Hôtel Le National

The rooms are large and plain, dated in style - say 1960s or 70s, but clean and perfectly adequate for an overnight stay. Large bathroom, a little tired, with two deep metal washbowls; plenty of shower gel, a small tablet of soap, separate toilet. I am used to a firm bed so the one here felt a bit soft, as did the pillows, but I slept well. Minibar; the prices are quite high, e.g. 4francs for a small bottle of mineral water, but in line with the rest of Switzerland. Large and modern TV, free wifi. Excellent self-service breakfast with plenty of choice including boiled eggs, cheese and ham, squeeze-it-yourself fresh orange juice. The restaurant staff were also smiling and friendly and the food was very good - we had a mixed salad, pan-fried fish (daurade) and belle-hélène dessert. Handy for walking to the town centre. One of our party tried out the spa and had no complaints. My room overlooked a side road so there was some traffic during the night but nothing heavy.
