10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is in a nice location in Beckenried with great views of the lake from the balcony. The room itself was a little dated. It would be much more pleasant to stay there during the warmer months if they had air conditioning. And the room was lacking a refrigerator which most hotels have these days. The breakfast buffet was very good and offered a nice variety of food options."

10/10 Excellent
"This property is excellent in every aspect. We were 3 adults and 2 kids and booked the largest room, which is called te backpacker. It came with 4 bunker beds. That's the only part I did not like because I wanted at least one queen or king bed, but that was ok. There were other options to book that came with that setting but the rooms were smaller. Our room had 2 bath 2 showers, 2 of everything lol. It had the best views of the Alps. The bus stopped right outside plus the train which we never used as we had a car. The common kitchen was extremely useful as we cooked our own meals and saved a lot. The town is super quiet and beautiful and very close to some local attractions. The staff were very nice and helpful. The check in and out process were also very smooth and easy. There's limited parking on site, so for the last night when the hotel got busy we had to part at the train and pay 8 franks for 24 hours. I highly recommend this place and will definitely go back with my family again."
