An extremely useable and good hotel - really worked for our skiing holiday with good restaurants right next door and the good breakfasts set us up for the day.
Its inside a small shopping xcomplex with 2 resturants and a small kind of organic supermarket very friendly staff great breackfast room is spacious and simple greate view all over.
Really great hotel! Perfect for our family with a dog and baby. The free breakfast was wonderful. The staff was constantly cleaning up and replenishing the food, it was very pleasant. The location was great for hiking in the summer. The restaurant next door was perfect, we ate there both nights because it was so convenient. Highly recommend this hotel! Will definitely stay again!
Not the prettiest building from the outside, but once inside all is great. Lovely big rooms with extremely comfortable beds, sizeable bathroom and great views. We looked out over the road and railway, across the stream and up to the hills. Totally soundproof room - no traffic or train noise to be heard.
Lovely staff, always helpful and polite.
The breakfast is excellent - especially the egg station.
Highly recommend, and great pricing too!
Großartiger Spa-Bereich. Eigentlich machen sie vieles richtig. Leider wird dieser Eindruck durch 2 elementare Fails mehr als getrübt:
- die Sauberkeit im Zimmer ließ sehr zu wünschen übrig (Staub und Dreck, Spinnennetze, Schmutzrand, Spinne im Bad)
- die Holzwand im Zimmer splittert. ÄUßERST GEFÄHRLICH FÜR KLEINE KINDER!!!
DEt var en meget positiv oplevelse. Receptionen, hvor det hele jo starter, var meget venlig, med humor og god til at give de nødvendige info.
Morgenmaden var fremragende, især muligheden for selv at lave kogt æg, spejlæg osv. ret genialt. MEN, der var kun sojamælk, og for pokker, det ligger jo lige i Bondeland. hvordan kan man så undlade at have rigtig komælk med på menuen. Ja, det var håret i suppen, og er ikke af betydning, når alt vurderes. Dejligt ophold, og må være fedt om vinteren.
Der Empfang war nicht schön. Ich möchte nicht geduzt werden und als erstes gefragt werden: "na endlich, wo warst du solange?" Zumal ich telefonisch UND per Mail bekannt gegeben habe daß ich erst am Abend einchecken werde.
Sehr angenehmer Empfang. Tolles Frühstücks-Buffet. Schöne Zimmer. Coole Atmosphäre. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt vollends genossen und kommen gerne wieder.
