The Service in the restaurants (there are only 2 open in the winter) is unbelievably slow and inefficient. The food is excellent. A great place to go if the wether is nice.

This is a gem of a hotel in the National Park Village. We loved the location, Spiral Restaurant and the communal gathering areas in the restaurant and bar. Everything was super clean, staff were capable and friendly. The views of the mountains at sunset in front of the hotel are special.
