The hotel offers a cozy stay with a clean, albeit slightly small, room featuring an excellent mountain view. The service is very helpful and friendly, especially at the spa, but the location can be challenging with slippery pathways. The dining experience offers a good variety, although temperature control could be improved. Overall, a pleasant stay with great amenities and value for money.
The hotel offered a comfortable stay with spacious rooms for ski equipment, though it was a bit noisy at times. The service was friendly but slightly less attentive in some areas. The location was perfect for a cozy retreat but had some slippery areas. The dining experience provided a good variety, especially for meat eaters.
