Hotel Wysses Rössli

Beautiful hotel, but quite noisy Beautiful hotel, and delicious breakfast. The only issue I had is that there was a film festival happening right outside my window. The event was extremely loud and went on after midnight. Since the room didn't have AC, it was hard to keep the windows closed so that meant we couldn't go to sleep until very late, and were constantly being awake by the noise outside.

From the moment we arrived, my wife and I were treated with the utmost hospitality by the staff. They took care with every detail, and made our stay in Schwyz even more enjoyable thanks to their recommendations and thoughtfulness.

Room was 'basic' and very noisy when windows open - quiet room requested. No fan or air-conditioning for use in hot weather. Hotel corridors and room unwelcoming - decoration and TV outdated. No coffee/tea in room nor served in hotel - bar and restaurant closed. No lounge or bar. Reception lights turned off at 8.30pm(ish). Cooked breakfast poor although buffet good. The Wysses Rossli provides a bed and breakfast not a hotel and restaurant. It was by far the worst value for money hotel we stayed at in our recent trip around the Lucerne region.

The nicest people running this charming historic hotel. Excellent breakfast, very clean, beautiful flowers. Sean was most understanding and generous to deal with our late arrival due to cancelled flight.We shall come back next year to hike in Stoos - was cloudy and windy, the gondola could not work so we shall attempt again. Funicular spectacular.

It was convenient location but unfortunately we were not told that we could park at the hotel for a charge - instead we were send 10 minutes walk to a public car park and had to carry our luggage. Also note that on a days when there is a market you would be woken up very early. The staff should be trained to provide this info to customers while checking in.

We were at the lovely Wysses Rössli for three nights in late September, and are only now catching up on writing reviews for the last few months. Although much time has elapsed since our stay, we remember the Wysses Rössli very well because the staff were all exceptional. Upon arriving on 24th September, we were greeted most kindly by the young gentleman at reception, but we had a favour to ask of him. We were carrying approximately twelve kilogrammes of alp cheese purchased from various farmers in a remote district of Uri accessible only on foot. We asked the young gentleman holding the fort at the Wysses Rössli whether our room might contain a fridge large enough within which to keep some cheese, which was destined for friends and relations in Bern. He responded that he would bring us a fridge specially for our cheese, but he was not yet aware quite how much cheese was concealed within our luggage! He arrived at our room with the fridge in his arms, but we opened our bags to reveal that the fridge was too small for our haul. He told us that the solution would be to keep our cheese in a fridge in the hotel kitchen for the duration of our three-night stay. We felt relieved and thankful, but expressed concern that such a large stash of cheese would inconvenience the kitchen staff. The gentleman responded, "The fridges in our kitchen are actually enormous! It will be easy to find space." So he carried away our cheese in two bags, all twelve kilos of it. How wonderfully helpful! All of the staff we encountered at the Wysses Rössli were magnificent, but we felt sad that when we collected our cheese and checked out, it was the young gentleman's morning off, so we were unable to thank him once again for the marvellous check-in experience. The Wysses Rössli is a seventeenth-century hotel with a fascinating history and situated in the heart of the old town. From our room we enjoyed lovely views over pretty rooftops and to the foothills and mountains beyond. After our first breakfast, we returned to our room to hear the lowing and bells of cattle being brought into town. We enquired of our friend the young gentleman at reception, and he advised us to head to the Feldli on Rickenbachstrasse to observe the cattle show. We thus followed the farmers and cattle to the Feldli, where we found perhaps as many as two hundred cows, heffers and bulls competing for the prizes. Continuing along the Rickenbachstrasse, we reached the cable car up to the foot of the mighty Mythen mountain, a natural wonder of Kanton Schwyz. We loved Stadt Schwyz and its environs, and when we return, we will be sure to book the Wysses Rössli again.
