    We did not know breakfast was available at an additional cost. The room and shower were quite small.

    Excellent location near the Cathedral and the famous library. Paid covered parking nearby.

    Excellent location, just steps away from the old town center and the abbey. Also the reception is very friendly and attentive. The breakfast is nice and healthy. I really enjoy the experience.

    There are 2 buildings so we checked into one and our rooms are in the other. Also, we were there during a 3-day street festival and Saturday night there were performances until midnight outside our window.

    It is located in the center of the Abbey district, within the pedestrian zone. The room was a nice size, with comfortable appointments.

    Sound insulation between rooms is non existant. Room size perfect for one but small for two adults. furniture etc quite old. Needs refreshing. For that reason price was a little high.

    Very clean, excellent location, very useful to have secure lockers to store bags while exploring.

    Kindly make note of the reception hours. The rooms are also a little bit on the small side but overall comfortable. Please note no kettle, no coffee, no small refrigerator, and no safe in the standard double room.

    Unbeatable location in St. Gallen :) Staff were extraordinarily friendly and helpful! Elevator access from first floor up.

    Limited and unclear information from the personal.

    Location, atmosphere, half timbered medieval building. We stayed in the dependance, which is far much nicer (furniture and level of renovation) than the main building of the hotel. The hotel offers check-in at 4:00pm and check-out at 12:00pm. Offers a discount in Einstein parking (25CHF) around this time.

    Worker was replacing wallpaper in hallway at 7-8 am and the scraping sound which I thought was from a snow shoveler outside was too loud.

    The room was spacious and with a pleasant view. Bed was comfortable. Location couldn’t be better as it is a stone’s throw from the Cathedral and heart of old St Gallen

    Lounge was uncomfortable and only big enough for 4 people when the apartment sleeps up to 6 people. Pls buy a new lounge!

    Apartment Dependence location was excellent, right in the heart of the old town around the corner from the Abbey. Very spacious apartment: 3 bedrooms plus an extra bed in a small sleeping area meant we all had our own space. Big modern bathroom, great water pressure, kitchen well equipped. Secure and safe with direct lift access using a key. Beds were very comfortable.

    No lift up to the reception desk or good signage telling you where reception actually was , in the main building.

    The room was very clean and in a great position in the old town. Everything was totally renovated even though the building was from the 16th century. One of my favourite hotel rooms ever!

    I was pleasantly surprised from this property as I travelled for a conference. The property is ideally located between the Abbey and the Einstein conference centre , both just a minute walking. The hotel is in typical traditional style, with wooden roofs and well equipped kitchens at every level. Breakfast was good and staff was very helpful.

    The only things that could have been better were the breakfast buffet and a lot of street noise at night for the room that faced the street. The breakfast buffet was pricey which would have been ok if it had better options. It was a true dissappointment.

    Lovely small hotel in perfect location. We had two of the larger rooms and they were particularly nice. Very friendly staff as well.
