I had a lovely stay at the hotel, the room was very clean and cosy. The staff were all super friendly, the food was delicious and the general atmosphere was lovely!
In a lovely spot in the old town of Fribourg. Loads of things to do by foot although it is quite hilly. The lady on reception was amazing, really friendly and very helpful. If going back to the train station use the funicular, quite an experience (powered by sewage!) and takes all the hills out which is handy when you have cases
Lovely hotel on pretty square. Quiet and convenient for no4 bus.
Although wide range of à la carte for breakfast, small choice of breads etc and expensive.

Pour les plus :
Accueil du personnel parfait
Qualité petit déjeuner parfait
Lieu commun parfait
Les moins :
Chambre très très petite, porte de douche qui ferme mal, eau chaude variable (sûrement en fonction des autres chambres), petite télé , mais surtout ventilation de la salle de bain qui a fait un bruit toute la nuit qui nous a véritablement empêché de dormir correctement.
Pour le prix le rapport qualité prix est vraiment trop élevé !
Mais vraiment le personnel était au top du top c est hyper important de le redire
Très bon hôtel simple le personnel est accueillant et serviable
Le petit déjeuner est correct aussi on nous propose un buffet et des plats à la demande
La c est très bien pas de gâchi
Seul problème est le transport il faut prendre le bus 4 qui vous emmène devant l hôtel
Quand vous ne savez pas ce st embêtant car vous faites des kilomètres pour rien alors que c est tout prêt
Sehr herziges Hotel. Schönes Design. Alles sehr sauber und mit Liebe zum Detail. Freundliches, zuvorkommendes Personal. Super Frühstück. Das Restaurant ist absolut herausragend. Der Marktplatz vor dem Hotel bietet ausreichend Parkplätze.
Maravilloso hotel en un pueblo precioso. Preciosas vistas, personal amable, habitación cómoda. No desayunamos en el hotel porque terminaban muy pronto. Bus a la estación en la puerta, y tren turístico también.
