Die Lage am See ist einzigartig!

Das Hotel liegt wunderbar direkt am See, aber auch direkt neben dem Bahnhof der Rigibahn. Das Rangieren der Wägen beginnt sehr früh und falls man bei geöffnetem Fenster schlafen möchte, kommt man in den Genuss dieses Rangierens.¨ Das Frühstück wurde ab 7.30 Uhr kommuniziert. Als ich am ersten Morgen um 7.30 Uhr im Frühstückssaal war, stand schon gebrauchtes Geschirr auf einigen Tischen und es hatte keine Wurstwaren mehr. Am zweiten Morgen war genau das gleiche nur dass kein Brot und nur noch ganz wenig Butter und Käse vorhanden war. Auf Nachfrage wurde mir unwirsch mitgeteilt, dass der Brotlieferant Verspätung hatte und das Brot noch aufgebacken werden müsse. Ich habe definitiv regionale Produkte bei diesem Frühstück vermisst. Die Ausstattung des Zimmers ist ein Mix zwischen altbacken (Bett und Schrank 60er Jahre und Bett quitschend) aus nostalgisch (freistehende Fussbadewanne in der Mitte des Zimmers) und modern (LED Lichter über der Wanne) Das Hotel verfügt über kein Restaurant!
