Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Close to train station. Overnighter for Bernina express. Gave us a breakfast to take away as we left early. Probably would of had time to stop as it is not a long walk to station. Nice size room, shared bathroom. Everything we needed for an overnight. Good price.
Väldigt autentisk känsla i mitten av Chur. Väldigt trevlig restaurang som tillhörde hotellet.
We liked the location and the restaurant downstairs was beautiful.
We didn’t like our room for the price.
Great location, close to the train station. Very clean and very good breakfast.
The only bad thing was that there was smell coming all the way up from the restaurant below. Also, the room is a bit small.
Desayuno el aseo compartido
El aseo compartido muy bien
Tolle Lage in der Altstadt von Chur. Ein gutes Lokal plus anständiges Frühstück. Ich war damit sehr zufrieden. Das Zimmer war groß und das Bett bequem.
Die Sanitäreinrichtungen mit Etagendusche/WC sind nicht mehr up to Date, aber es war zweckmäßig und störte mich wenig.
Really clean and comfortable. Good breakfast, friendly staff, great location in the old town.
The hotel is a bit tired and in need of some renovation. My single room was very basic, would benefit from some pictures on the walls. Ideally it would be nice if all rooms were en suite but the shared bathrooms were clean, I never had to wait to use them and the cost reflected this.
Sehr zentral, im alten Stadtkern, der Autofreie ist. Sehr gutes Restaurant dabei.
Ich denke das Gemeinschaftsbad hat mich etwas gestört, jedoch gibt es ja auf jeder Etage auch ausweichen Toiletten
Location was ideal. Breakfast was very good and the staff very helpful.
Lokalizacja, śniadanie
Zbyt wysoka cena, brak toalety w pokoju, brak kontaktu z hotelem przed zameldowaniem, bardzo głośno po godzinie 22
L’emplacement dans la vieille ville , le restaurant est excellent
Pas d’ascenseur et les WC sur le paliers les rideaux sont trouées et le mobilier limite. Cependant le lit était confortable.
Zentrale Lage in der Innenstadt und Mailänder Salami zum Frühstück
It’s in the lovely old town, close to the train station
N/A
Clean and great location , 8 min walk to the train station
If you are traveling summer be ready for the warm rooms. No A/C and fan.
Clean & good location
Shared bathroom, but i was already aware of this and never bumped into anyone at the same time
Nära till järnvägsstationen. Rent och snyggt i rummet. Ok frukost.
Trapporna!
Sehr zentral, tolles Frühstück, nettes Personal.
Unkompliziert
Location. It was clean.
The location was perfect.
The staff was very very rude and the rooms were really falling apart. My floor had tile coming off and was a weird configuration for how much money we paid. The rooms are very loud because theyre right in the center, which is good for some reason and bad for others. Mostly the staff is extremely rude and not present after asking for things we needed multiple times.
The location was great, and had excellent traditional feel. Plenty breakfast.
Rooms lovely but small. No air con.
Amei o local, as acomodações atenderam a minha necessidade, a localização é ótima, o restaurante do hotel nota 10. Fui pelas recomendações e por muitos elogios que vi nas avaliações, principalmente em relação à gerente Ana, realmente merece todo elogio que recebe. Eu estava viajando sozinha e passando por momentos difíceis, fiz a viagem pra comemorar meu aniversário, fui tão acolhida pela Ana, jantei no restaurante do hotel na noite do meu aniversário, cantaram parabéns pra mim, fizeram toda a diferença na minha viagem, sou imensamente grata, pois não me senti só... A meninas da limpeza que falam português, foram muito gentis, fiquei muito feliz por estar ali. Eu pedi tanto a Deus pra colocar pessoas boas no meu caminho nessa viagem e fui atendida, através dessas pessoas. Tudo muito bem limpo, organizado, super recomendo. Agradeço do fundo do meu coração pela estadia tranquila e em paz, era o que eu precisava.
Não tenho do que reclamar...
Gute Lage, gerade im Stadtzentrum.
Es war laut, weil da unten gibst ein Restaurant. Das Bett war mir zu weich.
Frukosten var bra. Läget var bra.
De gav oss ett litet rum med högt sittande fönster fast rummet var beskrivet att det hade utsikt över staden
Stadt und Bahnhof nah Sauber aber winzig Frühstück richtig vielseitig und lecker
Minni Zimmer
The hotel itself is perfectly fine. The room was comfortable and clean, the receptionists were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was very good. They even let us begin breakfast before the official time since we needed to get an early train.
