The hotel is historic and previously was military officers housing. It sits near a beautiful park and with an easy walkable incline. Highly recommend this hotel when staying in St. Gallen, Switzerland.
Fantastisk og ekstraordinært sted! Gode parkeringsforhold og tæt på offentlig trafik. Æstetiske og smukke værelser. Dejlig restaurant! Fantastisk venlig og kompetent betjening - de skaffede os f.eks. busbilletter til et særevent.
Sehr gutes Frühstück.
Freundliche, zuvorkommende Mitarbeiter und Gastgeber.
Auch der Hund wurde wie ein Gast behandelt mit Wasser, Leckerchen und Decke.
Die Einrichtung ist suber, und spartan.
Wenn es im Zimmer für 3 Personen auch 3 Sitzgelegenheiten hätte, wäre das super. Ebenso ist das Licht für düstere Tage im Zimmer zu schlummrig gewählt.
Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis ist jedoch sehr gut.
Minimalistisch, puristisch, alles was hier gemacht wird ist top - sonst wird es weggelassen. Kleine Karte, grosses Essen. Spartanische Zimmer, himmlische Betten. Geiles Parkett - klar, dass es quiets hen muss! TOP!

Preis-Leistung der Menus stimmen nicht. Essen und trinken ist eher teuer für das einfache und schlichte Ambiente des Restaurantbetriebes.
Très bon séjour, chambres propres, très spacieuses.
Petit déjeuner complet, restaurant vraiment agréable, service sympa.
Nous aurions apprécié avoir 1-2 options de repas moins "élaborés" pour les petits enfants, qui sont sortis de table en ayant faim car n'ayant pas vraiment mangé. Mais pour les autres la cuisine était délicieuse!
Merci
Das Hotel hat eine sehr gute Lage und wir waren insgesamt sehr zufrieden. Insbesondere das sehr reichhaltige Frühstück wusste zu überzeugen. Das Zimmer war auch schön. Einziges Manko war, dass wir die Fenster in unserem Zimmer nicht komplett verdunkeln und das Zimmer bei der grossen Aussenhitze auch nicht richtig herunterkühlen konnten.
Hervorragendes Hotel, ein Haus mit tollem Flair, freundliches und zuvorkommendes Team, gut gelegen, nur 15 Gehminuten bis in die Altstadt, schnelle Verkehrsanbindung, trotzdem sehr ruhig. Geheimtipp!
Sehr schönes Haus, sorgfältig und nachhaltig renoviert. Die Zimmer für meinen Geschmack etwas kühl eingerichtet (dafür 70iger Jahre Stil). Bettdecken zu kurz.
Superschönes stilvoll und sauberes 3er Zimmer. Besonders erwähnenswert ist das reichhaltige Frühstück, das man sich nach nach Lust und Laune selber zusammenstellen kann. Wir hatten Glück mit dem Wetter und konnten das Frühstück im schönen Garten genießen.
.Das Hotel ist außerdem sehr zentral gelegen.

Ruhiges Zimmer bestellt - Zimmer zur Strasse bekommen.
Leider war das Zimmer etwas mufflig, Baustelle auf dem Stockwerk und das Haus ist durch sein Alter eher laut. Kein TV Gerät auf dem Zimmer. Frühstück eher sehr schwach.
Guter Kaffee.
Ein schönes Hotel mit Ambiente und nicht all zu weit von der Altstadt entfernt. Parkplätze sind glücklicherweise vorhanden, kosten jedoch pro Tag 15 SFr.
The Hotel is clearly to expensive for the accommodation received
The family room is clearly overrated since the kids have to sleep in a walking closet
Be aware that you pay additional 15 sFr for the parking
Rooms facing the street are incredibly noisy
Sehr schönes Hotel, leckeres Essen,tolles Personal
War ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt im Hotel.
Der Zustand ist wirklich sehr gut. Die Zimmer mit dem nötigsten eingerichtet, schönes Design.
Auch was alles sehr sauber.
Positiv aufgefallen ist das leckere Essen, der super nette Service und die tolle Stimmung.
Was ebenfalls schön ist sind die Holzfussböden, welche aber auch den Nachteil haben sehr laut zu sein....es ist sehr hellhörig und man hört wenn jemand im Nachbarzimmer wach ist und herumläuft.
Aber alles im allen ein sehr schönes, zu empfehlendes Hotel!
