Family hotels and homes in Walkringen

Exceptional friendly staff. Check in was also possible late in the night. Good breakfast.

The hostess, Marianne is a lovely lady who loves what she does. She takes very good care of the property and the customers. Her handmade bread is definitely a star. Also the whole scenery of a countryside village is a winner.

The location and the fact that I would have a parking space were the deciding factors in choosing this room. However, it was our host, Monika, who truly made us feel at home. The room itself, with a private bathroom, was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated, offering every amenity one could need. A delightful breakfast was waiting for us outside our door at the morning. Monika is incredibly friendly and genuinely cares for her guests. If we're ever in the area again, we will definitely return!

Very nice personell, helpful with tips. Nice seating area outside, and I was able to have a cup of tea before the cafe closed. You can tell that ambiance is very important to the owners. No corporate chill here. Bus stop directly outside.

We've spent a week in Eggelried with a family of four (kids 4 and 7). The place is exceptional for many reasons: (1) Barbara and her family are wonderful hosts. We were so well taken care of (thank you, Barbara!) and, in the same time, we had all the privacy we needed. The communication (in EN and FR) was very efficient before, during and after our stay. (2) The apartment is spacious, clean, very practical, exceptionally well equipped (like home), with big cozy living room (toys!) and wonderful views from the windows all-around. There are anti-insects solutions (incl. nets on windows), so you are not bothered by flies. (3) The farm is beautiful. The garden offers a lot of playing opportunities for kids. The hot tub with the mountain/stars views was very relaxing. The big terrace offers you a possibility to eat outside. The variety of animals and the possibility for kids to engage in the farm work and feeding the animals was great - they've enjoyed it so much! Dogs usually have made my kids anxious, and it was also a case during the first days of our stay, but now, when I ask them what they've liked most during the holiday, the answer is: Simba and Blake! (4) The location is great. With detailed instructions given by the host, we have found the farm easily (despite darkness and fog). There was a covered parking place ready for us - very close to the entrance to the apartment, so it was logistically easy with luggage and kids. You can start you walking route from your front door - no need to get anywhere by car. The views around are stunning. There is a restaurant close to the farm (10 min walk). (5) The possibility to buy (for a very reasonable price) delicious fresh or homemade milk/bread/cheese/jams/butter...... was a highlight on top of everything above. It made our stay easy and care-free. We've got everything we needed and a lot of unexpected surprises too!

This was probably our best stay in Switzerland. Although the hotel looks fairly old on the outside, the rooms are renovated and stylishly furnished. You’d think that a hotel with a road on one side and a railway on the other would be noisy, but it was quite the opposite! The only sound present was the bleating of sheep in the distance, which only adds to the atmosphere. The breakfast didn’t have a big variety of different foods, but it was still very delicious! You also get free orange juice served to your table, which was great. And what is probably the best part - how nice our host was. From check-in to check-out, we were always greeted with a smile and given any and all help that we needed. It’s not often that you meet such warm, friendly and energetic people in the world of hospitality. Thank you, Daria!

What a brilliant place to stay. Part communal living, part casual resort, part family-style retreat, we were delighted by the subtle touches and care that staff provided in our too-brief stay. Large, spacious, comfortable room, with welcoming bed and exquisite pillows; an oversized bathroom with great shower. Lovely balcony beneath shaded trees. And the extras: we came home from a day of exploring to find our room tided, clothing we had hung over a chair rail on the balcony to dry hung neatly on a drying rack that had escaped our view; bedding neatened and sleeping attire folded and left atop the duvet. We didn't take advantage of the continental breakfast, but used the spacious, well-equipped kitchen to prepare an evening meal for a break from expensive and mediocre Swiss cuisine in the area, which was a welcome break. We also prepared our own breakfast in the morning before departure on the last day. Quiet, comfortable, extremely reasonably priced - we highly recommend a stay.

The views from our hotel balcony and room were simply stunning. Delicious breakfast with a table next to the window with panoramic view of the Swiss Alps.

Our junior suite was excellent

The location and views from the hotel are great. It is a nice quiet place and the breakfast is very good.