Although the location is convenient to the train station and overlooks the charming old village plaza, the downside of being on the plaza is the unbearable noise from all the drunken revelers frequenting the bars until 1:00 am. We got very little sleep. And we had to keep the windows open because it was a very warm night and there is no air conditioning. I would only recommend staying there if you are a late night person yourself or a very heavy sleeper, or go in the cooler weather when you can sleep with the windows closed.
Staff super Friendly
There was nothing
Die Kellnerin Olga, die war sehr freundlich. War auch gesprächig
Das einchecken war echt problematisch, das Personal war sehr unfreundlich ,genervt, unprofisionell.Hatte 3 Zimmer alle auf verschiedenen Etagen gegeben.Ich musste alles genau fragen und es wurde auch nicht gesagt das es eine Chur Karte gibt. Würde nicht weiter empfehlen. Ach ja es war ziemlich Laut ..Bei offenen Fenster zu schlafen...musst auch extra nach Fernbedienung fragen ..und wurde sehr freundlich abserviert...das sie schon alles gemacht hätte für mich ....
Het hotel had vriendelijke bediening. De kamers en inrichting zijn simpel maar wel degelijk en netjes.
Het ontbijt wordt niet bijgevuld en is ook niet ruim. Het eten wat er lag was prima. Rond 08:00 was grotendeels van alle producten reeds weg. Dit is erg jammer aangezien je voor een volledig ontbijt betaald.
Die Lage in der Altstadt, Fahrradgarage
Platzwahl beim Frühstück: Da wurde man als Gast ganz unangenehm durchgemanagt. Die Bedürfnisse für einen gemütlichen Platz zum Ankommen und Start in den Tag sind mir wichtig. Ein " Setzen Sie sich bitte da hin mit recht strikter Anweisung ist eher People Management als Gastfreundschaft.
AUB GEEN MAILS MEER STUREN, WANT BEZIG MET BEGRAFENIS NA OVERLIJDEN FAMILIELID
Zie boven
Das Haus liegt super zentral.
Możliwość przechowania roweru. Śniadanie syte i smaczne. W samym centrum.
Brak
Zentral, freundliches Personal, einfaches aber gutes Frühstück
sehr Ringhörig, Reinigungspersonal war bereits früh Morgens sehr laut im Gang, Toilettenspülung ging nicht richtig, sehr unangenehm in einem Gemeinschafts WC
Era muy acogedor, me bajaron a un piso más cerca por las maletas y la atención de la chica de recepción fue increíble, y está al lado de la estación, muy cómodo para tomar el bernina , además el desayuno es muy bueno
Si bien no tiene ascensor, me ayudaron y dieron un habitación en piso más abajo.
L'emplacement dans la vieille ville et le petit déjeuner copieux.
Les toilettes et la douche sur le palier.
Emplacement en plein centre de la vieille ville. Hotel d époque avec salle boisée. Grand garage pour vélos
Monter les étages sans ascenseur J’aurais apprécié un ventilateur durant cette période caniculaire
Emplacement central et dans la vieille ville
Chambre un peu monacal et exiguë, peu d’équipement, très difficile avec une forte chaleur
Great price and location ... a short walk to the train station. Breakfast was wonderful.
I had to call to be let in .... but there was a party festival in the street on that particular night.
Top Lage
Hôtel spartiate mais sympa où je suis revenu pour un second séjour, après avoir dormi deux nuits dans un 4 étoiles. La nouveauté cette fois-ci fit de découvrir la terrasse, très agréable les soirs de canicule, et très agréable le matin tant la vue y est remarquable.
Ma chambre était cette fois encore plus petite et sans aucune penderie. Bon c'est l'esprit de l'hôtel, et c'est sympa quand-même.
L'hôtel est en plein cœur du centre historique et à 10 min de la gare. Beaucoup de chambres sont dépourvues de salle de bain mais le côté Salles de bain communes est vraiment sympa pour un séjour estival. Le personnel est assez sympathique, mais parfois un peu strict. L'hôtel fait aussi café et restaurant ce qui a l'air assez sympa. Le petit déjeuner était compris.
Dans son genre, c'est un bon hôtel, mais il faut adhérer à ce genre. Pas de salle de bains dans les chambres, pas d'ascenseur, des chambres assez petites, etc. J'en garde cependant un excellent souvenir. Cela manque de cintres dans les placards. Et le petit-déjeuner est sans doute géré d’une façon un peu trop stricte. On nous sert en café, sans aucune autonomie, ce qui impose souvent de se restreindre, c'est un peu dommage car je doute que les gens abuseraient beaucoup de la machine à café.
