Clean and peaceful. Loved the history of this place, their orchard, pond, garden and pasture. So sad I did not get to try their cakes.

Hotel is cute, rooms are basic but good and clean. Feel a like a real monastery. Building and area is beautiful BUT no AC. It was a hot day and the room was extremely hot.
The breakfast is basic too but good. Staff was friendly.

Ein zweckmässig eingerichtetes Zimmer aber eine wunderschöne Lage.
Besonders zu empfehlen im Frühling, wenn alle Bäume blühen und man eine fantastische Sicht in die Berge hat.
Man muss sich einfach bewusst sein, dass man in einem Kloster ist und nicht in einem Luxushotel, aber es ist extrem empfehlenswert.

Gutes Hotel in alten Gemäuern
Tolles Hotel in altem Gemäuer. Einfache Zimmer sowie einfaches Frühstück, eben genau so wie man es von einem Kloster erwarten würde.

Externally is wonderful. The rooms are a disappoin
Externally the place is superb.
But inside the refurbishment / renovation completely has completely distorted the environment. They put red lacquered handrails, red tiles in the corridors and laminate in the rooms instead of using the natural stone that was probably present before the renovation.
In the room there is no airconditioned, nor refirgerator or television. But there is free WiFi.
The refectory is asthonishing. Is located in the basement of the church and for reaching it you need to pass in the closter which is very well maintened. Externally there is an impressive garden full of aromatic herbs which worth a visit. The panorama is really amazing.
The breakfast is extremely frugal but good. There are no croissants, eggs or continental breakfast. The decision to keep the monastic tradition for breakfast somewhat clashes with the wine display where Amarone, Brunello and other very fine and expensive Italian wines stand out and have little to do with the much ostentatious 'monasticity' of breakfast

Positiv:
Die Geschichte der Anlage und die Ruhe
Der durftende Kräutergarten und die tolle Aussicht
Zum Optimieren:
Das Angebot beim Frühstück - gekochtes Ei und Brötchen fehlten leider
Ein Wasserkocher auf dem Zimmer wäre sinnvoll

Als Reisender muss man eine Klosteranlage mögen!
Es ist einfach aber sehr funktional eingerichtet.
Das Kloster ist wunderbar gelegen und sehr ruhig (Glockengeläut der Kühe!).

Wir waren sehr positiv überrascht von dieser Unterkunft. Sauber, etwas spartanisch, aber modern eingerichtet.
Für unser Bedürfnis gerade richtig, für eine Nacht optimal. Gut gelegen, nahe Stadt Baar und Zug in wunderschöner ländlicher Gegend gelegen.

Beautiful Monastery
This is a beautiful hotel in an outstanding quiet location with breathtaking views. This old monastery is about more than the bedrooms. The rooms are clean but basic with no TVs. However the beds are comfy and the views incredible. Breakfast is basic but the breads and jams very tasty. Kloster Kappel for me was an experience more than a hotel stay.

Kloster Kappel
Wir übernachteten eine Nacht, auf der Durchreise, im Kloster. Die Atmosphäre war etwas kühl, wie die alten Mauern. Vielleicht liegt es daran, dass hier vor allem Gruppen für Seminare buchen. Das Zimmer war schön und sauber, gut gelegen mit einer wunderbaren Aussicht. Auf der Terrasse gab es kleine Mahlzeiten. Wer sich für Geschichte interessiert, ist hier am richtigen Ort.
