The room was quite small, but still comfortable.

The staff were incredible. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

There are no restaurants close, you have to take the car and drive a bit on a Sunday evening if you haven’t bought anything before arriving here.

Location is good, the sights are nice and you can walk around the lake.

A little bit noisy during the afternoon as the first floor serves as a restaurant, but still acceptable.

Great location near the train station. Helpful staff. Living near the main street, there is a good view of the hillside. Breakfast is okay with a fixed plate of sausage and cheese, would be great if fruit was provided for breakfast

The rooms should be upgraded to be more soundproof, but at least they provide earplugs for free ☺️

Location - close to the railway station Scape - sorrounded by a decent town and mountains Nice building Not a very wide selection of breakfast, but very delicious and fresh Very nice and helpful staff Fantastic restaurant with 5 star meals 🤩 Relatively comfortable bed Preferable prices

The view was amazing, clean room

Only had one towel and one pillow upon arrival, and even though quickly fixed up for the two of us, they didn’t have any spare towels for us so we had to use one. Bathroom was average.

Perfect for what we were after for the night travelling Switzerland. Staff were lovely and breakfast was good

The restaurant seems to be awesome, unfortunately we didn't pick the good dates and it was closed. We will have to come back :-) Otherwise, we suspect the room can be a bit noisy depending on other guest or if there's a lot of traffic, but we didn't had such issue during our stay.

Location was nice and close to the lake. Breakfast was really good. Staff was really nice. Clean and big room. Bathroom was a bit "old fashioned" but clean and usable. Free parking was really convenient.

I missed a water cooker in the room, but they provided hot water when asked.

Flexible staff; when we were late for breakfast the first day, they still offered to make us a sandwich.

We have passed through Sachseln on the train several times on our way down to the Jungfrau region of Switzerland. It is one of those places where we have said that we should stop sometime. Well this time we did. It is a lovely village on the Sarnersee (Lake Sarnen) with some very interesting history. We learned all about Bruder Klaus (Nicholas of Flue) and how he was instrumental in mediating peace between the 4 city and 4 forest cantons in 1481 to stabilize the core of what we now call Switzerland. Gasthaus Engel was a very nice place to stay, and is within walking distance of the train station. The rooms are small, typical of small family-owned European hotels, but certainly adequate, very clean, and include a nice breakfast. The staff is very good to work with and tolerant of my broken German (they speak English reasonably well, but are appreciative of an attempt to communicate in the local language). They have a gourmet restaurant there with inside and outside seating, and excellent food and service. The restaurant staff was very accommodating even on an evening when they were very busy. We would certainly stay and eat there again.

There wasn't anything we didn't like.

The staff is very friendly, and helpful. Rooms were clean and had everything we needed. Just 5 minute walk from the lake.

Nothing.

Location was a very pleasant surprise, the village is gorgeous and a very short walk to the lake. Everything I’ve seen in Switzerland is pristine, and this property is no exception. Breakfast was perfect for us. Didn’t try the restaurant so can’t comment.

Beautiful hotel, with plenty of parking places and great restaurant. Very well located, near the lake (5min walk) and market in front. Breakfast was good and the room was very clean. I definitely recommend and would come back.
