We stayed in a superior room, which looked brand new. It was of adequate size, airy and modern, without being over-stylish. High ceilings, high quality wooden furniture and a marble bathroom were absolutely first class. The view over the rooftops was lovely (ask for a room on one of the top floors!). I haven't seen the standart rooms, but I guess that these are older and that it's worth to spend the extra for a superior room. Breakfast room under the roof is charming, breakfast itself about what you can expect from a 4star andnothing extraordinary. In autumn they will open a new spa/fitness zone and conference centre, which will even improve the hotel.
The only thing we didn't like were the churchbells of the nearby cathedral. They rang for about 10 min. without interruption at 6 am - no way to stay asleep! But I cannot fault the hotel for this...

Situated in one of the most charming swiss town, the Einstein has something old fashion, pleasant and charming.
Situated along the old town, within five minutes walking distance from the main train station, the hotels offers pleasant old fashion rooms with a good comfort. The single room is well furnished except the lack of a safe box which is one of the basis furniture for a for stars hotel.
The bathroom, very clean, offers everything you hopes. The breakfeast room under the roof, is pleasant and the quality of the breakfast is very good with a good variety of dishes.
The staff is polite and sympathetic.
A good value for the price.

This Hotel sits at the top of the old town of St Gallen. Its a luxury hotel without losing its old world atmosphere and friendly feel. The staff a friendly and helpful, and have a sweet sense of humour. More than just polite and efficient. The rooms are spacious, and we had a gorgeous view over the street that was very convenient for viewing the Soap Box Derby, and for attending the street party that followed.
Just trot down the hill and you have an plentiful choice of restaurants and shops. For sights you can't beat the village and the superb Abbey the like of which I have seen nowhere else in Europe (or anywhere). Check out the medieval library for another awe inspiring experience.
Or walk up the hill to see the waterfall then follow it down to take a dip in the mineral baths. I love this town so much I want to move here. Seriously.

Stayed here for one night while on a business trip. Everything was up to the standard you would expect in a four star hotel, efficient staff, comfortable room, good food, etc. Perfect place to stay if you are looking for a peaceful and comfortable night.
