Hotel des Alpes gave me a price for a room facing city (alley) and apparently they don't have the rooms for river view available yet. KJA did you have a river room view as well? One concern I had was that some of the reviews mentioned that the rooms were "tired" and elevator very small. Did you find that true?

As I just mentioned, I had a river-side room and thought it well worth it -- the views really are quite wonderful. I remember a fair amount of noise early in the evening -- the height of "happy hour" -- but the noise level dropped substantially after that, so that once I came back from dinner, I barely noticed the sound. That said, it's been a while and my memory could be faulty.

mokka4 we went ahead and booked Hotel Schlussel in a deluxe double room with balcony. It's very large (323 sq ft) and great price. Thank you for all your help and everyone else's on this forum.
