Hotel Hirschen Plaffeien0

Awesome location, as it is it is less than 20 min to the ski resort Schwarzsee and or Fribourg city. The hotel is also cheaper than at other places at ski resort Schwarzsee. On the ground floor there is one large caffé/bar, which is quite lively as it seemed to be the only one in town.

The rooms don't have good sound insulation, and in front of the the hotel there is a church with a very loud bell that can wake you up early in the morning, or during a possible afternoon nap. The staff mostly spoke german, and no english, but were always very friendly and communicative through hand gestures.

From the picture on Booking.com, the hotel looked a bit run down but the reality is that it is a recently-renovated place with a 50’s - 70‘s music theme and adorned by really nice posters of musical events. The main bar/dining area is beautifully done and they serve a variety of craft beers, even including an Irish IPA!! Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfast very good indeed. I do a lot of 2 - 3 day backpacking trips in Switzerland and this is the best hotel I have stayed in so far!

Nothing at all!

The location was lovely. The restaurant was in a bright and modern decor with paintings and drawings of 'Hirsche'. The hotel is located opposite the church with its beautiful sounding bells. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. The room was spacious and decorated in a wood cabin style. The dinner we had was excellent, albeit not cheap. Food in Switzerland is expensive, so not the fault of the hotel. The breakfast was superb, offering a huge selection of artisan bread, croissants, jams, meat, local cheeses, and lots more. The lady serving our breakfast even wrapped up some of the local cheeses we had not eaten to take with us. Certainly worth a visit. Thanks very much again and keep up the excellent work.

Maybe the room doors could have some silent closers or silencing strips, to stop some of them from banging when people close them.

This was my second stay within 3 months, this time a bicycle tour. This hotel has a wonderful ambience with posters and memorabilia based on pop & rock history from the 50‘s thru 80‘s. Very friendly and helpful staff - excellent retaurant and a collection of interesting beers. The breakfast was impeccable! Very good value for money. They also provided a lock-up garage for storing bicycles overnight.

Breakfast was excellent. Server was so friendly and always smiling. She kept coming back asking us if we needed any more food and coffee. Enjoyed my stay.

The church bell keeps ringingn every so often. I guess it is normal.

Excellent choice and quality of food - breakfast and for dinner. Great host and staff. Convenient location. Will definitely stay there again.

Staff, particularly the manageress, was very attentive and provided an excellent breakfast.

Friday night drinkers hanging around and making noise until 2am. Not Swiss!

Awesome rural location to hike the Fribourg Alps! Our basic room is all you need after a long day hiking 😊.

The shared bathroom is shared with too many rooms - while we were there not many rooms were occupied, but I can imagine there will be a line to use the bathroom in the morning…

-nice hotel in a remote small town - Swiss-style breakfest - next to church - clean, spatious rooms in wood

- might get noisy as located on a street

The staff is very friendly! A very nice restaurant.
