A beautiful and charming old hotel with all the modern conveniences in a stunning location by the water. Fantastic service, beautiful restaurant and food, and just a short drive into Konstanz.
Lovely property, excellent friendly staff, great reception and check in. Very clean and well presented in a beautiful location. Dining indoors and out on the waterfront is great. Car parking was easy to access and very convenient. Overall an enjoyable 2 nights stay
Wonderful experience, loved the location, the sunset and the views, the Old World charme, the Breakfast Buffett was delicious. The hotel was right on the water and one could have gone for a swim.
What a beautifully renovated hotel in a cute historical town. Francesca was so kind; hospitality is her forte!!
Will return in summed months to enjoy the lake!
Great place with a lot of character.
Reception staff were so friendly and helpful.
We had a beautiful view of the Rhine and the sunsets. Went for an evening swim right outside the hotel. The complimentary buffet breakfast was amazing!
Beautiful property! Old world charm and wonderfully, clean, updated and scerene. We loved our stay! Very friendly staff, we were traveling with our 17 year old daughter, the room was set up with a a bed for her when we checked in. Breakfast is included in the price and it was fantastic! So many wonderful options and we ate our meals outside with the view of the lake. Took the boat right from the dock to visit other towns - so easy to get around. Parking was right out front - which was also a bonus. Simple, quiet town to walk around and view the lovely homes with wonderful gardens. I highly recommend this property
Hotel schöner rustikaler Styl.
Leider kleines Zimmer, rutschige Dusche
Terrassenstühle und Fassade voller alter Spinnweben
War den hohen Preis nicht Wert.
