Don’t be fooled by its name, the Central Hotel Post Chur’s hotel nature ends right there. Instead, guests are surprised to learn upon arrival of the many horrors in this so called “hotel”. The first surprise guests learn about when they arrive in the magical city of Chur is that Hotel Post doesn’t have private bathrooms in each expensive room, but instead there are shared floor bathrooms that aren’t clearly advertised online unless you’re looking carefully for it or have read other people’s unhappy reviews. We moved from a “budget room” to a “comfort room”, which wasn’t comfortable at all. In addition, the “high speed internet” that Hotel Post raves about doesn’t actually work, and after speaking to one of the hotel employees about it, they refused to help solve the issue and told us that it was “an issue with our phones”. The fun doesn’t stop there! The hotel has absolutely no A/C, which, as you can imagine, is problematic in the warm summer months, such as now in June. The only solution provided to guests is one fan per room which doesn’t provide guests with much relief. After mentioning this to the hotel manager (who asked how out sleep had been), we mentioned that the room was very hot and the fan didn’t provide any relief. Instead of apologizing and finding a solution, she gaslit us and told us that we should have asked for another fan and that we should keep the shutters closed (which we had). Another fun addition to our stay was the early sunlight that shone into the room due to the lack of blackout curtains. Since shutters don’t properly keep out all light, we were awakened as the sun rose, and we also woke up to the street sounds since we had to keep the windows open to let in more air. After our early wake up, we enjoyed a limited breakfast at the buffet, which had a total of 4 pieces of fruit in the “fruit basket” and no toaster to make toast with. Just some side notes to add to the fun: the toilet seat wasn’t screwed on properly in our room, the luggage rack was broken, the bedding was scratchy, and the pillows were lumpy. So, if you’re looking for an unpleasant, expensive, hostile, hostel experience, the Central Hotel Post in Chur is the place to go.

Gabriel made the whole place feel like home. From the moment we arrived we felt cared for and served . We enjoyed our varied and plentiful breakfast. The room was very clean and comfortable. Chur is a wonderful city to visit .
