Das Zimmer war sehr angenehm und das Personal überaus freundlich; die Atmosphäre wirkte familiär. Auch das Essen war vorzüglich. Die Kirchenglocken um 6 Uhr haben mich geweckt — ideal, um pünktlich zum Frühstück zu sein und einen Skitag zu beginnen.

Le chauffage de la chambre n’était pas réglable…trop chaud ! Dommage
This is a very quaint hotel, only negatives not enough power in the room and could not find any English language channels on tv. The staff was so helpful the owner went out of her way to help locate a rental car for us. One last issue there was no safe or refrigerator in the room this was a minor issue we delt with.

The view was good and the BF was okay as well. But the rooms were pathetic. Too small and keys (old fashion) sometime doesn't work..
Sehr freundlicher Empfang, große und saubere Zimmer mit einfachem Standard, der aber völlig ausreichend iat und somit auch der Klassifizierung des Hotels entspricht. Ordentliches Frühstück und auch dort sehr freundlicher Empfang. Wir waren für eine Nacht auf der Durchreise im Hotel und würden es jederzeit wieder buchen.
Amazing little town hotel with friendly staff and a great restaurant. Easy to walk to grocery across the street and to views of the lake down the road.

Kamers prima maar ook niet meer dan dat. Eenvoudig restaurant tegen een stevige prijs
Nice old-style bed and restaurant hotel with a lovely staff that was very detail oriented during check-in. Felt very at home in the pub area and during meals.
Bedding was quite comfortable and peaceful. You will hear guests walking about the stairs and over your room with the older wooden build, but it was part of the charm in a way.
Dinner was very good and the morning breakfast spread is typical European flair and filled us up for the day.
Views of the mountainside were wonderful, TV selections vary in many different languages if you get stuck inside for a bit.
Small grocery store across the street and the Post Bus heading to Stans or Seelisberg picks up right in front of the hotel. Very convenient for hikers or if you want to take one of the few cable cars up the mountains.
Das Zimmer war schön und sauber, nur das Fenster ist zu hoch eingebaut.. man konnte kaum die schöne Aussicht sehen.
Das personal ist sehr nett! Das Frühstück einfach, Wurstplatte nicht ansprechend. Für einen kurzen Aufenthalt voll okay.
Beautiful surroundings, and the breakfast was very good. We arrived late and ate dinner at the restaurant inside the hotel. The atmosphere was wonderful.
