My week’s stay at Kloster was truly “a home away from home”. Staff were helpful, it was warm, spacious and historically characterful. The shared bathrooms were hygienic and well equipped. The view from my room of the Gampen was very pleasant and most importantly, the bed was perfect! Thank you.

The location is 10-12 minutes by public transport from the center, the stop is a few minutes from the hotel. Showers and toilets are shared, but quite clean and were almost always free. Cleaning is offered every day, change of towels is included. There is a bathrobe in the room. Light breakfast was a pleasant addition and included cheese and cold meats, croissants and freshly baked still warm bread, boiled eggs, honey and Nutella, cereals and muesli, fruit salad, as well as a selection of tea, coffee and hot chocolate, juices, smoothie, milk.

If you don’t prefer a private bathroom this is a very nice place. It’s roomy, very clean and nice staff. And for Switzerland a very low price for all the convenience

I like a simple, somewhat spartan room. My bed was comfortable and I could recharge my phone and fitbit. Shared bathrooms are not for everybody but they provided a nice robe for trips to and from and the showers were fine. Had fun with the staff at breakfast.

The hotel did not offer any ensuite facilities. Shower facilities were on each floor but took a while to find as signage was not clear. Very vlean facilities throughout. I would stay again.

Beaucoup de charme, mais il faut être attentif que salle de bains partagées sur le couloir et la sonorisation entre les chambres n'est pas génial. Sinon rien à dire (style ancien monastère).

Bijzondere plek.
Bijzonder om in voormalig klooster te slapen. Erger je niet aan krakende vloeren of gezamenlijk douches en toilet.
Unieke ervaring. Mooi gebouw. Voortreffelijk restaurant.
Mooie plek in het dorp.

Kein zweites mal
Das Zimmer war ohne Bad, wusste ich auch, aber die WC, Duschanlage war sehr weit vom Zimmer weg. Dabei musste man über ein Holzboden wo Geräusche machte. Auch im Zimmer hörte man jeder Schritt vom Nachbarn.
Das essen war gut, die Auswahl nach cht sehr gross
