Great Location, numerous eating options right in the heart of old town and less than a 10 minute walk to the Banhof! Very safe area as well. Room was clean, European spartan, but everything you need. Check-In/Check-Out was very simple.

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay. Location is fantastic. Staff were friendly and helpful. Check-in was easy. The room was very clean. My only suggestions would be to provide some drawer space (for example, a working night table rather than the decorative one) and have firmer pillows available.

Great for short stays!

We had a one night stay at the Swiss Chocolate at it was lovely. Such a fun quirky hotel, with an ample supply of chocolate in the fountain. My room was a single room with a lofted layout, which i needed to be careful at night during any descents to the bathroom. The room was very clean and had the amenities i needed to be comfortable.
