Aarauerhof - Self Check-in

Sauberkeit lässt zu wünschen übrig was Badezimmer anbelangt.

The Covid pandemic has been hard on the service industry and Hotel Aarauerhof has also suffered through it. A change of management and a more bare bones service since our last visit to this Hotel almost three years ago. We took a Junior Suite which was quite spacious and the bathroom also large. The room was however stripped of the conveniences that had once existed. No mini-refrigerator or coffee machine. The basement steam room and sauna which had previously existed were now closed. A bit worryingly there were no staff for large parts of the day and night – and staff seemed to appear only early morning and disappear by lunchtime. The two times we needed some assistance – one on checking in one afternoon, and once late at night - there were no staff at the hotel – which would have been a problem had it been an emergency. There is however a 24 hour number which can be called which is moderately useful. The staff were efficient and friendly. The breakfast was basic and limited but otherwise good. The room looked a bit worn (upholstery faded etc) but the linen was spotless. As the heating was still on (in late April) we needed to crack the window open a bit which made the room rather noisy. The bathroom door didn’t lock properly and the need for maintenance was apparent. The hotel was showing some age and needs some work. Overall the hotel is well priced and functional, but it wasn’t what it used to be some years ago which is a pity because I like it for its excellent location (right next to the Railway station and easy access to the town center).

Check in war super, ebenso sauberkeit des Zimmers war wirklich tatellos, jedoch lässt von 2 Uhr nachts bis 5 Uhr Nachts ist die Nachbardisko das Bett erzittern. Ebenso der Bass der Diskothek ist sehr laut. Selbst Hörschutz ist hier ziemlich erfolglos. Ebenso riecht es extrem nach Zigaretten. Das es überhaupt gesetzlich gelaubt ist ein Hotel direkt neben einer Diskothek zu haben?
