Sonne Seehotel

The recently renovated hotel is fantastic, lovely view on Sempachersee and hillsides, great cozy atmosphere, wonderful restaurant, friendly and efficient service. A great location and a very, very nice place to stay for a short or even a longer stay!

We gathered our whole family together for a little celebration and went to the Sonne Seehotel in Eich on the Sempachersee. March is not the best time of year to make the best of the surroundings or the lake, but we all enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. Not least due to this hotel which turned out to be a perfect venue for a family get together. The rooms are sufficiently spacious with all the modern amenities and a very comfortable bed. Make sure to book a lake view room which affords a lovely view of Lake Sempach, even on a somewhat grey March weekend. We were catered to most attentively throughout our stay. In the lively restaurant, the staff is evidently accustomed to families with young children. A complete menu for just about every taste is provided and the food is excellent. If you are interested is trying local dishes, try the Balchenfilets, a wonderfully tasty fish from the lake. The wine list is surprisingly extensive, including many Swiss, Italian, French and Spanish wines, without being too high end. Again, if you are into trying local wines, as we are, select the Pinot Gris from the Brunner winery in Eichberg just close by. The surprisingly extensive and delicious breakfast buffet should also get a mention. So, in all, we spent a wonderful weekend in the Sonne Seehotel as a whole family, but I could also recommend going there as a couple. Finally, I must give a round of applause to the most attentive and friendly staff in this hotel. My wife and I have stayed in many hotels around the world, but rarely have I encountered such a consistently helpful and friendly staff.

No-one at reception when I arrived at 11.00pm. Why??? Oh yes, saving money. Ten minutes trying to find my room because of the most stupid number design I have ever seen. Impossible to get online till I went downstairs to find someone, who just laughed . The most ridiculous room design I have ever come across - not enough light anywhere, controls all in German. Totally impractical Bathroom tap that only opened full strength. Morally difficult - do you have no idea about world water shortage?? Finally, because the room was so dark I left a sweater in my room. The I asked them to send it the reply was "we don't send things abroad" Really says a lot doesn't it, and why many people coming to Switzerland find a soulless country whose first priority is always money, money, money... Thank God for Italy and real, warm human beings

Great place to stay with a magnificent view of the lake at Eich in Switzerland, an excellent option to have a relaxing time, even if you stay for a business trip. 10/10 I'll stay again, considering to get back soon.

We booked a room with balcony and lake view and were delighted with both. The balcony was very private with comfy modern furniture and it overlooked a pretty garden and the lake. We stayed when the weather was hot and sunny so we could make good use of the hotel-owned lido, which was a huge plus for us (sun loungers, umbrellas and SUP use is free for hotel guests). We also thoroughly enjoyed the hotel restaurant where the food was excellent and the service prompt and friendly, despite the fact that it was extremely busy. Highly recommend this hotel

Room was a bit small but very clean and new. Service very good. A/C working great. Lovely view from the restaurant and a very nice breakfast.

Absolutely beautiful area. Views from our room stunning. Would stay here again. Staff excellent

Fantastic hotel by the lake, views beautiful. Staff were really excellent, we were well looked after. Great attention to detail. Very clean and the food was out of this world. Loved our stay, just brilliant! Thank you 😊
