"Excellent breakfast buffet but expensive- as is the food in the restaurant, perhaps that’s because it’s Switzerland? Wonderful staff. Excellent luggage storage services"

"We were very dissatisfied with the hotel not having air conditioning. According to their amenities it said they have air conditioning, it’s really only a fan system and we had to keep the windows open because the air was so stagnate. If they advertise AC that’s what you expect. Never again"
