I had a lovely stay at the hotel, it was conveniently located just a short walk from the gondola, making it perfect for skiing. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and well-kept, but I did wish the breakfast options had a bit more variety. The spa facilities were a great way to unwind after a day on the slopes. Overall, the hotel provided good value for money, but I think the dining experience could be enhanced with more choices.
