The staff were the friendliest of any hotel we've stayed in, and the rooms were clean and had a great view. Great decor, classic without being dated, and the restaurant had great food, including freshly caught, local fish. The breakfast had a good selection of food as well. We were given directions for a great walk around Vitznau by the... More

Furniture and decor from a bygone period teamed with today's comforts such as a modern bathroom, good mattresses and tasty cuisine. Service is excellent. Everything has been thought of to make your stay easy e.g. tickets for the Rigi Bahn are already available in the hotel and sheepskin rugs warm you on the terrace in the cool of the late... More

We stayed at Hotel Terrasse in april. Our standard room was a bit small but decent, with a door to first floor terrasse. We sat outside in the evening and looked at the beautiful view on the lake and the Alps, outstanding! The owners are friendly and helpful and gave us lots of tips for our holiday in the area....

We have stayed at this hotel for six years and eagerly await our next visit. The setting is idyllic, right next to the lake and the boat station and adjacent to the "Rigi Bahn" for the cog trains to Mt Rigi. The bus stop is a two minute walk away. It is therefore possible to travel with ease to almost... More

Two hours by boat and train from Zurich Airport, this is the ideal spot for independent travelers. The views are fantastic and the English-speaking hosts provide wrap-around advice for guests of any age. Travel back in time on the old paddle steamers from Lucerne which dock beside the hotel terrace or take a trip up the mountain on Switzerland’s first... More

My wife spend 3 - 4 weeks annually in Vitznau and I have been aware of Hotel Terrasse for some time and chose it for a stop over on my way from the US to a German conference. The couple who operate the hotel are most friendly and helpful. The rooms are small but cozy--I go to Vitznau for the... More

I guess it just shows that the luck of the draw plays a part when you're booking a hotel. My wife and I have stayed at the Terrasse twice: two years ago and twelve years ago (when it was under a different family ownership). On both occasions we specified, prior to our visits, the type of room and facilities we... More

We went there for a wedding party. The staff was the most passionate and friendly at the end of the stay, when we payed and left. The greatest: the location. The worst: for >100 Euros/ night, small rooms, old bathrooms, no newspaper, bad coffee. Reasonable breakfast buffet. For this money, try something else. Forgot to mention the 2 EUR credit... More
