Hotel berhampiran Geographic Center of Switzerland, Sachseln

Cozy stay close to railway station of this small town which connects to Lucern every 30 / 40mmin. Its a small little town and peaceful - not many restaurants but sufficient enough for 4 days when you have only 1 meal in the town. Facilities were very good, clean, easy access to train station, friendly staff always smiling and willing to help. When I travel back to Luzern, this place would be the preferred location to stay again. It's a small,.peaceful village...

Verena is a lovely lady, very chatty and only too happy to assist. Her house is beautifully renovated, wonderfully clean, and in a great location for exploring the local places - however as a fellow B&B owner (who regularly receives 10/10 on Booking com from my guests), I felt Verena’s guest house is best described as a “posh hostel”. She claims to have spent many years in luxury hospitality but as a guest it’s not luxurious if: 1) you have to take your dressing gown, towels, bath mat, wash bag and clothes into a shared bathroom; 2 shared bathrooms and two separate toilets for 5 bedrooms (10 people) is not luxurious. 2) you have to climb over your partner to get out of bed because the bed is jammed up against the wall on three sides, and as such you have no where to put anything during the night, no bedside table, or even a shelf above the headboard. 3) you have to go into the shared bathroom just to use the provided hairdryer. I do not understand why there isn’t one in each room. 4) you have to forgo reading your book in bed because the only (minuscule) bedside lamp is on the other side of the bed. In this modern era, and at £200 a night (even in Oct!), a shared bathroom / toilet is not acceptable (all of my rooms are ensuite); so it never even occurred to me to check that the rooms might not be ensuite at that price 😳 We stayed two nights and as such the room was tidied during our stay - but - all the towels that we had used were folded up ‘as new’ and put back on the rail amongst the unused towels. As conscientious eco friendly users we thought this an odd thing to do. We wanted to use the minimum amount of towels possible, but I had no idea what I had or hadn’t used so quite probably the whole lot would have to be washed unnecessarily after our stay, when we restricted ourselves to using just one towel each. Based on Verena’s system, keeping your towels in your room makes sense, however there is only a pretty metal stand on which to hang them up, there is not the usual radiator on which they can be hung to dry / air when damp.

Been to this hotel's restaurant a couple times already and really must recommend. The service staff are genuinely sweet and offer top-notch service especially to tourists. The food is consistently high quality, beautifully plated, piping-hot, fresh and enjoyable. I have just not even been slightly disappointed with this restaurant. Yesterday, my husband and I dined on Schnitzel and fries... crispy schnitzel, excellent, hot fries and some insanely mouthwatering ice-cream creations for dessert. Looking forward to trying their weekly lunch specials which are reasonably priced for Swiss standards. Their outdoor seating patio is comfortable and perfect for people-watching in this delightful city in Central Switzerland.

Wir haben nicht im Hotel gegessen. Auch kein Frühstück, weil wir am Morgen weider früh gegangen sind.

Die Lage des Hotels, mit der Aussicht und Panorama sind im Winter einfach wundervoll. Kurze Wege zu allen Aktivitäten. Im Hotel ist es gemütlich und lègere, nicht zu gross und gibt eine gewisse Persönlichkeit. Die Freundlichkeit des Servicepersonals in den Restaurants ist fantastisch. Danke dafür. Die Qualität der Speisen ebenfalls toll. Dass man an der Rezeption ungefragt mit englisch bedient wird, hat uns doch etwas erstaunt. Das Spa ist toll und vielseitig, das Schwimmbad dann doch etwas zu klein für die Anzahl Gästen in den Stosszeiten nach dem Skifahren. Aber eine absolute Empfehlung und jederzeit gerne wieder.

Always worth to have lunch/dinner here. Have been eating here always at least once when being in Engelberg. The location is very quiet and beautiful (pretty romantic). The restaurant has a cosy interior and a large terrace. The food is delicious and very worth the price you pay. This time I had a ”Schnitzel vom Schwein mit Fritten” as main dish and ”Emmenthaler Meringue mit Glace” as dessert. I can also recommend their cheese fondue (from my prior visits) also delicious.

Cet endroit est magique. Après le départ des touristes le soir, vous profitez d'un calme absolu. L'accueil et le service sont irréprochables. Le buffet du petit-déjeuner et le repas du soir avec appéritif sont excellents et le personnel chaleureux. A ne pas manquer le levé et le coucher du soleil !

Wir hatten 2 Nächte gebucht und kamen abends an. Die Seilbahn und die Zahnradbahn enden direkt vor der Rezeption. Zum Abend gab es ein wunderbares 4-Gänge-Menü, das man sich optional zusammen stellen kann. Zur Getränkeauswahl wurden wir ausgezeichnet beraten. Wir wurden platziert und hatten am nächsten Abend einen anderen Tisch. Wir hatten Glück mit dem Wetter und konnten den Sonnenaufgang vom Bett aus genießen. Das Frühstück ist ein Buffet mit allem was das Herz begehrt. Wir bekamen eine Tal- und eine Bergfahrt vom Hotel geschenkt. Den Steinböcken kamen wir auf 5 m nah. Der Sonnenuntergang ist vom höchsten Punkt aus einfach nur spektakulär. Der Aufenthalt auf dem Pilatus ist auch dank des ”Kaiserwetters” und der vielen Fotos ein unvergessliches Erlebnis.
