Wangen bei Dübendorf Holidays from £594

We loved having access to the guest kitchen including the fridge. The back terrace was in full bloom and a lovely place to sit in the evening with snacks and a drink after a busy day of being tourists. The breakfast was amazing with home made goodies (and we know they were homemade as we were in the guest kitchen getting water one day and the very lovely staff member was taking delicious smelling treats out of the oven!), a nice selection of fruits, cheeses, breads, etc. The staff were very helpful with suggestions and directions as well. Overall it was a 10 out of 10 experience!

Instead of staying in busy Interlaken, I decided to treat the family to Beatenberg Resort and Spa, which looks amazing on website. Sadly, the website must be AI generated or 20 years old. Pros: staff were friendly, though I only saw two, at separate times. The hotel is clean, for the most part, but our bathroom had a very unpleasant odour and we literally had to ‘mouth breathe’ or feel nauseous. The views of the Alps from back of hotel are spectacular. Cons: Hotel Restaurant is closed for renovations, though there are no renovations visible. This was major problem since the few other local restaurants were full, and we had to bus back to Interlaken for food. This was not evident on booking hotel, and we were not notified. Hotel Bar does not exist, albeit listed on website. Pool table does not exist. Breakfast buffet was very poor quality. This is posted as 4 star hotel so is unacceptable. Eggs were greenish, and foul smelling. There were cold chicken nuggets (yes, chicken nuggets for breakfast) and some other items but the only thing we would eat was croissant and an apple. There is an instant coffee machine. Grounds are neglected. On website there are pics of a wedding ceremony on back grounds. I can only assume this is AI generated. All of the listed ‘activities’ refer to things that can be booked in Interlaken, not at hotel. Ultimately, this was our only mistake in Switzerland so we didnt let it ruin our trip.. However, for 1000 CHF/night stay we feel robbed.

Clean room, friendly staff, great breakfast! The views of the lake from the room were superb. Just a heads-up to anyone picky about AC, there is none. There was a fan in our room and with the windows open, the warmth was manageable.

What a pleasant stay! This is a very beautiful hotel. The pool, spa and fitness center were lovely additions to our overnight. Breakfast was fantastic!

Love the hotel. If I return to Zurich - I wouldn’t look at a different hotel would immediately book this one
