Engelberg European Tour Hotel Reviews Hotel Swiss Star Mt. Titlis Switzerland Switzerland Hotel The Travel Junkie Traveling Wetzikon

Our fourth home during our European tour, Hotel Swiss Star in Wetzikon, Switzerland.

From Liechtenstein we traveled for another 2.5 hours heading to our next destination which is Switzerland. But before we move forward to our tour of Mt. Titlis and Lucerne, check out my review of the Hotel Swiss Star, one of my faves during this trip. ;)

I like how modern the hotel looks like, this is their double room.


It was very spacious and and sunny too since windows were as high as the ceiling.


We had enough space for our stuff and luggages so it wasn't hard to move around.

 
Bathroom was superb, very chic, modern and clean too!


I forgot to mention that the hotel has motion sensor lights which is good for security but even better since they save energy. ;)


The overnight rate for their double room costs around ₱6500, good for 2 pax with breakfast.

Speaking of breakfast, did I enjoy their breakfast? Well it was like 50-50 since they served the usual bread and cheese with a few cold cuts here and there. But I love that they served us hard boiled eggs. Haha. It was something new compared to what the other hotels served for breakfast. I even got to bring some because other tourists didn't want to eat theirs. At least I now have baon inside the bus. Hihihi. Apart from that there was a grocery nearby so I was able to buy swiss chocolates for pasalubong. ;) Overall, I loved this hotel so if this is part of your tour then go for it!

Before moving forward to Switzerland, we had a stopover at Liechtenstein, the fourth smallest state in Europe and the sixth smallest country in the world (imagine it's a little bigger than Makati City). Divided into 11 municipalities, its capital is Vaduz and largest town Schaan.

The city center of Vaduz is few meters away from Vaduz Castle. According to Conde Nast, Liechtenstein is one of the countries where you can get a beer with the royal family.


The Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein is the state museum of modern and contemporary art in Vaduz. The building by the Swiss architects Meinrad Morger, Heinrich Degelo and Christian Kerez was completed in November 2000.

 
There were a few artworks around the area including this bronze sculpture of a nude woman by Colombian painter and sculptor Fernando Botero Angulo and Tre Cavalli by Nag Arnoldi.

 
Anyway, aside from cafe's, restaurants and museums, there were a few watch shops too. Most of the shoppers were Chinese! China's too rich they have no idea what to do with their money, lol.


How cute are those telephone booths?


Liechtenstein is a nice place but it's too freakin' expensive for me. Couldn't even accept the fact that a cheap ass fridge magnet costs €10!


Our last stop for that day is our 4th home in Europe, Hotel Swiss Star. Watch out for my review on the my next post. :) Bis spöter!
