"This historic hotel is located in the heart of Appenzell and has a lovely restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating. It is a short walk from the train station, is clean and charming and rooms have comfortable beds and bedding. The included breakfast is plentiful and delicious with good coffee :) The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating - when we had to check out very early at the end of our stay, they packed us a delicious lunch to take with us on the train the night before we left since we would miss the morning breakfast. Travellers should note that there is no AC due to preservation rules for all hotels/historic buildings in Appenzell - when we came there was a heat wave so it was unusually hot, but we opened our windows at night and it cooled our room off enough so we could sleep. We highly recommend Gasthaus Hof!"
"5/5 ⭐️
We absolutely loved the city of Appenzell and this sweet Swiss hotel! Hotel Säntis has so much charm and was one of our favorite stays during our 12-day trip through Switzerland.
The room was a really good size, although the bathroom was a little small. Nothing unbearable, though, and overall the room was very comfortable.
The location is perfect—right in the middle of town, making it incredibly easy to walk around and explore Appenzell. The restaurant was also great for dinner, but the breakfast buffet was incredible! Everything was very fresh, and the setup was excellent.
And the staff deserves a special shoutout. They were incredibly kind and welcoming—probably the nicest staff we encountered during our entire 12 days in Switzerland!
We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely stay at Hotel Säntis again when we return to Appenzell. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a charming Swiss hotel in the heart of town!"
"This hotel is in an old building, but has been renovated. Everything was comfortable and well decorated. The staff was friendly and helpful and spoke English. We were upgraded to a much larger room, (the size of an apartment) which was nice. The location is ideal - A short walk to the train station. We had some business in the Buchs government building, which was also a short walk. We were also able to wash a load of clothes on site. The only small negative was our floor could have a little cleaner and the bed was just a bit on the firm side. We prefer a softer mattress, although that is a personal preference. Overall, it was a lovely place to stay."
"Very friendly staff when we checked in late at the restaurant. Room was very clean and had a big, beautiful wall of glass in front of the bed with a great view of the mountain."
