Great location and the 2 Bedroom Suite was comfortable. Unfortunately after we checked out, my father tripped over an inconspicuous metal door stopper just outside the hotel's main entrance. The stopper, though in the middle, was not easily noticeable, causing his left shoe to become trapped, resulting in a fall. He sustained injuries to his chin, forehead, and chest, and his spectacles were damaged when his face hit the ground. While a male staff member at the reception initially provided some assistance, the overall response from the staff was lacking in empathy and concern. Despite his injuries and our distress, they appeared indifferent and quickly resumed their duties on their monitors (Note: there were no other guests nor phone calls that the two staff at the reception attended to during this time), without offering further assistance or expressing empathy. When we sought help in in booking a taxi to the station following the incident, the staff's demeanour remained unfriendly and the quoted price differed from what the driver demanded upon arrival - 18 CHF. Staff did not provide any additional support. Regrettably, my father's chest injury persists to this day, causing him pain whenever he exerts his lungs even slightly. This unfortunate incident has undoubtedly overshadowed our impression of the hotel and highlights the importance of prioritising the safety and well-being of guests, and of compassionate customer service, especially during times of need.

Pros: convenient location to train station, quiet rooms, cleaners were lovely. Good shower pressure and temperature. Cons: breakfast room in windowless basement with no variety in the limited breakfast offering. Not what I would expect from 4*. Limited storage space in bedrooms and no hooks for coats/ski wear. Path from street to reception down a slippery slope. For the price paid it didn’t feel like good value at all.
