Swiss-Chalet Merlischachen - Romantik Schloss-Hotel am See

Second hôtel of our road trip in central Switzerland. We booked the Swiss-chalet on the hotel website with very good deal and pre-paid our overnight stay, with the objective to spend a night in a typical Swiss timber chalet. We drove in the village and easily found the huge parking in front of the hotel. The reception is in Schloss hotel on the other side of the street. We were presented with the surprise of an upgrade in the 4* hotel instead of the chalet 1*. With a small deception of not experiencing the Swiss chalet type of building we accepted the upgrade, it is not every day. 😉 The Schloss hotel is decorated with medieval weapons, and have a direct access to the lake. Our extra large room offered a view to the lake, a entrance hall, a large salon space with armchair and table and a small balcony. Mid October is unfortunately not the best time to enjoy this nice balcony oriented to the lake and to the south. The bed is extra large and very comfortable, with 2 duvet covers. The bathroom have obviously been renovated a few years ago and look pristine. The minibar beverage are free, and we have 2beers, 2 soda and 2 bottles of water, it is not a cheap attention. All amenities you can expect from an hotel of this level. The only specific you’ll have to adapt, is that you need to dress yourself up to go for breakfast in the Swiss Chalet 100m away. Not a big deal for us since the weather was good, it could have been more inconvenient if it would have rained or snowed heavily, so you know. I’d guess there should be some kind of room service for breakfast, but I did not check. Overall a lovely experience. 🙏🏼

Check in was fast and effortless. We were able to get a reservation for dinner at the same time. The hotel interior is charming and elegant. A cafe next door sold us a wine to take to the waterside at the hotel’s private park. Dinner at the hotel restaurant was absolutely delicious. You must have the chateaubriand. Beautiful setting. We will be back!

Good room with excellent romantic setting. Lovely service and good getaway from the city

One of the best hotels we've ever stayed at in terms of setting and service. The front of house staff were both friendly and very efficient helping with both queries and advice. The restaurant and breakfast rooms are located in a seperate building opposite the main hotel. The breakfast buffet was high quality with a good choice of food and, while the hotel restaurant menu had a number of interesting dishes it wasn't our style of food. That said, there is a great Argentinian restaurant right next door which served a wide variety of the most excellent food backed up by very friendly and helpful staff which we would recommend most highly. Thank you Merlischachen for five wonderful days

I loved this quaint hotel with wonderful old world charm, nestled in a small town close to Lucern, Merlichachen. Beautifully maintained structural wood beamed rafters, doors and hardware of medieval style throughout the hotel. Also, of equal charm was the serene lakefront property grounds, beautifully landscaped and was a lovely quiet respite from our travels. The bathrooms were completely remodeled and beautifully appointed with everything new and immaculate. If I am fortunate enough to return to Switzerland, I will certainly stay in this hotel.

We had a very comfortable overnight stay. Facilities and people were great.

We loved it, it was so nice and peaceful

Overall is good and clean. We paid extra for the "lake view" but the vision of the lake is very limited. Do Not suggest for the lake view.

was wonderful
