Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in the heart of the old town, offering a great atmosphere and friendly staff. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and spacious, but noise can be an issue. The service is top-notch, especially with their amazing fondue, though some language barriers may exist. The location is superb, right in the old town with beautiful surroundings. The dining was satisfactory, but lacked vegetarian options. Overall, a good value for a stay in a charming historic setting.
The hotel offers tiny rooms with impeccable bathrooms. It can be noisy at times, but the service is exceptional with very helpful staff. The location is perfect for exploring the Old Center and surrounding areas, although it may feel more like an inn than a traditional hotel. The dining experience, while nice, lacks variety in breakfast options.
The hotel had rooms that were clean and suitable for a couple, but a bit noisy due to thin walls. The location was perfect in the middle of the old town and next to the train stop for Arosa. The dining was basic but okay, and the service was typically Swiss, polite, but not very helpful.
