Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A four-star hotel in a former guild hall on the Reuss in the heart of the Old Town, with river-view rooms, a French restaurant and a riverside terrace. It suits travellers who want to be among the medieval lanes and bridges. Dogs are welcome for a per-night fee and are allowed in the restaurant and bar. Chapel Bridge and the Jesuit Church are on the doorstep.
