    The hotel was awesome with its

    Lovely views and really good spa facilities. Our room was spacious and well-maintained, though we faced a delay during check-in that was a bit inconvenient. It was a nice anniversary getaway that we hope to repeat.

    When I booked the room I requested a room with view to the Cervino Mountain which I did not get. It was not a big deal as during the time I was there the weather was not clear and we could not see the mountains from anywhere.

    Friendly staff and well kept Suisse style hotel. The sauna and pool facilities are very good too.

    The ski bus stop is not too close (maybe 200m) and then down some steps. I recommend leaving your skis locked up near the funi for 2chf per night to save carriage both ways.

    Excellent location, everything perfect. Staff was really friendly and knowledgable about the ski area and town and gave lots of good advice on where to go and how to get around.
