Located directly at Appenzell’s historical town square, the "Landsgemeindeplatz", the Romantik Hotel Säntis, with its grand façade, offers a magnificent view of the surrounding mountains.

My third stay here in a year across seasons and each time in a different room. consistent quality in the product despite the dated feel of the property. The staff have always been a key feature of this property. Friendly and make you willing to come back. I enjoyed the restaurant although relative to some properties around, the prices were on the rich side. Interesting Autumn menu.

Located in Appenzell, 13 miles from Olma Messen St. Gallen, Hotel Kaubad provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

Honest review of a SOLO traveler without a car. The hotel is being renovated and they’re doing a wonderful job. The room was clean, the interior feels homely and the breakfast buffet has a good variety, but I LOVED the made-to-order bacon and eggs. What really makes this hotel shine though are the people who run it. When I booked this property, I made the mistake of not checking its location--you can’t reach it by bus or train. There is a local shuttle service that can take you to and from, however, their app is mediocre and you need to plan your rides ahead of time as it can take some time before a driver becomes available. Fortunately, I caught my error in time and reached out to the hotel for guidance. Jannine, from the hotel, scheduled for someone to pick me up at the trains station to take me to the hotel. I was extremely grateful for that service. Once I got to the hotel, I downloaded the app and got lucky with minimal wait times to go into town and to the gondolas around the area. Every interaction I had with the people at Hotel Kaubad was genuine and kind. Polina’s attention to detail and caring demeanor did not go unnoticed, and I am grateful for all of the effort you put into ensuring my comfort and wellbeing. Dibraun’s hospitality goes above and beyond. If you are traveling to Appenzell without a car, I recommend reaching out to Hotel Kaubad through email or Whatsapp. Their location also has great hikes and mountain huts you can dine at. I promise you, staying at Kaubad is worth it.

Located in Appenzell’s historic Landsgemeinde Square, Cafe-Hotel Appenzell offers an elegant restaurant with terrace that serves home-baked cakes and regional specialties.

The hotel staff were very welcoming. The breakfast was excellent with cheeses, meats, yogurts, Muesli, breads, jams, and croissants. The breakfast room had old-world charm. Staff served us coffee and tea, made to order. Had a chance to speak with other guests at breakfast.

Located next to the car-free center of Appenzell, Adler Hotel is set in a beautiful traditional Appenzell-style building.

Everything about this hotel is great, but the biggest contributing factor to our satisfaction is with the level of service and care that we received from the General Manager overseeing his family's property. He (Mathias) is one of the finest hospitality professionals I've met and was unbelievably thoughtful and inclusive with me and my kids. The location for Appenzell is perfect...no noise, easy to walk everywhere, and a beautiful facility from the basement to the top floor.

    The scenic and cultural and historical attractions inn this very tourist-friendly area of Switzerland were very much to my liking. These include the accommodations, the local people, the local foods, the cafes and restaurants, the museums, the agricultural countryside, the train and public car transportion systems and the mountain trails and cable cars.

    It was the perfect location with beautiful views in every direction. It was the perfect place to end our last 2 days in Switzerland. Staff was very friendly and personable. The morning we left, we needed to leave before the regular breakfast time, but the chef got up early to prepare a very nice breakfast. The room was large, well decorated, had a huge bathroom, and our own personal balcony! Would highly recomend this place as by far, the best of the 9 places we stayed during our two weeks in Switzerland!!

    Pleasant place to visit and probably also to live in. Nice historical town center, wonderful views on surrounding mountains. I did not have time to make hiking trip unfortunately. Plenty of restaurants, we choose the restaurant of Hotel Santis and were satisfied.

    Avoid any hotel in or near the centre: the church bells ring loudly every 15 minutes right through the night, so it's impossible to sleep well! The shops really cater for tourists, so although there are interesting products it's extremely pricey. The best is the hiking around Appenzell - lovely scenery.

    Beautiful, well preserved, tiny village with plenty of handicraft shops and superb pastry typical for the region. Hospitality is great and it is all so spotless clean. Only disadvantage; Switzerland is far too expensive!
