Schloss-Hotel am See - Swiss-Chalet Merlischachen

Lovely room with magnificent view over the garden and lake and mountains; we loved the little residents-only garden area where you can sit and relax by the lake (or swim if you're so inclined); the small public bar next door was good for a drink and snack; we had a very nice a la carte dinner in the main hotel restaurant across the road

The room was a reasonable size but not large enough to be called a "junior suite"; you have to walk across the road for breakfast which is a very expensive additional cost - we opted for a simple coffee and croissant instead. If you don't want to drive far for food you are a bit of a captive audience as there are not a lot of options to eat out in Merlischachen.

Nice garden and breakfast

Not well isolated regarding noises.

Set beside the lake with its own private section with sun-loungers to enable clients to swim in the lake as well as sun-bathe. Good food in the restaurant and a tranquil setting.

It was extremely hot during our stay and the hotel doesn’t have air con and the fan they provided did very little to cool the room down; this, combined with a rock hard bed meant we were unable to sleep and the heat in the room made for an extremely uncomfortable night...
