The hotel has a great location with a nice view over the city, which was definitely a highlight of my stay. The rooms, while comfortable, felt a bit outdated, and it was unexpectedly cold during the night. On the bright side, the staff was kind and helpful, but the service in the gym and spa could use more attention. Overall, it offers good value for money but has some areas that could be improved.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel, especially the bright and airy rooms thanks to the large windows. The location was perfect for those who love nature, with great paths for running or skiing nearby. However, the service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being quite rude and unhelpful at times. Additionally, the room felt quite cold during my stay, making it uncomfortable without extra layers. Overall, it was good value for money, but a few improvements could make it excellent.

The room was nice and very luminous, but the old 20" CRT TV felt outdated and needed a makeover. Also, it was extremely cold, and I had to bundle up in pajamas, socks, and an extra long-sleeved shirt to sleep comfortably.

I stayed at this hotel primarily for its great proximity to nature, and it definitely delivered on that front. The staff was excellent and the options for sports activities were impressive. However, the rooms felt a bit outdated and could use a freshen up. Unfortunately, I was also disappointed when the pool was rented out for an external class, limiting my access during my stay.

The hotel is in a great location, close to nature and offering plenty of parking. The staff is friendly and helpful, but the service can be inconsistent and sometimes a bit rude. The rooms are quite a distance from reception and lacked a few essentials, which made things a bit inconvenient. Overall, it offers decent value for money, especially with good dining options.

Rooms

The rooms were a bit difficult to find, being about 200 meters from reception, and I had to pull the curtains because of people walking by. Unfortunately, there wasn't a functioning hair dryer or trousers press, which was disappointing.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which offered a great view over the city and nice areas nearby. The rooms were simple but comfortable, and the staff was generally friendly and helpful. However, the dining experience was not great, and there were some noise issues that kept it from being perfect. Overall, it’s a decent spot for the price, especially if you prioritize location and value for money.
