Reviews and Ratings
I was downstairs so there was no view, which might bother those worried about theft; however, the room was immaculate. The service was top-notch with pleasant housekeeping and efficient shuttle services. The location was absolutely perfect with ample space in the room and convenient parking outside. The dining experience included never-ending coffee/tea in a great spot. Overall, great value for money.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean, spacious, and colorful, although I wished there was a proper door for privacy. The king bed was super comfy with luxurious linens. The service was top-notch, with attentive housekeeping and a convenient shuttle service. The location was perfect for skiing in and out, and the lady at check-in/out was lovely. Despite a slightly disappointing dining experience, the Singapore noodles were a nice touch, and the facilities were great overall.
I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and had a lovely sunny outlook, although they became less quiet when other guests moved in nearby. The service was top-notch with excellent housekeeping and a convenient shuttle service. The location right in the center of the mountain village was perfect for us, easily accessible and with a fun cafe attached. The dining was delicious, especially the fresh muffins and fruit. Overall, a lovely place to stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel had a basement-type feel with only high up windows, but the room was clean and large enough to fit our bikes. The 3-digit combination door lock provided security, but the noise from the exhaust ventilation was unbearable at times.
The hotel is centrally located and close to lift access, making it convenient for exploring the area. The room was clean, but a bit small; it would have been nice to have the sink and mirror inside the room instead of the bathroom. The receptionist was absolutely lovely and check-in/check-out was a breeze, plus there was ample space in the room. However, due to its small size and location, it may not be the best choice for visitors on motorcycles.
I was downstairs, so there was no view, but the room was spacious. The rooms are very outdated and too small for the amount charged. They were very quiet until other people moved into rooms nearby.
