We booked this hotel through a local friend and were glad we did. The location, just across the street from the train station, is terrific. It's also located in the center of the Rapperswil 'Old Town', one of the most delightful settings we encountered on our trip through Switzerland. The area is dotted with quality restaurants and high-end shopping. And... More

Another stop for us was the lovely Hotel Hirschen, stunning location next to the beautiful lake, we had great dinner, lovely wine, excellent breakfast. I must say by far the best breakfast I have ever had, on the negative the size of the room was small, the church bells a bit over the top as they go quite regularly. Definitely... More

The parking situation is somewhat awkward but there is no other situation. Room was nice with a great view on the lake. Guess the hotel, as all hotels along on the harbour, can be noisy sometimes as there a lot of open air bars and restaurants.

What a beautiful hotel overlooking the lake and restaurants. Perfect position, perfect room, great hospitality. If you are near Rapperswil you must stay here....if you are driving you do need the paid parking.

Mr and Mrs. Schnyder really let you feel at home. I was a troublesome guest who needed everything to change due to my work. They helped me out each time with a smile! And I had a room with a great view too! I'd recommend this hotel to everyone!

This is a great hotel. The different design of the building and its rooms make the place really unique and attractive and it is refreshing to stay in somewhere that does not all look exactly the same as other hotels. Rooms are large, comfortable, clean and very pretty. The staff are very helpful. Location is great. Highly recommended.

My partner and I stayed at the Hotel Hirschen this weekend as he was competing in the Ironman. The hotel owner was completely understanding of the competitors' needs, allowing bikes in the room, allowing my partner to cook his own porridge in their microwave and making sure that breakfast was available earlier than normally served on the Sunday. I asked... More

My husband & I just came back from a week-trip to Zurich and we stayed in beautiful Rapperswil. Hotel Hirschen is right in the middle of the old town with perfect views of the lake and the mountains.. A few steps away from the castle and rosegarden, surrounded by very nice restaurants and with the train station just across the... More

Our recent stay at the Hotel Hirschen in Rapperswill was a wonderful Swiss experience. It's small size and individually well appointed rooms add to its charm. The location couldn't be better. Across the street from the train station and within walking distance to many restaurants, the ferry terminal, the castle and shops. Being outside of Zurich, it is more reasonably... More
