We loved the friendliness and attentiveness of all the staff. The position of the hotel is perfect, Rapperswil has a beautiful historic old part and Hotel Jakob could not be in a better position. The hotel has some quirky contemporary elements and decor that make it a fun and interesting place to stay. The lunch and dinners were exceptional, the cocktails were magnificent. However, there are so many superb restaurants that you can easily walk to if you want to change scenery.

There was nothing we didn't like about the hotel, I am confident that if there was, it would have been corrected immediately.

The location of this hotel is brilliant, a 5min walk to the train station with direct services to Zurich and 5min away from all the restaurants and the lake. Everyone working at the hotel were very nice and helpful and the atmosphere in the restaurant was great in the evenings.

The quality of the breakfast was good but with limited variety.

Great setting in the main square of the Altstadt. Convenient for the harbour area, the train station and restaurants. The hotel is ideal for a short stay in the centre of Rapperswil. The staff are very polite and helpful.

You definitely pay a premium for location. The rooms are basic but clean. However, because of the convenient location, I'd stay again.

Breakfast was delicious. The staff really approachable and friendly. The rooms and bathrooms were spotless. We needed three rooms for the size of our party. Two were next to each other which was fab!

We ended up with our third room on a different floor which made things a little tricky but not impossible.

Central

For price and the fact we were only sleeping and leaving the next morning, we opted for the shared bathroom. Everything was perfectly clean and fine. However the price for a room with shared bathroom was not value for money.

Hotel is modern and very minimalistic decoration. The location is great. Very central. Breakfast was really nice. Good offer of bread and cheese, coffee, juices and some cereals.

Not much closet space. But it was ok. There were some shelves.

Spacious room, great location and the AC was helping us with the sleeping in the summer nights

The AC was leaking a little bit but the hotel is working on it. The price was higher because a local festival.

The service was excellent, and very friendly . The manager and front office personal were reall friendly,helpful, and provided some good tips about Rapperswil. I was given a kettle and some tea bags for my room... this was a wonderful plus. The restaurant looked very busy in the evening, which was a good sign. And breakfast the next morning completed my opinion that I`d made a good choice in staying there. On checking out, I knew,.. I`ll be coming back.Thanks again for the great stay.

Maybe a kettle , and some tea bags in the room.. but I got one when I asked. Thanks again.

Close to the station and all the facilities of Rapperswil. We stayed with three young children and they loved it too! Room and facilities were clean and breakfast plentiful and delicious.

One of the two rooms had a shared bathroom.
