The location was great, staff were very helpful, and the breakfast was delicious. The room did smell like smoke and the bathroom door is clear glass, which was awkward.

First off, i arrived at property in a rental car and all the check in spaces were occupied by taxis and other people, so i drove around for an hour in circles trying to catch a space open with no success. I googled parking for the hotel and it took me to the valet lot behind a gate. The gate opened, so i drove back and parked. The valet workers, who were very nice, walked me to the front to get checked in. Instead of being apologetic for everything i needed to do to just get checked in, a very rude, dark featured guy at the front desk guy demanded i let him know how i got into the parking area. This hotel is overly priced for subpar standards, and you would think they would make up for it by having friendly front desk attendants who didnt ooze with a feeling of some misplaced superiority( the other attendant, a blonde female, seemed friendly and not upset that we parked where we did). Overall, after check-in, the rest of the stay was decent with a lot of beautiful architecture to view as you walk around the city. Glad i went, now i can check off list, and probably wont return.

The hotel’s location was excellent, and despite its dated appearance, it maintained good quality. The room had a bathtub, although it was a bit high for shorter guests. However, cleanliness was impeccable, and the breakfast buffet was delightful.

Everything was great, rooms are a bit small but still bigger for Swiss standards. The glass between the main room and the bathroom meant that we had to leave for our teenage daughters to take showers since it was completely see through. Otherwise, it was great.
