    A kettle in the room would have enhanced our stay.

    Room was ready for our early arrival. The breakfast buffet was beautifully presented, with a range of fresh choices. Conveniently located to train and bus station.

    The window curtains didn't prevent light from entering the room.

    Location right across from the train station (which could be good or bad), but we loved arriving on the train and immediately seeing our hotel.

    I didn't like that there was not staff when arrived to hotel. The room number and floor number written on envelope with the key and instructions was wrong. The lady at reception during the first morning was not able to print the bill for tourist tax.

    Location perfect close to raillway station. Room was clean and spacious. I like that I could open the window. It was a little noisy during the night. Breakfast was excellent. The lady serving the breakfast was very nice.

    When I looked at Booking.com for a hotel in St. Gallen, the notice said there was only one room left in the city. The cost was noticeably higher than I was looking for. The location was exactly what I needed so I went with it. Be sure to read the hotel emails sent out ahead of time. The notice said there would not be an agent at the hotel to welcome guests. They gave a passcode to the front door and gave instructions on how to locate the room key. I would have preferred an agent welcome me. Getting onto the WiFi was not as convenient as at other hotels; once on the internet, it worked fine.

    Great location, across the street from the train station, very convenient. Room was clean, comfortable bed. Nice breakfast, lots of variety

    Unfortunately the process of city tax payment was organised extremely poorly, which created a lot of unexpected inconveniences. I truly hope that staff or hotel management will pay more attention to this not to create so many problems for the guests.

    First of all: the location of the hotel is absolutely amazing within a short reach from the train station and also very near the city center for exploring. The rooms were quite nice and comfortable, though a bit small. But that didn’t cause any inconvenience. The breakfast was great even though there were not many of us staying at the moment in the hotel, the staff still bothered to get a good and varied breakfast ready for us.

    My room was noisy with what may have been an air conditioning unit in the adjacent building. The airconditioner in my room also made a strange noise from time to time. The lighting in the room is rather dim.

    Good location. Helpful instructions for check-in as the desk was not staffed.

    I went down to Breakfast at 8 AM (middle of service) and most items I wanted were either gone or nearly gone. Not sure why the staff was not replenishing the food as it was not like it was near the end of service.

    The rooms could use a little refreshment. It's not a new hotel, that's clear, but the furniture and room door were scratched and it doesn't look so nice anymore.

    Location is great, you can see the SBB station from the window. It's literally across the street. The monastery is also quite close and there are many shops around. It was very clean, bed was really comfortable, breakfast was excellent! Staff was kind and let us leave our bags at the reception while we did some sightseeing.

    Our room was rather small (only enough space to cabin-size luggage). No dining discount for hotel guests at its Japanese restaurant on 1st floor

    Right opposite the train station, close to many shops and restaurants, 3min walk to Abbey Library of St Gall

    This is the kind of place that is largely staff-less--I didn't see anyone at any hour of the day or night. When I arrived my key was with the restaurant on the corner, which did work out ok. Also my room was a bit on the noisy side, just with the city environment--with the window closed it helped. They provided earplugs :)

    Super convenient to the station, very nice building and room for a reasonable price

    Good location ! Clean & tidy ! Breakfast : was not good service , no warm food as eggs , and the excuse was no cook available , this for the 3 days we stayd at the hotel ., not even boiled egg that you don’t need a cook for to do it !!! And Monday was less guests at the hotel they just had 1 kind of bread and I had to ask if was not other type as I don’t eat white bread , then they said , if you want whole bread I can go to buy it ….we had the feeling because of less guests they served less things , no fruits and other details … but the day before we did had more complete breakfast …. this is no fair with the guests that had paid for it , despite the numbers of the guests at the hotel the service has to be the same .and we didn’t that less …for Swiss standard , no go !!
