This hotel is very convenient. You exit tge train and walk to the hotel on platform one. Our room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the view of the lake and city from the terrace and were the only ones there.!! Breakfast is not included and cost Fr.18 ($22) We chose to walk to the Migro supermarket about 8 minutes down near the lake to get our yogurt and fruit instead. The staff were very friendly and helpful from the minute of our arrival.

Ideally located for train travellers - you can access it straight from the end of platform 1. Quiet and clean with friendly and helpful staff and positioned just 2 minutes up hill from the lake, it was perfect for our needs. The only downsides for us were the breakfast (not good and extremely expensive) and the fact that our quad room had a shared balcony with another room and only 3 chairs on it.

The property was well located, very modern and in good condition. We had a room with views to the lake. The reception staff were very attentive and very willing to help. A great breakfast was available. The hotel also has laundry facilities. If you have a car book ahead for parking. The only negative was the lack of power points which made it difficult to charge accessories or use a hair dryer. Would stay again.

The location is great. You can actually walk right off Platform 1 of the train station and into the hotel. It’s a little off the main street so you do hear the train a little but better than hearing people in restaurants and such. Only a few min walk to the water and stores/cafes. The room was spacious. The staff were super friendly and the self-service laundry was a nice amenity to have.
