Hotel Restaurant Falkenburg

I hadn't anticipated the extent to which the town is on a number of levels. The hotel is quite elevated and the view is excellent, but I was glad I took a taxi to arrive. In fact, it doesn't take as long to access the town as I thought it would, despite the fact that the funicular railway was closed the day I was there. The accommodation is very comfortable and spacious, and I was pleased that someone was there when I arrived. The restaurant was excellent, and is clearly very popular.

I think too much reliance is put on the expectation that you will self check in with an access code. Because someone was there when I arrived, this wasn't necessary, but there is a lot that could go wrong - if you can't access the message with the access code, for instance.

Amazing hotel with amazing staff, stunning views of the city, quiet location and spacious rooms, loved our stay there!

If I had to be picky, I would say if you are not travelling by car is a bit challenging to get to, due to a steep stretch of stairs, after you take the bus

The location -- with a beautiful panoramic view of St. Gallen -- is superb. The building and the room were "gemütlich" and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely place out of town on hilltop. Timid drivers won’t enjoy the narrow hairpin turns at the end. My objection is that nothing on Booking.com advised that when I booked for a Tuesday that their restaurant is closed Monday and Tuesday. So I arrived found everything locked, code access to room, no staff, no answer to phone. I was stuck on top of the hill kilometres from town with no bar, no food, nothing! Crazy thing is room rate stays the same whether restaurant open or not. Great place but not on a Monday or Tuesday and not if you wish to be in town to stroll the village.
