The stylish building was renovated in 2002 and includes 13 rooms. The spacious and well-lit rooms all have parquet floors. Room sizes range from double to four-bed rooms. We have 13 rooms in total (33 beds). 5 double rooms, 3 triple rooms, 2 quadruple rooms, 2 double rooms ensuite and 1 romantic attic room ensuite (maisonette on third level with steep stairway, no elevator). You will find a large nostalgic bathroom as well as 7 modern showers and toilets in our house (bath towel- and hand towel included).
Enthused about traveling and foreign cultures, I decided to make an exchange year in Upland, California where I graduated from St. Lucis High School in 1995. After studies at the "academy of Tourism" in Lucerne and a two years assignment for Lucerne Tourism Board, I decided to turn my knowledge into reality and opend in 2002 „The Bed + Breakfast“ in my grandmather’s house. My family and many of my friends helped to renovate the old house. In the function as host, little gastronome, gardener, entrepreneur, accountant, marketing expert, all-rounder I feel very confortable and I’m always looking forward to experience new, exciting moments with my guests. Meanwhile I’m married and we have three cute girls. But wihout my team I could not run the B+B in this personal way we do. Evelyne, Vera, Franziska and Connie are the most welcoming, helpful and nicest hosts I could find in the world!! Isabelle Meier-Holdener
The Bed + Breakfast is situated just a 15-minute walk from the train station and the old town. Our neighbourhood is very quiet. We are on the side of the train station. We call it the new town, here its the place to live, we have lots of cute bars and restaurants. It's much more local than in the old town.
