Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers exceptional mountain views from rooms with kitchenettes on 2 storeys, providing a cozy stay with heaters and fabulous views. The service went above and beyond to assist us in finding missing items after check-out, but could be improved in terms of customer interaction. The location is conveniently situated near town and offers a picturesque walk by the lake. The dining experience provides a lovely view of the bay and delicious homemade products. Overall, a getaway with stunning views and cozy amenities, though service could use a bit more warmth.
Our stay at the hotel was simply wonderful. The rooms had a charming character and were perfect for our family of 5, including our 3 young children. The bed was incredibly comfortable, providing us with a relaxing sleep. However, the customer service could be more helpful and less abrupt at times.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with a few highlights and some areas for improvement. The rooms were spacious, modern, and clean, offering a beautiful view towards the mountains and providing a relaxing experience with the operatic music playing. However, the customer service was a bit abrupt, although the manager was exceptionally lovely and attentive. The location, nestled on a little hill, was charming, but the central area being noisy was a drawback. The dining experience with homemade fresh products was delightful, while the facilities were well-maintained and offered a range of services from dry cleaning to ski equipment hire.
