“Staying in a converted castle and former prison is certainly a unique experience, one made even better by modern, stylish rooms, especially comfortable beds, and a friendly staff. The location offers scenic views of Lake Thun and the Alps, and its family-friendly amenities make it a suitable choice for groups looking for spacious accommodations. In my opinion, this property stands out for its blend of historical ambiance and contemporary comfort.”
