"Don't forget to grab the free Zug pass from the reception (mostly likely the reception staff will give you the pass before you even ask)."

“Hotel Zugertor strikes me as a particularly solid choice in Zug, balancing a family-run atmosphere with modern comforts. Its location provides walkable access to both the train station and the old town, with the added appeal of an on-site restaurant known for its local dishes and homemade pasta. The inclusion of a 9-pin bowling alley adds a distinctive touch, setting it apart from more conventional hotels.”
