Quite expensive for the average room, but the employees were very nice and the room was quiet, good breakfast, in the center of Altdorf.
Breakfast was short of fresh fruit and veggies. Everything else was good. Hotel is in a great location with ample parking in the back. There's a Coop supermarket at the corner
We love the hotel, it was a Family trip first time in Switzerland, did ski 3 days and we took the bus and the train super easy. We also rented the ski gear close by like 10 minutes from the hotel.
We had a blast.
We chose the hotel due to its proximity to the Gotthard tunnel which was beneficial especially when closed due to an accident. The restaurant was good with excellent steak and a local wine. Our room was basic but clean.
arrived late. took care of us. gave us the family room. prepared an packed lunch for us all the next day to go to the mountains a great view from the room

Classic 3 star hotel in the center of Altdorf
It was a challenge to find the hotel as it is located in the pedestrian area so it would help if the confirmation included information about how to access the hotel. We ended up driving around for a while.
The hotel is well located in the center of the city. So it is easy to walk around town from the hotel. We stayed in Altdorf in the middle of July and the problem was that there were not a lot of options for things to do or places to eat.
This is a 3 start hotel. Given all the other reviews, we thought that this was going to better than your average 3 start hotel, but it was not. It is a very good, solid 3 start hotel.
As it was hot, there was a fan in the room and we were really lucky as it rained overnight and this cooled the room down a lot. Obviously, the hotel was built when you didn't need to worry about hot hotel rooms in the summer in Switzerland, but with climate change things are different.

convenient one night stop passing through. Hotel in the middle of town and walk easy to restaurants. Property could use a renovation
An der Rezeption wurden wir durch eine einheimische junge Frau sehr freundlich empfangen. Es entwickelte sich eine ausgesprochen lustige Unterhaltung. Das Frühstück war absolute in Ordnung. Das Bett / Matratze für meine Begriffe ein wenig zu hart. Das Hotel entsprach jedoch voll unseren Erwartungen.
Als tussenstop een prima / goede locatie. Vlot inchecken, goed ontbijt en eigen parkeerterrein. Accommodatie is wel verouderd maar schoon. Personeel niet echt communicatief.
