The hotel is beautifully situated and offers fantastic spa facilities, making it a great choice for relaxation. The staff is friendly, and the shuttle service to the ski gondola is efficient.

My experience at the hotel had its highs and lows. On the plus side, I found the staff to be exceptionally attentive and friendly, particularly the restaurant manager who accommodated dietary needs. The spa facilities were a highlight, perfect for unwinding after a day on the slopes. However, I faced inconveniences like a lack of reliable Wi-Fi and issues with room cleanliness which detracted from the overall enjoyment.

The hotel is well-placed for skiing, with convenient shuttle services to the gondola and a lovely heated pool area. However, the dining options were not up to par, and the atmosphere can be hectic due to families with young children. The rooms were warm and comfortable, but service and cleaning could have been more attentive.
