Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which boasts a great location right next to the ski cable car and a nearby ski school. The rooms were quite spacious and had a lovely view of the mountains, making them very comfortable. However, the room service could use some improvement, and it felt like they were trying to nickel-and-dime us with some chargeable items that felt out of place among the complimentary ones. Overall, it’s a good option for skiing but not without its quirks.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location is surrounded by beautiful wooded mountains and is conveniently close to the cable car station, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms are spacious but lack privacy as they're visible from the road. While the service staff were friendly and accommodating, they could improve on replenishing items faster. Dining had a good variety but presentation could use some work. Overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxing getaway, although a few improvements could elevate the experience.
I had a pleasant experience at the hotel, highlighted by its amazing location right next to the gondola lifts and easy access to the activity area. The rooms were spacious and nicely decorated, making my stay quite comfortable. However, I did find that the service could use some improvements in friendliness, particularly at the front desk. Overall, it offered great value for money despite some areas needing attention.
The hotel is situated in a fantastic location, right next to the cable car and surrounded by stunning mountain views. The rooms could have been cleaner, but the helpful staff really made my stay enjoyable. While the service was friendly overall, it was a bit slow at times. Dining options were varied and tasty, which added to the overall experience.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The views from my room were nothing to write home about, as it faced parked cars even though it was advertised as having a view. The staff were professional but not overly friendly. The location was a bit remote, so make sure you bring any necessities with you. On the bright side, the dining included some surprising and delicious complimentary wine tastings that really impressed me.
