What our guests say about the Hotel Scherer
"This is an excellent hotel within walking distance of the station. It is a classic, family-run hotel with friendly service. My room was comfortable, and I liked the bright lighting, especially in the spotless bathroom. And what a treat to have a radio in the bathroom and listen to classical music whilst showering. The breakfast buffet was superb and was served in a room full of mirrors that felt like a palace. And the service was outstanding."
