Guest Ratings & Reviews
I absolutely loved the hotel's location, nestled close to the SantaSport and with excellent training facilities nearby. The rooms were spacious, with a separate bedroom and a convenient kitchen area, making my stay quite comfortable. The service, though overall helpful and gentle, had a minor hiccup when it came to communication about some facilities. The dining experience fell short of expectations, feeling more like a school canteen, but the warm bread was a nice touch. The facilities were decent, but there was a noticeable lack of some basic amenities that could enhance the overall experience.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was convenient for activities and amenities, although access to shops was a bit of a challenge. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering a good selection. Overall, it was a comfortable and pleasant stay with good value for money.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and had everything I needed. The service was friendly, although a bit lacking in giving information at times. The location was convenient for exploring the town center and ski slopes. The dining experience was average, but the fresh fruit was a nice touch. Overall, a great value for money stay.
