B&Bs in Winterthur

Julian Switzerland

Villa Jakobsbrunnen is an oasis of calm, grace and human warmth - yet in the middle of the town and close to all public transport. As the name suggests, this was a former patrician house in the middle of a park full of trees and sculptures. In the summer, the park must be a wonderful place to stroll around and enjoy the surroundings - or to sit and enjoy a book. Right after passing through the gates, Nicole, a perfect hostess, greeted me in front of the villa. She took the time to guide me through the B&B set-up that made my stay comfortable. As I was travelling for work and had a conference call, Nicole accommodated my request to arrive an hour earlier than foreseen. She made sure that I was well-settled in and walk me through the simple steps to connect to the secure wifi. My spacious room - far bigger and taller than in modern buildings - was up two flights of stairs and down a wide corridor. An individual bathroom with a shower is just outside the room. The kitchen offers a well-filled fridge and cupboard for breakfast. There are even kitchen utensils for those who want to make a warm meal. The villa is located five minutes off the main road and the main pedestrian town centre with its shops and restaurants. For those using public transport, the villa is convenient to get to either on foot (a15-minute walk) or on a bus (a three-minute ride).

I stayed in the garden room which was quite simple but lovely, with private access to a beautiful green garden with several places to sit. Though the B&B is in the middle of the old town, the room was blissfully quiet, even when the garden doors and windows were open. Room had a small fridge, kettle with tea/coffee, and plates and cutlery for 2, plus a small table and 2 chairs - so one could easily bring in food and be able to eat in comfort. The staff were super-friendly and helpful, and I'd definitely stay again if the opportunity arises. BTW, the cheesecake in their cafe is heavenly!

Privacy and hotel was very secure.

The entrance to the b & b is nestled between a wine bar and a little bistro but was very quiet, secure and I felt perfectly safe being there on my own. The room was much larger than expected, with a very comfortable bed and lovely outlook. Friendly host, good continental breakfast, and only a short walk to both town and forest. There are several eating options and supermarkets (one organic) close by but also a kitchen if you want to stay in.

The location was perfect for my needs and the room and it's patio was better than expected. The host went out of his way to help me feel welcome and looked out for extra needs that came up. Perfect for me.

The host was so nice and welcoming and the breakfast was an absolute treat. The home has a lot of charm and a nice outdoor space. It is also a convenient, short drive to and from the airport.
