Hello Expedia, This is regarding Itinerary # 72527315933031. We booked two rooms for two days at Hotel Laudinella in St.Moritz, Switzerland from 10 to 12 June. I initially contacted you on 4th June regarding cancellation of one room, explaining the situation of my parents, who are senior citizens and were tired after sightseeing and travel in the US and were unable to travel to Switzerland. Expedia spoke to the Hotel and informed me that the hotel is not accepting cancellation. Then I called the hotel directly and the lady initially said that I can speak to the manager once I am there at the Hotel on 10 June. When I reached the Hotel on 10th, I explained the previous discussion had with Expedia and the hotel staff and I told him that we are only two adults with one child and we need only one room. He did not entertain the request and gave me the keys for two rooms. He said that he cannot do anything and the people in the reservation desk already left for the day and I will have to wait till next morning. Next morning, I enquired for the reservation desk, but the lady at the reception called a number and asked me to talk to the person on phone line, saying that the other person on the line is from the reservation team. The lady on the phone line rejected my request citing Expedia rules do not permit to refund/credit. So, Expedia is blaming the hotel and hotel is blaming Expedia. I request you to look into the problem and issue a credit so that I can use it later.

Dear guests,Thank you for sending us your review. We are sorry to read that you were not satisfied with your experience with us. It seems that there has been a misunderstanding during your call to the hotel. We apologize if we were not clear enough on the implementation of our cancellation policy. Your cancellation on the 4th of June was already outside of the free cancellation period - which was stated in your booking confirmation and which you were told by Expedia and also by the reservations team when calling. Unfortunately, we were not able to reconstruct your statement that the manager can make an exception on site, as this is not our usual procedure. We sincerely apologize the any inconvenience caused.Kind regards,Your Laudinella management

While the room was big, the power sockets around the room was poorly positioned around the room. There were either no shelves near the power socket or the table was far too low from the power socket. It felt as though the hotel never gave thought about such basic needs.

Dear guests,Thank you for taking the time to send us a review. We are sorry to read we did not meet your expectations. Our newly renovated rooms actually already have more power sockets which are also better positioned. We are in the constant process of renovating the remaining rooms and will of course also install the power sockets there accordingly.Kind regards,Your hotel Laudinella team

Great property and very spacious for European hotels! The wood appearance, the stenciling, the fireplace in the main area , all felt very “ski lodgy “ and charming. Again our room was very large and spacious compared to other European hotels. My disappointment , the spa area was closed for a couple weeks and that’s one of the reasons I had selected this hotel bc as an American, I wanted to experience a European hotel spa and the full experience. 😞. The breakfast was plentiful ! Of all the places I could have selected with a hotel spa. I understand of course that maintenance and upkeep have to occur but I couldn’t help but feel disappointed and sad that that had to happen during her one night I was there. I would certainly stay there again though!

A superb stay with superb staff
Absolutely perfect - the Covid-19 precautions were excellent and not intrusive. The breakfast buffet items were all separate with the birchermuesli and joghurt in small glasses. Everything was done to make the guest safe. The staff were perfection itself, being polite and especially the gentleman at reception very helpful.

Convenient location, nice hotel
I stayed in a Superior Double Room with Balcony for 6 nights. The room was quite large. The balcony had 2 chairs and a small table. The room had many windows, with great views of the mountains. Ample plugs and lighting. With the windows closed, it is pretty quiet, but there is some noise from the parking lot and bus route in front of the hotel. Dark curtains blocked the light well. There is a safe and a water heater for tea. No fridge. The TV had quite a few channels in English. Lots of closet space. The room was very clean.The staff was friendly and helpful. There is only one elevator in the section I was in, and it was very slow. Great wi-fi. The hotel is right next to a bus stop, which allows you to get anywhere in the area (free with the transportation pass included with 2+ nights stay). The breakfast buffet was large, with breads, cheeses, salami, etc; yogurt, cereals, fruit; a chef cooking eggs to order, fried rice, OJ. The hotel gets bus tours, so it was busy, but I never had trouble getting food quickly or finding a seat. The hotel has a number of different restaurants, which provided some nice options.

