Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, priced at $180 per night, were conveniently located near the pool and sauna area, but they felt more like a 3-star rather than 4-star standard.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was convenient for accessing ski rental shops and the ski lift, the room I stayed in was noisy due to constant foot traffic outside. The staff, however, were professional and accommodating, even if there was a minor miscommunication about breakfast. The dining options were limited for specific dietary requirements, but the hotel offered a variety of amenities to make the stay comfortable.
The hotel is situated in a prime location, right by the ski route and a stone's throw away from the cable cars. The rooms were adequate, but with some noise issues, and there was a slight disappointment with the unavailability of certain amenities. Service had its ups and downs, with helpful staff but some miscommunication. The dining experience ranged from exceptional to below standard. The facilities were convenient but lacked a bit of warmth.
