Guest Ratings & Reviews
The Swissotel is like a labyrinth with up-to-date facilities and a wonderful in-room restaurant. However, the room should have been non-smoking but smelled heavily of smoke. The service was efficient but lacked warmth. The location is fantastic for exploring Old Town, centrally located with easy access to everything. The dining experience was excellent despite some organizational issues. Overall, a mixed experience with great facilities and some room for improvement.
