Spent a week there with my family, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates quiet time. Rooms are beautiful and clean. Staff is super polite, breakfast was something we really looked forward every morning. Children are allowed in spa areas only in the morning, but as the weather wasn’t very nice, girls from spa would always help us around and let me with my two girls in when nobody was around. They were all lovely, and my daughters especially loved Olivia. Restaurants were nice and staff was very polite. Our favorite restaurant was Cacoon. Thai restaurant looked beautiful, with polite staff, but food was a bit disappointing because it was too plain and didn’t taste like Thai cuisine. We had a dinner there with our 12 friends and we all had same impression. Maybe the chief wanted to make some compromise with food to taste more European or something, but we went there because we love Thai food. So, my suggestion is for that restaurant to stick with authentic thai food and their essential ingredients like lemongrass, lime, ginger, garlic, chili, coriander and nam pla… Otherwise, we have no objection and are looking forward to stay in this hotel this autumn

We gathered our whole family together for a little celebration and went to the Sonne Seehotel in Eich on the Sempachersee. March is not the best time of year to make the best of the surroundings or the lake, but we all enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. Not least due to this hotel which turned out to be a perfect venue for a family get together. The rooms are sufficiently spacious with all the modern amenities and a very comfortable bed. Make sure to book a lake view room which affords a lovely view of Lake Sempach, even on a somewhat grey March weekend. We were catered to most attentively throughout our stay. In the lively restaurant, the staff is evidently accustomed to families with young children. A complete menu for just about every taste is provided and the food is excellent. If you are interested is trying local dishes, try the Balchenfilets, a wonderfully tasty fish from the lake. The wine list is surprisingly extensive, including many Swiss, Italian, French and Spanish wines, without being too high end. Again, if you are into trying local wines, as we are, select the Pinot Gris from the Brunner winery in Eichberg just close by. The surprisingly extensive and delicious breakfast buffet should also get a mention. So, in all, we spent a wonderful weekend in the Sonne Seehotel as a whole family, but I could also recommend going there as a couple. Finally, I must give a round of applause to the most attentive and friendly staff in this hotel. My wife and I have stayed in many hotels around the world, but rarely have I encountered such a consistently helpful and friendly staff.

Остановиться на 1 ночь нормально, удобное местоположение. В целом скромный, простой, без особого комфорта отель

We arrived on the 20th of June - a family member also traveling with us booked this for us. The „not so friendly Lady on the reception did. her job - but nothing more than that - no smile no friendly word - she did nothing more than register and hand out the keys - like a robot. We had a room on the 2nd floor - while 30 degree Celsius outside, the hallway in the second floor probably had 35 in the room, I would guess, we had at least around 32 degree. Right away my wife went and organized a radiator (the „robot“ said that these should have been in the rooms already… no they weren‘t. When it cools down at 9:30 we tried to open the window - a sticker said: be careful…children… might be opened completely - no, they‘re not - went down again to the reception - nobody there - „robot“ probably went for inspection. „But when you call 930 we are right there for you!“ Did that right away - nobody picked up the phone - until the occupied tone appeared. Another try from the room‘s phone - same result, another try 5 minutes later same result. We had a though to sleep in the A/C Car but you can’t even use the room for charging your digital equipment - when you leave with the key, power is cut. When you’re leave without the key, no service desk available to let you back in after 9:00pm. We also payed a visit to the nearby restaurant. Not recommended to eat there - they open at 6:00am and when you go there at 8:00pm the salad bar seems to be there since 6:00am - quite some flies around - the other food presented wasn’t worth it - seem to be the “rest from today” menu. The coop super market is good, the playgrounds in the surroundings where pretty entertaining for the kids. Oh, almost forgot: when checking in, you get a 10% off voucher for Burger King in the neighbourhood! Wi-Fi is free at an acceptable transfer rate. Holiday Express: Thanks but NO thanks!
