Really nice place, only if there was an elevator it would really make it a better experience especially if someone is traveling with a lot of luggage.

Nice hotel let down poor house-keeping
The hotel its self is very nice with a great location but was let down by their reservation system and poor house-keeping. The hotel contacted me a few days before my stay and said my room was not available for the first night so my wife and I would have to stay at a different hotel for one night but not to worry as it would to the same standard as the one had booked overlooking the lake. When I arrived, the only room available was a very small back room. It was disappointing to wake up on our first morning in Switzerland with no lake view, just a view of the main road! I had to ask Hotel Hirschen for a taxi to get to their hotel which I had to pay 60 CHF ($70), this was later refunded after two or three times of asking. Breakfast was lovely and the restaurant staff very pleasant and helpful. However, the house-keeping /cleaning was poor. Our room wasn't vacuumed for six days, there were cob-webs above the bed, the bottom sheet had marks on but wasn’t changed, the shower didn't drain (reported to reception) and there was food left down the side of a chair. Also it was hit and miss whether they replaced the used coffee cups, refills for the coffee machine, bottled water etc. I wouldn't bother booking a suite as these are in the roof (no elevator) and the double rooms on the first and second floors have bigger windows with better views. The hotel reception agreed with me over my concerns, they were apologetic but were reluctant to offer any solutions.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel was in a great area on the lake. However it was very understaffed. The 3 people that were working the evening did their best in the very hot conditions. The meal was overpriced for what we ordered. The restaurant and hotel rooms have no A/C. If the hotel isn't willing to pay for A/C, they should at least have fans in the rooms when it's 90° . In the morning there was only 1 employee cooking breakfast, making coffee, serving tables and checking patrons out. This hotel is destined to fail unless the hotel ownership steps up.

Charming magical Hirschen am See
Excellent stay, charming quaint village on Lake Zurich, fantastic meal at the restaurant, the staff were all lovely. The breakfasts are delicious, especially the yogurt. We swam in the lake and went into Zurich daily via train, I can't wait to return.

Good views of Lake Zurich
Nice hotel with great views ( if you get sea view room) of the lake. The rooms facing the road will be noisy and hence when warm, will be a challenge as there is no a/c.Unfortunately the restaurant is closed Mon/Tus. - as are a lot of others in the area!! So beware arriving on these days. Breakfast was good. Drinks on the terrace is possible until 9:00pm - too early to enjoy sunset.
