Bichelsee-Balterswil Holidays from £497

The hotel has great air conditioning! I was there during a heat wave & the room temperature could be adjusted unlike some other nearby hotels. The staff was polite and helpful. The tram is right outside the front door and only 3 stops to the train station. My only suggestion is to have a mini fridge.

The hotel is very close to the train station, which is convenient. It’s very modern and in a modern office building. It’s kind of hard to find the front entrance. Our room was very modern and looked out over a courtyard in the back. Very nice breakfast was included.

Clean room Staff was courteous Breakfast options for vegetarian people was ok

If you are arriving with luggage after a long journey, getting there is very difficult unless you already understand the local bus system. Otherwise, you should expect to pay a very expensive taxi fare, which in our case was approximately €100. This is an important detail that prospective guests should know before booking.

We walked throughout the hotel calling out to see if anyone was there before finally finding assistance. After a full day of international travel, this was not the welcome we expected. Perhaps the most frustrating part of the entire experience was the lack of communication. Expedia attempted to contact the property repeatedly for more than a week regarding our conc
