but can be an issue in summer and warmer months.
negative:
Street noise a minor issue
A number of previous guests found noise from the street outside to be
somewhat bothersome, with several comments on that from guests who preferred to
sleep with the window open.
