Top Rapperswil Hotel Reviews

Placid Hotel Design & Lifestyle Zurich

8/10 Good

"I already reviewed this hotel before and in it, I stated the pros and cons. I loved the modern style and decor. The rooms we had were extremely small but efficient. It is extremely far from the main attractions, but transportation is not an issue. Great breakfast and a wonderful staff. Some of the rooms need a bit of attention... Overall a pleasant stay."