lovely stay
Lovely large hotel. Beautiful room, well stocked, lovely staff. Staying at the hotel includes a shuttle from the train station and use of the St. Moritz city pool. At first, I was a little put off by the fact that we had to walk up the street to swim, but the city pool is one of the most beautiful swimming facilities that I've ever seen. Multiple pools, including an outdoor deck pool with Alps views, and a lovely spa. Laudinella is in St Moritz Bad, not the city center, but it has a lot of bars and restaurants and, with the shuttle service, we never felt isolated. The only down side is that the hotel caters to tour groups (probably standard for this type of hotel in this area at this time of year), but they can make a lot of commotion when they arrive and leave the hotel (or descend on the breakfast buffet).

Okay hotel, snooze of a town
The hotel is okay, I guess. I am just really disappointed by St. Moritz. I can’t think of any reason, honestly, to go there. If there was ever an attractive Old World kind of village there, with any kind of historical charm, it is gone now, torn down for Prada and foo-foo designer nonsense stores. My advice: skip St. Moritz.

Lovely hotel good location but room too hot.
The hotel was in a great location, good selection of restaurants in the hotel and enjoyed the ovaverva spa which was included. The room was nice and comfortable but our only complaint was it was too hot in the room, there was no air con or fans available so we had to sleep with the door wide open and the road was noisy. It was about 20c outside so not boiling. It maybe so hot as we were on a high floor. Good breakfast included too.

Nice hotel and location
Hotel in nice location just outside of town. Room very clean and comfortable. We had evening meal in the Pizzeria restaurant in the basement which was excellent. Only let down was no coffee available within the room, seems only select teas are available. Breakfast was a bit chaotic as it is all self service. Guess this depends if hotel is full. Free transport back to the railway station.

Hotel provided free transfer from & to the train station. The most unique feature was the hotel has very good restaurants on site. We tried the Thai and Italian restaurants on two nights and both served very good authentic food. Hotel offers half board for guest (breakfast + dinner), which the throw in free afternoon tea. They also offer ski pass. Both are good deals.

Don't go for the single room
Bit of a dated hotel in St. Moritz (as many of them appear). The single room that I was first given didn't have a working heater and no range for the wi-fi, and with nights going to -10 C, I asked for another room. Was given a nice double with a great view of the mountains. Not sure what the price difference would have been, but this room was a whole lot nicer. Great breakfast, the best of four Swiss hotels that I stayed at while on this trip.

We decided to choose Laudinella for our stay in St.Moritz as they provide complimentary pick up an drop to station. The hotel was very well located with bus stop and the cable car stop in close vicinity. The breakfast was good with wide variety of fruits and cakes. My wife loved the pool.

Not the best choice
The premises are old and run down. The rooms are in a similar condition. Bathrooms in particualt in need of some money being spent. Old stale smoke smell throughout. Not a place I would recommend. The manager was very helpful. Our first room offering was a shocker , my wife outrightly refusing to stay there. The manager kindly offered us two room choices the third a lot better than the first two but still not value for money.

Shocking reality
The hotel's restaurants are spectacular! but that is all that should have 3.5 star classification complimented by the hotel room prices against the Lundinela name! Paying 220chf per night for a room that was last decorated in the 70s was a rough disappointment. There was absolutely no style about my room and neither were there any usual goodies all hotels with that many stars provide. Lamps in the room were plastic and can be bought for few euros in cheap shops. bins were plastic. windows are very aged as well with slight mould inbetween. Only one towel in a room, no slippers, no dressing gown, no towel for hair. Staff very fake! I stay in upmarket hotels worldwide and have not experienced such attitude anywhere. Guest double bed, yet only single duvet. Hotelrooms in the main building may have the standard advertised on a website, but neighbouring building where I stayed really needs some serious upgrades if they intend to charge this much money! Sauna - small space with overcrowded rooms full of naked older people - yet they charge extra 20chf for this? That really was a last straw!