Good value, clean, friendly staff, great location near train station
No fans or air conditioning
Great location. Shared bathroom worked.well actually.
Room was hot and no.fan. Hotter than normal summer though.
Location Value for money Clean Hardworking and friendly staff
No fans or air conditioning in early August made it a little uncomfortable
Location to old town
Mitten in der Altstadt von Chur. Alles fußläufig erreichbar.
Die Einrichtung ist in die Jahre gekommen. Leider hatten wir auch an einer Stelle Schimmelflecken an der Wand. Die Abluftanlage im innenliegenden Bad und in der Gemeinschaftstoilette war defekt. Für schweizer Verhältnisse nicht gut.
The location is absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of the historic city center. The train station is about a 15min, and there are plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. The atmosphere in the city was magical in the evening, there was even a free symphony concert on the main square, which made our stay especially memorable.
Unfortunately, the service at the reception was very disappointing. I have stayed in more than a dozen hotels this year, and I have never experienced such poor treatment of guests. The woman at reception was extremely rude and spoke to us in a raised and unpleasant tone. What was particularly uncomfortable was that she behaved in the same way not only with us, but also with other guests. It left a very unpleasant impression. The breakfast was also disappointing. The food was not very tasty, and the selection was extremely limited.
Prachtige locatie, midden in de oude stad. Sfeervol gemoedelijk hotel in authentieke stijl. Alles in de kamer is scheef ook de muren en vloeren 😉 Goed ontbijt. Vriendelijk personeel. Je kunt niet direct bij het hotel parkeren. Maar er zijn 2 parkeergarages op 5 min lopen.
Er zijn maar 1 toilet en 1 douche/toilet voor de hele gang (9 kamers) - desondanks wel schoon en netjes. Leg op met parkeren in de parkeergarage: als je geen parkeer app hebt, kun h je e alleen met munten betalen. Dir moet vooraf, voor de geschatte tijd dat je er zult staan!
Odlična lokacija, smještaj je bio čist i uredan, a osoblje ljubazno. Odličan doručak 😁
Situation, literie
Bruyant, très chaud en été, rafraîchissement possible que en ouvrant la fenêtre sur ruelle bruyante et fenêtre du 4e étage très dangereuse
Traditional Gasthaus on edge of old town in Chur. I had a room with shower, but shared toilet. For some reason my booking.com reservation did not come through onto their system, but they checked details and I did get the room I had booked. Staff helpful and professional sorting the problem. Local food and beers available. They offer a take out breakfast if you're going to be up early. Needs to be ordered evening before, obviously. Would stay again.
Initial hassle sorting my missing booking, but resolved reasonably quickly.
La gentillesse des dames au petit déjeuner! Et leur sourire et disponibilité! Et le petit déjeuner: tout bien!
Juste un peu trop chaud dans la chambre, or la canicule
La ubicación
No tiene aire acondicionado, la noche que estuvimos hizo mucho calor.
Die Lage ist traumhaft! Die Altstadt ist super schön, ruhig und bietet nette Außenbestuhlung an jeder Ecke. Der Bahnhof ist super gelegen und alles ist fußläufig super zu erreichen.
Das Zimmer war sehr klein und nur für sehr kurze Aufenthalte gedacht. Leider war das Zimmer nicht so „urig“ eingerichtet, wie auf den Bildern dargestellt. Die Einrichtung des Zimmers war leider nicht so schön.
Отель понравился, нас все устроило, останавливались на 1 ночь перед Bernina Express. Завтрак скромный, но все вкусно (особенно сыр), сытно, голодными не остались. Было бы здорово, если бы в номере был чайник, но для 1 дня прибывания, не критично. В номере была раковина, чтобы было удобно.
На этаже был 1 туалет совместно с душем. Очереди не было при нашем прибывании, может быть другие номера оснащены туалетом, поэтому у нас проблем не возникло. Лифта нет, но наши сумки были легкие, для нас это не проблема.
Zentrale Lage super! Personal nett und zuvorkommend. Frühstück reichhaltig und ausreichend.
In 4. Stock Dachzimmer heiss bis unangenehm. Keine Durchlüftung möglich. Um 2 Uhr Morgens auf Dachterrasse war es herrlich
Locatie midden in centrum op een leuk pleintje en dichtbij station
Geen eigen sanitair en geen airco
Bra frukost och även restaurang på hotellet.
Ingen AC….
