Wonderful hotel in Appenzell Review of Adlerhotel…read morePending reviewvia mobile We have not left yet, but our experience after 1 1/2 days here has been wonderful. The room is spacious and comfortable. The hotel is centrally located. Matjaz (Matthias) has been incredibly helpful from the moment we entered the hotel looking for parking. He has helped us find two great walking trails, directed us to restaurants, bakeries and places to have drinks and has been extremely friendly. What a great person to have at the front desk- one of the nicest, friendliest, helpful people we have met in our 21 different visits to Europe! ( my wife just informed me he is the 7 th generation innkeeper). We will be recommending this hotel to our friends and son that live in Zurich.

The staff is wonderful and will help you with any questions you may have. We were lucky enough to see the cows walk by for their annual trek from their mountain pastures to their winter homes in the valley.

My first Swiss Fondue experience was an immersive, cheerful, cheese-fest with great service, food,…read moreand drinks in a uniquely Swiss atmosphere. It's $26 CHF (Swiss Francs for my US readers) per person, and they bring you a boiling vat of cheese and a bucket of bread. The menu is basically a listing of what kind of cheese you want, along with some sharables and desserts. I have a deeply held, long-standing love for cheese. But, this experience tested even my limits. The rule is, you don't drink anything cold with it as it will harden the cheese in your system. Seems like a bit of an urban legend. But, the alternative is brandy and wine, which they bring in great quantities if you ask for it. The brandy shot is included. Ah, the Swiss :) The cheeses were delicious and the bread soft. We dipped and swirled with long forks. My only other Fondue experience was Simply Fondue in Texas, where you actually cook meats in hot oil. This was not that. Cheese only. We also tried some onion soup, which was wonderful and not at all like "French Onion Soup" as we call it in the US. Not even sure if that's really French. For dessert we ordered some fruit and a strawberry sorbet, also outstanding. Our server was happy and fun, walking us through our new experience. We shared it with some local friends, making for a memorable night. Highly recommended if you want some great local food!

Warning: this is the only game in town when it comes to fondue, so they are extremely busy. Came in…read moreon a Monday around 6:00, and was told there was no way to fit us in that night, but we could make a reservation for later that week. We did, and reserved 6:00 PM that Thursday (everything later was taken). We came in on time to our reservation, but found our waitress to be a bit on the unfriendly side. Although 95% of the tables had fondue, she seemed very put out by working, and she was difficult to track down when we wanted to order more wine (this is not by American standards, and we weren't yelling in English. I lived in Germany for two years, speak good German, and am accustomed to European service). The restaurant was very cozy. If you're a table of two you are likely to share your table with another party of two, and it's just warm and homey on the inside. The food was very good- we ordered fondue for two and a salad to share, and found that more than adequate in terms of amount of food. The prices were reasonable, although the wine was more than in other restaurants in the area. I've had fondue before and preferred that experience, but if you find yourself in St. Gallen, craving fondue, then this is a fine choice.

After a quite tedious placement of orders she realized that four orders of pancakes could not be done as they had run out of pancakes...can happen should not! Their special softdrinks (2 of them) were also not available...starting to see a pattern? As my grandson got hungry 45 mins later...still no food... i asked if he could at least have a croissant...you guessed it: NO croissants left! So i asked for at least a piece of Zopf... i guess you can guess the response....The food (some of it ) came about an hour after ordering. MY dish was just plain forgotten, the sunny side eggs, two orders, came 30 mins after the hash browns, when my meal was delivered the pita bread was not, etc., etc, total chaos! I did ask for the duty manager and his main excuse was that another table had eaten all of the pancakes, croissants & Zopf...total incompetence in person with no regards for clients or how to manage/train staff. It's a beautiful restaurant a great location...but that's not enough...I'm done with that amount of bungling!
