    The eerie feeling - this is an old fashion hotel but kept very nicely - the ambiance is wonderful and the view from the restaurant is stunning

    Rooms are a stark contrast to the rest of the hotel and are very underwhelming. Only reason I’m not giving this hotel 10/10. Walls are plain and room has a hospital feel. There’s no A/C which makes it uncomfortable when it’s 30 outside (we arrived in a heatwave). There’s also almost no furniture. The beds are separate (not sure you can get a room with a single bed for 2) which is not great if you arrive as a couple. Also no TV - I personally think it’s a good thing - view outside is better than everything you can watch, but heads up for someone for whom it’s important. Also pricey, but as is everything in Switzerland.

    Magnificent building in magnificent location. Great atmosphere of a Swiss village. Hotel is beautifully decorated and surrounding area is as scenic as it gets. Breakfast is fantastic and staff is friendly and attentive. Short drive from Lucern as well.

    Actually there wasn't much I didn't like. The meals are quite pricey, but so is everything in Switzerland. For the same amount of money, have a meal in the hotel overlooking the beautiful scenery around it is well worth it!

    The location of the hotel is exceptional, surrounded by mountains and nature, a small little village nearby and lots of hiking possibilities. The region of the Vierwaldstättersee or Luzern are a short distance away with the car. From Sachseln there are various train possibilities for those who'd like to not take the car. Another thing, which for some people could sound as a negative, but actually it's not: there are no televisions to be found anywhere in the hotel. Not in the rooms, nor in the lobby or restaurant. It's an hotel to experience a complete peaceful experience, with the nature and oneself or our loved ones!

    Whilst the service and location was perfect in every way I was disappointed that we had asked to borrow a power connector to charge our phone and was happily provided it. We duly returned it when checking out and when I checked the bill after I left I noticed they have charged 20 Swiss francs which converted to A$32 for use of the connector overnight. It is a shame such a beautiful hotel would resort to trivial charges like that. My suggestion is to buy your connector at the airport before your arrive at a much cheaper cost.

    The most beautiful location I have ever stayed.

    1. Room was small for the price paid. 2. Lack of basic amenities like a coffee machine or tea kettle or Fridge in the room ( an unpleasant surprise for the price paid ).

    Breathtaking location, Friendly Staff, Good Food, Excellent Breakfast.

    Big wedding during our stay making our sleep virtually impossible; the management « omitted «  to tell us about that after booking ; they did however contact us in advance to propose us the 4 course dinner; Very dishonest in my opinion, would not book here again

    I booked 4 rooms for me and my friends on a biking trip. There was a big wedding in the hotel and even though the staff was very quick to propose us by mail the 3 course dinner (which we took), they omitted to tell us about the big party. Needless to say that nobody in the group slept very well. I find it very dishonest of their part not to let us know about it; and of course, they did not even bother to give us rooms far from the party, we were just above it. We talked about it at the reception in the morning, we got plenty of « yes » , plenty of « we understand «  etc I would not book this place ever again, not because it’s not a nice place(on the contrary, it is), but because of the dishonesty and lack of care for the customers….

    The location, very clean, beautiful view

    It is huge hotel, but there is only a few parking places in front of the hotel. We had to park in a public parking place (unguarder) in village 400 m far from hotel. The room in very small. The furture is old, each piece is different style, different age, colour.

    Very nice nature surrounding the hotel.
