The breakfast is super and of course the venue and scenery are brilliant.
At 6.30 h the bells of the church close by are started. When you sleep with the window opened, you are awake. Eardops won't help ;-)

I booked the suite so it is very comfortable and relaxing. a very special design of the room unlike other hotel and the particular view outside the balcony which I enjoyed very much.
the hotel staff is a bit "rude". I want some laundry on the easter day but one of the hotel staffs said impossbile due to holiday. however, when I checked with other staff again later and she said can do it in the hotel. I ordered some inroom breakfast one morning but they just gave me a pot of hot water but no tea. when I called them to report the case, she sounds not happy and not even a "sorry" or "apolos" when she brought back the tea.

The evening drinks at the bar with stunning river views. A personal touch was the warm chocolates and note we received. It enhanced our experience.

Des Balances has an atmosphere of family and luxury, quiet rooms, very service minded and friendly, professional personnel, wonderful views (river side), roof terrace (5th floor)
Breakfast service personnel in relation to other personnel ( a bit arrogant, not very responsive)

The location was magnificent. My room had a small balcony overlooking the river Reuss. The hotel is slap in the centre of the old city, beautifully designed with a very efficient and friendly team of staff. Will definitely stay again if I can afford it....
