This hotel was in a good location in the Konstanz area along Lake Konstanz. We had tried to stay in Konstanz, in Germany but ended up here, in Switzerland.
We didn't know when we booked the hotel that there was a big local fair scheduled for that weekend, right across the street from the hotel. This meant several things for us. First, we had easy access to the free fair conveniently close by. Second, our rate was at the higher end of their range of prices because of the festival. Third, there was more traffic getting into and out of the area due to the festival. Fourth, it was pretty loud pretty late. If you're not there the weekend of the festival, you won't be bothered with any of this.
The hotel was very modern and clean. The bed was comfortable. The pillows were what I've found to be typical soft German style pillows. I don't understand this but it's a quirk that's part of traveling the world. The bathroom was really nice. The bathroom had a shower but no bath, which is how I prefer things anyway. The shower was very roomy with the best water pressure I've EVER experienced. One wall of the shower is separated from the bed area with a frosted glass wall. This means that you're going to hear your roommate showering if you're in bed. It shouldn't be a problem. The work desk and chair are very comfortable and functional. There is free internet in the lobby and free ethernet in the room. You're tethered to the desk but it's fast. Our room had a view that barely let us see the lake. We were on the first guest floor. On the second floor, I'd guess you'd get a much better view of the lake.
The bar in the lobby is a nice place to grab a drink. I didn't have dinner in the hotel but they have a restaurant on the first floor and it looked good. Based on the breakfast, with an excellent selection of food that was really good, I'd guess the restaurant is very good too. As other reviews have noted, free water and sparkling water is a really great plus.
The staff was very friendly and, as we're English speakers, extra flexible to meet our needs. They even had a power adapter that let us convert from a standard Central Europe plug to a Swiss outlet.
It's hard to put my finger on what makes me rate this hotel this highly but I just liked it and I feel confident that you will as well.
