amazing stay with lovely views

recent redesignmountain viewvillage centernoise issue

i had such a great time! the breakfasts were fabulous and the breakfast room is recently redesigned (i loved it). my room had an amazing picturesque view over the mountain. i appreciated the short five minute walk to the village center with all its shops.

i wish the hotel had more available rooms when i arrived. i overheard another guest complaining about a noise issue with the kitchen's extractor shaft, and i felt bad for them.
