Charming magical Hirschen am See

Excellent stay, charming quaint village on Lake Zurich, fantastic meal at the restaurant, the staff were all lovely. The breakfasts are delicious, especially the yogurt. We swam in the lake and went into Zurich daily via train, I can't wait to return.

Lovely stay

I stayed in a long stay room for three nights. I found the staff to be very welcoming and helpful. My room looked out over the lake and was great value for money. It was easy to get into Zurich by a short bus ride and train in less than 30 minutes.

Relaxing ….

Really nice place, only if there was an elevator it would really make it a better experience especially if someone is traveling with a lot of luggage.

Good review

Overall, an excellent location with helpful staff. Good choice of breakfast and on the lake front restaurant. Car parking is also available near the hotel. Only issue, no fan provided during hot weather, but good Nespresso in room.

Perfect place to relax at beautiful lake!

We had a very enjoyable stay at this lovely historic hotel which is clean, tastefully decorated, spacious and has wonderful seating indoor and out to view beautiful Lake Zurich from its restaurant. Being September it was very relaxed. We enjoyed seeing people still out on the dock and in the water swimming on a gorgeous sunny warm afternoon. Dinner at the hotel was delicious and the service was great excellent and friendly. Service at the front desk when we arrived was friendly and very helpful. Our room was spacious with large windows looking out at the view of water and mountains. It was very comfortable with a comfortable bed and seating area and large bathroom with tub shower combination. Breakfast was extra good! This was the perfect stop to end our European trip and get to the Zurich airport the next day. Wish we could have stayed longer. We didn’t think to check that the hotel didn’t have an elevator so we appreciated the help bringing up our bags. Parking was across the street and over a little in a private outdoor lot but no big deal once you saw how close it was.

Nice hotel let down poor house-keeping

The hotel its self is very nice with a great location but was let down by their reservation system and poor house-keeping. The hotel contacted me a few days before my stay and said my room was not available for the first night so my wife and I would have to stay at a different hotel for one night but not to worry as it would to the same standard as the one had booked overlooking the lake. When I arrived, the only room available was a very small back room. It was disappointing to wake up on our first morning in Switzerland with no lake view, just a view of the main road! I had to ask Hotel Hirschen for a taxi to get to their hotel which I had to pay 60 CHF ($70), this was later refunded after two or three times of asking. Breakfast was lovely and the restaurant staff very pleasant and helpful. However, the house-keeping /cleaning was poor. Our room wasn't vacuumed for six days, there were cob-webs above the bed, the bottom sheet had marks on but wasn’t changed, the shower didn't drain (reported to reception) and there was food left down the side of a chair. Also it was hit and miss whether they replaced the used coffee cups, refills for the coffee machine, bottled water etc. I wouldn't bother booking a suite as these are in the roof (no elevator) and the double rooms on the first and second floors have bigger windows with better views. The hotel reception agreed with me over my concerns, they were apologetic but were reluctant to offer any solutions.

I had a bad experience on the morning to see that they were not hot water to wash mayself. When I say that to the person ( he handles the breakfast ) he said that he couldn't do anything. he did not propose other solution, ( other functionnal room available, a gesture on the bill...) considering the price I paid,it is not reasonnable. except that, the lunch was quite good, and the 2 waters were very nice.Too bad...

Not 3-Star

The images reflect a rosier picture than reality. We booked for 4 nights but left after 3. Overall we were disappointed in this venue. The location is excellent for the view and reasonable access to Zurich, but it is an old hotel so there are limitations and the facilities and the service were subpar. On the plus side, the food was good in the restaurant and the service spotty, but on the whole the staff's attitude and demeanor ranged between indifference to ineptitude with an occasional rudeness. There was not just a little mold in the bathroom, a shower that dripped from a 6' height every 4 seconds for the entire time keeping us awake, a hot stuffy room and requests for remediation as well as additional pillows went ignored and we were just made to feel as if we were being too fussy. Great to visit for dinner with a view, but otherwise I wouldn't recommend this venue for anything more than an overnight stay driven by convenience.

One day business trip to Zurich

This was my first time with you and I must say that the service is excellent and the staff very friendly !: my key was ready in an envelope as promised (late check in), all the instructions were clear and correct and the breakfast and check out perfect. My only regret is that my room didn't have bathroom: this was very upsetting when I arrived, around midnight. I checked again in my booking and I didn't find that important information. Hopefully I managed to find the common bathroom across my room.

Moyen

Bel hôtel qui demande à être rénové. Vue lac un peu bruyante car juste au dessus du restaurant. Personnel agréable et accueillant. Ménage intermédiaire plutôt moyen, on nous remet des tasses propres sans remettre du café.. il est interdit de fumer dans la chambre sous peine de forte amende, le client de la chambre d'en face ne s'est pas gêné et nous en avons bien profité... Petit déjeuner succinct. Nous avons apprécié malgré tout notre séjour mais sommes bien conscients que nous avons payé le prix fort de la Suisse sans la qualité attendue pour nous français
