Stickige Zimmer, hellhörig, extrem laut von der Strasse bis 1 Uhr nachts Fussball-Fans). Ab 7 Uhr früh Baustelle. Völlig überzogener Preis für diesen mässigen Komfort

"Jederzeit und gerne wieder!"

8.0

Engagiertes junges Team, ausgesprochen freundlich und aufmerksam. Wir wurden aufgrund Leitungswechsel des Hotels für 3 Tage zum Frühstück eingeladen. Sehr gutes Frühstück, regionale Produkte, gute Auswahl, ansprechend angeboten, auch hier sehr freundlich! Dankeschön! Perfekte Lage des Hotels mit tollem Blick auf dem Rhein.

Ruhige Nächte sind nur bei geschlossenem Fenster möglich, da eben zentral gelegen und Partygänger auch lange nachtaktiv waren; dafür kann das Hotel aber nix...

"Na de heropening van het hotel, vergeet oude recensies."

9.0

Enigszins afgeschrikt door oude recensies, toch maar geboekt, omdat ik in de buurt moest zijn. Geen berouw van deze beslissing. Er is nu een receptie; je wordt verwelkomd met een drankje en het personeel is heel behulpzaam met het beantwoorden van vragen. Kamers zijn prima en van alle gemakken voorzien; ook de prijs was prima.
