Nice place. A bit pricy. Parking only in park garage nearby. Make sure front desk gives you good direction. Garage hard to find otherwise. Contrary to Expedia listing, parking is 20 Swiss francs.

Loved walking around and shopping in charming, old Swiss Appenzell as well as the variety of restaurants. Our room was comfortable and the owner and employees’ attention to details made it special, like a terrarium in the bathroom, good breakfast included, limited parking in their lot, and a large selection of tv channels.

Nice staff! They accomodated our late (after 8 pm) arrival (traffic) and arranged a reservation for an excellent dinner at their nearby sister hotel, Romantik Hotel Säntis (last food order 9:00 pm). Everything is very clean. Centrally located in the pedestrian zone. Public parking (Brauerei Platz small lot at intersection larger parking lot furthet down. Coins to pay for parking no credit card). Appenzell is a wonderful place!

Friendly staff made it great.

We needed help to make a health care decision. The receptionist went above & beyond to help us navigate another unfamiliar country’s health care system. Breakfast was good. The comfort of the bed was very good.

Everything was great except Saturday night you could hear the bar from our room and it didn’t quite down until 3:30am. Other than that it was great and the other nights were very quiet.

Such a cute hotel. Feels like a home and the rooms were spacious and clean. There is no air contitioning (like a lot of Europe) but there were two windows that provided a small breeze that made it ok for sleeping. Susan was the receptionist that checked me in and she was so kind. She even purchased a water that she just bought so it was cold! The hotel is close to restaurants and to the train station. The breakfast was PERFECT. There were enough options for anyone (i.e. hard boiled eggs, bread, yogurt, fruit, cereal, meats and cheese, coffee, juice, water, and more that I am forgetting).
