Reviews of Gasthaus Engel

Nice place, easy to find.

The breakfast is quite meager, but everything you need is there. WIFI works only in common areas, but not in our room. The coffee machine was broken. Strong street noise during the full night in the rooms ##21, 22, 23, 24, the opposite side see the railway.

Walkable distance from train station. Good base for few nights to venture other areas. Happy with the breakfast selection. There was a standing fan provided. Staffs were excellent. Do remember to check your booking messages for instructions.

Pillow could be a bit fluffier. Near the road side, noise was bearable to me.

I enjoyed their hospitality during my visit ,I appreciated the excellent courtesy and kindness.

The pleasure of the starting day meeting Staff courtesy and the excellent breakfast.

The staff were incredible. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

The room was quite small, but still comfortable.

We have passed through Sachseln on the train several times on our way down to the Jungfrau region of Switzerland. It is one of those places where we have said that we should stop sometime. Well this time we did. It is a lovely village on the Sarnersee (Lake Sarnen) with some very interesting history. We learned all about Bruder Klaus (Nicholas of Flue) and how he was instrumental in mediating peace between the 4 city and 4 forest cantons in 1481 to stabilize the core of what we now call Switzerland. Gasthaus Engel was a very nice place to stay, and is within walking distance of the train station. The rooms are small, typical of small family-owned European hotels, but certainly adequate, very clean, and include a nice breakfast. The staff is very good to work with and tolerant of my broken German (they speak English reasonably well, but are appreciative of an attempt to communicate in the local language). They have a gourmet restaurant there with inside and outside seating, and excellent food and service. The restaurant staff was very accommodating even on an evening when they were very busy. We would certainly stay and eat there again.

Location is good, the sights are nice and you can walk around the lake.

There are no restaurants close, you have to take the car and drive a bit on a Sunday evening if you haven’t bought anything before arriving here.

The staff is very friendly, and helpful. Rooms were clean and had everything we needed. Just 5 minute walk from the lake.

There wasn't anything we didn't like.

The chocolate cake! Comfy bed, friendly staff, shower

Location was a very pleasant surprise, the village is gorgeous and a very short walk to the lake. Everything I’ve seen in Switzerland is pristine, and this property is no exception. Breakfast was perfect for us. Didn’t try the restaurant so can’t comment.

Nothing.

Beautiful hotel, with plenty of parking places and great restaurant. Very well located, near the lake (5min walk) and market in front. Breakfast was good and the room was very clean. I definitely recommend and would come back.

The breakfast was very minimalist and very simple.

Dinner Accomodation, hygiene Staff

Wonderful staff, fantastic location, easy to find, restaurant very good. Loved everything about this stay

Great location near the train station. Helpful staff. Living near the main street, there is a good view of the hillside. Breakfast is okay with a fixed plate of sausage and cheese, would be great if fruit was provided for breakfast

A little bit noisy during the afternoon as the first floor serves as a restaurant, but still acceptable.

Proximity to lake. Friendly staff.

Small room

Location - close to the railway station Scape - sorrounded by a decent town and mountains Nice building Not a very wide selection of breakfast, but very delicious and fresh Very nice and helpful staff Fantastic restaurant with 5 star meals 🤩 Relatively comfortable bed Preferable prices

The rooms should be upgraded to be more soundproof, but at least they provide earplugs for free ☺️
