class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

Hotel Raben in Zofingen is the worst-rated hotel in the canton of Aargau on Google, according to the review by “Tages-Anzeiger”. It has an average rating of 2.8 stars. “This hotel should be closed,” one reviewer writes; For example, he complains about mosquitoes in the bathroom, cold water in the shower, and peanuts on the floor. It concludes: “Not recommended.” So far, guests pay between 69 and 135 francs for a night’s stay.

Owners didn’t shy away from bad reviews; They are fed up now. The hotel was closed immediately, as “Zofinger Tagblatt” and “Aargauer Zeitung” unanimously reported on Friday.

General manager retires

On October 17, a meeting was held between the general manager, owner, trustee, and property manager. “By mutual consent, we have decided to cease operations immediately,” the landowner’s representative, Jesus Lorente, told “Zofinger Tagblatt” on Friday. The hotel’s previous general manager, Ranjit Hundal (65), is retiring and stock is being purchased.

In any case, Hundal had planned to operate the hotel and the adjacent Tex Mex restaurant exclusively until next summer. Hundal, who manages the hotel and restaurant almost single-handedly, has been struggling with health problems recently, in addition to the financial problems he has experienced since the corona epidemic.

This is what happens to hotel rooms

Lorente said Hundal seemed relieved when it became clear that the Old Town Hotel would have to close. They are now looking for a new tenant.

Ten hotel rooms will be rented to people who plan to stay longer, according to Lorente. The property manager Baur, Trinh & Partner GmbH will take care of this. Meanwhile, Lorente wants to work on a project that suits everyone involved.
