Fantastic view.
The most luxurious stay in Switzerland for us. We enjoyed every bit of it as a family. The staff goes out of their way to make it a luxury stay. The concierge was very helpful and knowledgeable. The room is equipped with everything you need with a touch of finesse. The food is fantastic. The location couldn’t be better. There’s a kids' playground right behind the hotel, seemingly their backyard, and an even better kids' club with loving staff. The pool is unbeatable with a fantastic view. You could visit Brunni/Titlis/Trubsee for activities year-round.
