Room was very nice .. just lacked AC like all hotels in Switzerland so was hot even with a small fan and tiny window open. The hotel was very conveniently located and the parking was reasonable (15 chf per night) in a lot nearby. Breakfast was good. Staff was friendly and very helpful.

Aarau is an adorable old walled city with a river running through it and the hotel is charming, but also completely renovated inside. Staff was super nice. Bottled water and breakfast was included.

It is a fairly basic room with no special amenities; bring your own shampoo etc. There is a Nespresso machine that is greatly appreciated. Also the restaurant is quite good and the staff very efficient. Many restaurant, cafés, and pubs closely located on food.

Leider warm

Leider war unser Aufenthalt nicht sehr angenehm. Das Zimmer war sehr warm, da es keine Klimaanlage gab. Dadurch war das Schlafen schwierig und wenig erholsam. Insgesamt empfanden wir den Komfort als unzureichend.

Das einzige, was ich persönlich schade finde, sind die Kosmetikprodukte auf den Zimmern. Diese entwerten das Ambiente und wirken billig und sind zudem aufgrund der Inhaltsstoffe bedenklich. Ansonsten gefiel uns das Hotel sehr gut.
