Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Riessersee Hotel enjoys a superb location near a lake, offering stunning mountain views, which many guests appreciate from their balconies. The spacious rooms, some being family suites with separate living areas or split-level layouts, are generally considered comfortable; however, some guests have noted that the hotel's appearance is showing its age. The breakfast and dinner buffets provide a wide variety of options, including vegetarian choices, with easy access to walking and hiking trails, as well as free giant chess and curling, making the hotel a good value for families.

cosy atmosphere delicious breakfast wonderful location missing air conditioning limited tv channels weak wifi
The common area was great. it had a fireplace, a library, and games, which i really enjoyed, it was very cosy! the breakfast was delicious with a lot of variety. Everything seemed fresh. the location is wonderful, easy access to hiking trails and lovely views.
My room did not have air conditioning, so it got a little warm during the day, it would be nice to have that option. the tv had limited channels, mostly in german, so that was a bit of a letdown. the wifi signal in the gym was weak. I couldn't connect to stream music during my workout.
