Idyllic overnight stay

PeterRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We spent 9 nights in Brigitte's apartment, which is located above Appenzell (about 10 minutes' walk from the center) on the edge of the forest and offers a wonderful view of the Alpstein. Wonderfully quiet and close to nature. The granny flat of the farmhouse has recently been tastefully and gently renovated, with the well-equipped kitchen and bathroom being new and modern, while the large living room and bedroom are preserved in the old, characterful style. Brigitte is a very warm host. She provided us with current tips (for alpine lifts you have to get up early...;-) and answered our questions within a very short time. We were completely satisfied! Around Appenzell there is plenty to see and discover: taste alpine bitters, cheese factory, bake beavers, indoor pool, village tour, golf course Gonten, etc… Säntis with Schwägalp, Ebenalp with the Äscher, Kronberg and Hoher Kasten offer great hikes for everyone. Recommended.

Roger’s place is an absolute hidden gem! The place was impeccably clean and had everything I needed, and more. It’s located in a peaceful and beautiful area at a relatively higher altitude, offering amazing views from all sides. The sunsets every night were especially dreamy. We felt lucky to have found this place and definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys the beauty of Appenzell. Thanks, Roger!

There were two of us in the beautiful part of Wendy and Sven's house. Wendy welcomed us and showed us the charming apartment in her Appenzell house. In the spacious kitchen we were able to cater perfectly, the fridge is large and there is plenty of dishes available. Great that there is also a dishwasher! Tabs, detergent, sponge, enough kitchen towels, everything available. Also plenty of towels and toilet paper. We didn't miss anything. We took beautiful hikes and had good food in neighboring Heiden. We also visited the Henry Dunant Museum in Heiden - very interesting! In the cozy living room, we were able to relax well and review our experiences. The ceilings and door frames are low because it is an old, very pretty, renovated Appenzell house, you have to be a little careful. We're looking forward to our next visit with Wendy and Sven!

ArchanaRating, 5 stars10 months ago

The apartment is charming and very clean. The location is great, walkable to many restaurants. It is on the 4th floor (US Standard) with no elevator, so pack light! During our stay, the building was going through some renovation and the facade had a plastic cover. Plus, Google maps didn't help much with the exact location so we had a bit of a hiccup finding the building. The checkout time on the Airbnb listing states 10 am, but we were asked to check out by 9.30 am, which was not a problem for us since we had plans to leave early. The kitchen is well stocked and there is a great selection of coffee! Overall, our family of 4 had a comfortable two night stay. Thanks for hosting us!

We stayed at this wonderful place for the 2nd time and enjoyed the 5 days very much. Here we feel very much at home and everything you need is available. The place is very clean, quietly located, cozily furnished, everything is available and Marlis is a super host! What more could you ask for? I'm sure we'll be back! Being able to experience the old New Year's Eve (Chlausen) in Urnäsch was an absolute highlight and very impressive. You can also do great, beautiful hikes in the area. We highly recommend this place! Marlis, thank you for everything and see you another time :-). José and Urs Oggier, Valais
