Laundry service

I will be going on this tour next month. I don't want to overpack, but I'm a little concerned about getting the laundry done in hotels since we're not going to be in any hotel more than 2 nights. Has anyone had experience with the laundry services in the hotels? Thanks.

  • We are going on this tour next week and I was wondering the same thing myself. I looked at the websites for the various hotels to see what accommodations they have. Some have laundry available but I don't know if that means there is a laundry room or they have a laundry service. I can get back to you when we get back, when are you leaving?
  • That would be great, Moe. I'm going on the tour on July 24. Thanks.
  • MCD we will be going on the July 24 tour, too. This is our 7th Tauck tour, and seldom are there self laundry facilities. At best we can hope for is sending out dry cleaning at the hotels.
  • Thank you for your response, G&CL. I'm fine with sending laundry out to be done at the hotel; I was just concerned about the fact that we'll be in any given hotel only 2 nights, and didn't know how quickly the hotels could turn around the laundry. This will be our first escorted tour; hence the "rookie" questions. It's nice to have pros like you available for help.
  • I look forward to meeting you, MCD. Tauck and the tour directors do an excellent job of taking care of their guests.
  • MCD
    On the tour now and most of the hotels have laundry service but it's 48 hours turnaround so there is not time to send it out. The only one I saw with express service was Hotel Sacher and they did a fine job and had it back when promised
  • Thank you, Moe. I've been following your posts on the other forum as well. You have been a tremendous help. I hope you've enjoyed the trip.

    I'm looking forward to meeting you, too, G&CL.
  • Has anyone seen any laundromats in the towns? On past tours we've used some of our free time to do laundry in towns. this will be our 4th Tauck tour and we've
    found laundromats on the previous 3 near the hotels.
  • I'm back from the tour, which was wonderful. In case anyone is interested, I wanted to let you know that I had no trouble having landry washed at the Victoria Jungfrau Hotel in Interlaken and at the Grand Hotel Lienz. In both cases, I gave the laundry to them in the morning and had it back the same evening.
