This is my review from a stay July, 2009. I enjoyed my visit so much that I am adding it here…read more We stayed at some of the best hotels in Switzerland during our 3 weeks travel here, but this was the best. The whole hotel staff led by Daniel Zeigler know you by name and room almost immediately after you arrive. The Hotel is located on the smallest of three lakes in the area with views from many rooms. My parents room was very large and faced the lake. My room was large and faced the trees. Each room had a large deck and each is beautifully decorated in a unique style. The breakfast buffet was great with plenty of fresh fruit, breads, yogurts, muesli, smoked salmon, meats, cheeses, eggs. Everything is delicious. There are a number of beautiful dining rooms and dining terraces at the hotel and meals are served at different dining locations depending on the meal and day of the week. We had dinner and lunch here a number of days and all meals were excellent. This hotel is really a resort... you can sit outside on chaise lounges, sun bathe and just watch the lake and surrounding countryside or you can go swimming in the clear lake. The hotel has Kayaks at no charge that you can use on the lake. There are also bikes and helmets available free to the guests. I took a number of bike trips. The first day I took a ride around the lake. Since this lake is not that large, the average rider or family can ride around the lake. ( If you can't make it around the lake, there are boats at various places that will bring you back.) The roads and bike paths around the lake are mostly flat and the total distance around I think was about 12 miles. The second day I took a trip up Mount Vully on the other side of the lake past vineyards and farms. There is an historic fort on the top and from there you get a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside and the lakes. On the third day I took a ride on the Mittlelland bike path to Estavayer-le-lac, another historic town like Murten about 20 miles away. This town is less commercial than Murten and has some great architecture. The staff is so attentive without being at all overbearing. My mom had injured her foot (elsewhere). The hotel suggested a local doctor and drove her there where she got prompt excellent care. The hotel also has a free DVD library, book library and free internet for guests to use.

Great hotel at the lake of Morat - the rooms are from the 70ies but nicely renovated…read more Service is great, the restaurant and the beach house are nice too and it is next to a windsurfing and wing foiling business. The place is actually a hot spot for this kind of sports - if the wind is blowing of course. Will come surely back.

From the owner: L'hôtel de L'Ours est un hôtel 3 étoiles de charme situé à Sugiez en Suisse, un village au pieds…read moredes vignes du Vully. Hôtel proche du Lac Morat | 8 chambres à partir de 135 CHF | Salles de Banquets et séminaires.

What a fun place to go in a beautiful town. We had a group function here and it could've easily…read more"gone off the rails" but the service was impeccable and very friendly. I had the macaroni with applesauce and it was perfectly seasoned. The noodles *might have been slightly overcooked but, considering all the meals that came at one, it was a dang good job. We had a chocolate dessert and it was delicious!! Makes me sad that we choose to stay at a different hotel vice staying here! Next time!
