Nice stylish hotel with "the good old service and interrior design" matching the price at a perfect location! Unfortunately the beds are too soft to our bodies liking so I'll have check if they have a choice in that offering for a next stay.

I would have liked to have seen clearer information about the spa and fitness centre closing times. Unfortunately by the time I checked in everything was closed. This was the main reason I chose the Einstein over different hotels. However, the room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was good.

Beautiful city at less than 100km drive from Zurich airport! Clean, modern! Food and service in the bar was excellent!! Now for the negatives… No doorman greeting and assistance with luggage from the car at the entrance! Spa and fitness closes at 18:30 on Saturdays and Sundays!!! Spa and fitness located at 5 min walk through a long basement tunnel and required two elevators to reach with minimal signage!! Hotel restaurant is in another building across the street and requires coat in winter to reach! None of the negatives were highlighted at check in….

少し長めの休暇

少し長めの休暇で、急遽、最後の旅程なのでこちらでゆっくりすることにしました。修道院図書館、大聖堂には近く、旧市街のレストラン、カフェ、ちょっとしたショッピングをするには便利です。夜は静かです。ホテルから坂道を上がってちょっとしたハイキングがてら大きな公園にも行きましたがボーデン湖が見え素晴らしい景色です。 とにかく羽毛布団がふかふかで最高です。メイドインスイスのようで買って帰ろうかと思うくらいです。 夜遅く少し部屋が寒かったのでフロントにいうとすぐにコントロールしてくれました。朝も気遣ってくれました。 広めの部屋で清潔で、バスタブも大きいです。 スタッフがとても親切です。

Wie immer war unser Aufenthalt im Hotel Einstein phantastisch. Wenn wir in St. Gallen sind, logieren wir immer im Hotel Einstein! Die Lage ist ruhig aber doch Central. Das Personal ist immer sehr kompetent und freundlich. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und schön! Das Zimmer 328 bei diesem Aufenthalt hat uns sehr gefallen, da es heller ist als andere und mit Aussicht. Leider war der Pool dieses Mal nicht nutzbar, was sehr schade war. Das Fitnesscenter ist top. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!
