Marina Lachen

Je recommande vivement cet établissement ! Personnel accueillant, souriant et très professionnel ! Chambre avec vue sur le lac magnifique ! Literie confortable et d une propreté impeccable. Souper et petit déjeuner succulents. Bravo !

Our party of two stayed at Al Porto for a total of five nights. As soon as we saw the hotel and the interior, we fell in love with it. Especially since the Jr. Suite we had (#3) came with a balcony that overlooked the lake. We later found out that it was a deluxe version since we had to move to another junior suite (located a floor up, I think it was #7) after the first two nights (we liked Al Porto so much we decided to stay here longer and drove to places instead of the originally planned stay-in-the-city-we-visit mode operandi). The J.S. we had for nights 3-5 faced the town, so not much view to be desired and there was no balcony. It also only had one bathroom/toilet, as opposed to room #3's having a guest toilet next to the entrance, and a separate shower next to the bed (better set up for us since one of us can take a shower while the other brushed teeth). We were disappointed that we could not stay in room #3 longer but the hotel was fully booked so there was nothing we could do about it. The decor is very W-esque. Very modern and simple yet not too minimalist. Bathrooms have nice showers with great water pressure (but no tub, unless you book a suite I believe). The only con is you need a car to get to Lachen, otherwise it is very convenient to get to Zurich (20min drive). Parking is free and ample, the front desk will give you a card to be displayed so you don't have to pay for parking at the parking machine. Occasionally there were "suspicious smells" of animal feces from when the wind blew the wrong way, but that is to be expected in Switzerland outside of major cities. Many residents walked along the lake and passed by the front of the hotel. I enjoyed watching them from the balcony -- it was all very leisurely, as it should be in Switzerland. By the way the Lachen town church is quite impressive, the twin dorms can be seen from the hotel and is very close by.

Als wir das "Romantik-Spezial" gebucht hatten, haben wir nicht viel erwartet. Jedoch war das Hotel wirklich super, die Aussicht vom kleinen Balkon aus auf den See war einfach unglaublich. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und die Zimmer waren sauber. Das Essen im The Steakhouse war der Hammer! Da ich einige Jahre in Uruguay gelebt habe, weiss ich, was gutes Fleisch ist, und an dem Abendessen war wirklich nichts auszusetzten! Im Gesamten hatten wir einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in Marina Lachen und können dieses Hotel sowie Restaurant nur herzlich weiterempfehlen!
