Amazingly beautiful hotel in a beautiful little town . We were surprised to know this is a family owned hotel and they were so kind and hospitable. They wanted to make sure we felt comfortable and provided us all the information we wanted. It was recently redone because of a fire they had a couple of years back and the property is phenomenal. Definitely coming back if I come to Switzerland again.

They made us an amazing breakfast with everything we like and they also considered our food tolerance which was so kind . Fresh sourdough bread and delicious scrambled eggs, and great coffee for me and hot chocolate for the kids. Beautiful and clean and a to die for view on mountains and greenery .

We received a warm welcome from the moment we entered the parking lot. The local treats, friendly reception, and detailed information about the region and the hotel made us very happy. It was wonderful that every detail was thought of for our daughter and our dog. The breakfast was very tasty and the portions were quite large. There were also coloring pencils waiting for our daughter at the table.

There was some construction in the area. Sometimes I could hear the noise, but not in the evenings. Overall, there was nothing negative.

We spent 3 nights at the hotel (me, my wife and almost 4 year old daughter). We have stayed in many nice accommodations, but I have to say that this hotel greatly exceeded our expectations. My wife and I have no shame in saying that this was the best stay we have ever had. Perfect, nice and always helpful staff. A beautiful, amazingly equipped room (great mattresses, comfortable duvets, and fine details such as high-quality, fragrant Swiss soap...). The owner was very helpful with tips for a trip, breakfast even in an almost family friendly spirit, we felt like we were visiting good friends. And the dinner at the local restaurant was absolutely amazing (Michelin starred restaurants could envy the quality). Even the town itself has its rural charm and there is a lot to see in the surrounding area within an accessible distance (lakes, chocolate factory, cheese factory, beautiful nature,...). Thank you very much for a wonderful holiday.

The weather was bad, so it was difficult to see the location, but what we did see looked amazing. We would like to return. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom excellent. The owners were very kind and offered information about the area and suggested places for dinner as the restaurant is closed on Wednesdays. They even arranged for us to visit a local winery, which was strictly still closed. Breakfast was very good in a good atmosphere as locals came in for their morning coffee. Melanie and Marcello were very good hosts.

Just some confusion over the honesty bar after we had left made me feel a bit uncomfortable, as I had been absolutely honest.

What a surprise. I was amazed to find such a lovely lead hotel in the middle of the wonderful Jura region. The owners couldn't be more friendly. With a very warm welcome, a modern, roomy, clean and beautiful room and a fantastic breakfast I was more than happy. Best of all for me was the exceptional barista coffee in the morning. Thanks for all, I'll be back. Andy

The breakfast was marvellous. The location was very pretty and quite. This place is amazing thanks to the lovely couple that runs it. It's the best hotel I have ever stayed in and I have been in quite a few. So clean and tidy. The service is excellent, you are looked after so well and given all the information about the surrounding area. The area is so pretty and relaxing, it takes your breath away. Thank you so much. Would love to return one day. A warm welcome makes all the difference.

We liked everything.

Lovely location in the countryside, so count on very quiet nights. The room is very nicely furnished with a large bathroom. The staff is extraordinarily friendly and proficient in several languages. They assisted us in everything we needed and provided us with a baby cot with no extra costs. We dined at the hotel restaurant and the quality of both food and service was outstanding. Our single regret is that we stayed for one night only.

Such a wonderful place. We felt very welcome the moment we walked in and were greeted with a glass of prosecco and huge smiles. Hosts were very attentive to our needs and went the extra mile in not only helping figure out a good hike, but also dropped us at the trail head after breakfast! Speaking of breakfast.... Best coffee we have had in a long time. Breakfast was lovely ..it included home made bread, croissant, a yogurt-oatmeal mix with blueberries that was delicious, and the usual cheese and sliced ham combo. All in all, very satisfying and a good start to an all day 20km up and down hike. The room was huge, and the bed was wonderfully comfortable. No TV , but who needs one ? There's a lovely family room/lounge area where you can relax and take advantage of the wine and beer on offer. It's a perfect place to relax and recharge after hiking; or just to stay and be chill. Well done.

Generally well designed hotel with excellent services. Friendly and professional staff. The rooms are big enough, the beds are very comfortable, the shower and toilet are very clean. The food was amazing, I liked testing new dishes I hadn't tasted before. I loved everything about this hotel! We had a wonderful time!

Truly exceptional small family hotel, new, funky and modern construction. As I drive around Europe, I intentionally look for unique hotels like this, and this was stunning. The hotel has an industrial look with lots of concrete and glass. The shower is just glass and open to the room, so be aware of that and no television, which was unique. The hosts are incredibly kind, happy and offer excellent service. Breakfast was served and impeccable quality. Even the whole hotel and rooms had a lovely smell. I had a Tesla and I asked if I can plug in while parking at the hotel, the owner allowed me to plug in my car. Charging was up to 2.2 kw per hour, which is lovely to get an extra 250 km's for free overnight. Thank you so much.

Nothing, everything was perfect.
