Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were fully engulfed in grill meat smell and a bit of smoke, but despite that, they were very spacious and comfortable with an amazing view over the mountains. The large balcony and very comfortable bed added to the cozy feel of the room, although it had an old but well-preserved charm.
I found the hotel's location fantastic, nestled close to the Alps with mesmerizing views, perfect for a relaxing stay. The rooms, though needing a fresh coat of paint, offered a cozy ambiance with a balcony that provided a stunning view of the majestic Alps. The service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly welcoming and attentive to all our needs, even surprising us with a bountiful breakfast spread. The location, just a ten-minute stroll from the cable car and restaurants, was convenient, but guests should be ready for some walking. The dining experience was quite good, offering a nice selection of breakfast items, albeit with room for improvement in creativity and variety. The hotel's facilities were well-maintained and added to the overall pleasant stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite small and had a faint cigarette smell; however, the view onto the Alps was fabulous, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was very helpful. Unfortunately, the noise from the bar and entrance area could be bothersome, and the breakfast was subpar.
The hotel offers a cozy stay with a big bathroom and soft towels. The breakfast experience was not great, and there was a slight cigarette smell in the rooms. However, the view of the Alps from the balcony was fabulous, and the staff was extremely helpful providing us with necessary tools for our journey.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great views of the Alps and some noise from the adjacent room, but overall, it was comfortable with helpful staff.

The location was convenient for peace and quiet, though it required some walking. The dining experience was okay but could use more variety. The facilities were decent overall.
