The service was very friendly, the morning buffet breakfast was vast by most standards, the waterfront location was incredibly scenic and set up perfectly for a lakeside resort. Definitely see if you can get a room that overlooks the lake. The downtown area is right across the road and where you have access to restaurants, shopping and historical sites. This hotel also had many bikes for rent which is a perfect way to tour this town and scenic lakeside roads. The only thing to note is that our beds had very firm mattresses, however they were comfortable even though I have a softer mattress at home. I highly recommend staying here. Ask for a room that looks over the water

The hotel is an old monastery with centuries of history and lore. Terrific breakfast buffet and very efficient staff. While the low end rooms are small, they can often be booked for 100 euros which is a bargain. Parking is reasonable and much appreciated. Swear I saw a few spirits one night in a dark hallway but might have been all the grappa! Would stay again in a heartbeat!

It is rated 5 stars but the price is comparable to 4 or 3.5 stars in US so it was a good value. The room was spacious, elegant, relatively new, has ocean view. Hotel offers bike rental. I got a regular bike and my wife got an electric bike. We went around Konstanz. In town, there were lots of sidewalk cafes and shops with old town / European feel. The weather was perfect in the afternoon (end of March). On way to/from town, you ride by the sea. It would've been nice to stay a day more. Buffet breakfast in an elegant setting with picturesque ocean views - cappuccino and made-to-order omelette are included.

This hotel was quite accommodating and the staff was very friendly. The room was a bit on the small side, but then again most European hotel rooms are small in comparison to the US, and it was just me staying by myself. Plus, the point is to get out and see the city, not stay in your room! The breakfast here is GREAT. If this were just a breakfast restaurant it would get 4 stars alone just for that. I hope to come back some day.

The reason why I am giving this hotel a three star review has to do with the lack of a few things…read more First it does not have any air conditioning which is pretty normal for this area but the windows can't be open at night because there are no screens. Again pretty normal. But it makes for a very oppressive stay when the weather is hot. Which it was in the beginning of July. Also, on one of the nights of my stay there was a wedding and things got pretty loud with the music and partying. A group were staying on the next floor and they pretty much spent the entire night celebrating. Don't get me wrong I am all for that but they should put the party on the lower floor and not directly over someone. The management was nice enough to comp one night of my stay but it doesn't makeup for a very hot sleepless night. Other than that the property is very well situated with commanding views of Lake Constance.

For dinner we were eating at "Wave Emily". Eventhough it has "only" 13 Gault Millau Points it was outstanding! In my opinion totally more than 13 Gault Millau deserved. All the courses i had were excellent and very special. Really recommandable! 5/5 Service: Very attentive, friendly and informative. The timing was as you expect at such a price-class and very well educated. 5/5 Spa: They have a good variety to go for a wellness. Incl. an outdoor whirlpool and fireplaces in the inside which look very cool! 5/5 Bar: The bar has a very good atmosphere (with fireplaces and beautiful views) and good stuff. Unfortunately not such a great variety of alcohol 4/5 Atmosphere: The whole restaurant is designed kinda like a boat. A lot of wood and metal. It looks really nice and the rooms are good-looking too. They are a little but older but still in good shape 5/5 (for rooms 4/5) Location. JUST WOW! It is situated at a very big lake (which sometimes looks like the ocean) and the view is just amazing. 6/5.

As a part of Annette's 100 review challenge for this week; 'review your favorite winter activity',…read moreI decided to review this brilliant hotel up in the Alps. Historically I have always been in charge of travel itineraries for trips my husband and I take, for the reason that I enjoy planning these events and for the reason that I tend to kick some serious butt at it. In 2006 I planned a surprise long weekend for my hon, and took him up in the mountainous Alps. Not only was the drive from Munich wonderfully beautiful (minus the hefty speeding ticket), once we arrived in Bad Ragaz we knew we were about to have a wonderful time. In German speaking countries, any city or town that starts with 'Bad' has to have (by law) very pure and clean air, and/or another form of natural therapeutic qualities. In the old times (and still nowadays) doctors would often recommend for their patients to either vacation in or relocate to one of these 'spa-towns' to improve their overall health. So in this case bad actually means good. I cannot tell you the look of surprise on my husbands face once we pulled through the gate, and he realized that we were staying in a true castle. The castle is ancient, dark, beautiful and everything you would expect a castle in the Alps to be. Though old, it is nicely kept up and very clean and regal. The room we stayed in was the size of a small studio, it was gloriously charming in all the right ways. Each morning as I opened the windows I felt like a princess, all that was missing were hummingbirds and frollicking bunnies on the lawn. The hotel has a restaurant with good food, and continental breakfast was included. There is plenty of things to do and explore in the area, but the main draw has to be the thermal springs and spa. It takes approximately fourteen years for this mineral rich water to trickle down through the Alps until it finally reaches the hot springs. Relaxing in this water does not only feel good, it is reportedly also good for you. Take a lift up the 2km high mountain and watch the wildlife below you. Go skiing, snowboarding, langlaufing or snowangel making. Take a stroll through the pictoresque village of Bad Ragaz. Test your luck at the casino. Take a day trip to the breathtaking gorge nearby.. This little town has it all and then some. And did I mention you get to stay in a castle?! It is important to note that when you visit Germany, Switzerland, Austria, well - pretty much the whole region hotels and restaurants will be different than you are used to. They are not your Marriott or Hilton resort that gets redecorated every year or two and the style of decorating will be relevant to the country the establishment is placed in. Take a look at the website if you are interested in booking, just so that you are informed of your options when staying here. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone that might be interested in visiting the region, we have had a great time staying here!
