Koselig landsby i fjellet med autentisk stil

Fin liten fjellandsby med superhyggelig vertskap på hotellet. Restaurant i tilknytning og elbillader tvers over vegen. Sjarmerende sted. Ganske lytt mellom rommene, noe som ikke gjør noe når «naboene» tar hensyn, men det gjorde ikke våre. Men det er ikke stedets feil 😊

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Menefreghismo puro

Ci hanno accolto con freddezza, non ci è stato dato alcun materiale informativo o informazioni utili a voce. Dopo aver consultato l'opuscolo in camera, ho trovato alcune cose che ci potevano far comodo; veniva indicato di rivolgersi alla reception, la stessa reception che un paio di minuti prima ci indicava a mala pena come raggiungere la nostra stanza. Abbiamo cenato nel ristorante che serviva i clienti con tempi biblici. Noi siamo riusciti ad avere il piatto ordinato dopo ben 50 minuti, persino la bottiglia dell'acqua è arrivata assieme al piatto e non prima. Regna il caos tra lo staff. Non mi sarei mai aspettato una cosa simile. E menomale che l'hotel è a conduzione familiare da 3 generazioni. Ovunque ci si voltava si notava che non fanno miglioramenti alla struttura da decenni. Proprio non capisco come venga recensito con voti altissimi.

Fine, well kept hotel in a small alpine village

Fine, well kept hotel in a quiet town near the Julier Pass, with somewhat dated room. Furniture and interior furnishings did not appear to have been updated since the early 1990's, when wing that we stayed in was completed. Breakfast buffet was excellent and comprehensive. If you're looking for top notch lodging and dining, there are other towns in the region with better choices. Location is right in the center of town, and some distance from the main road, so we were not disturbed by passing traffic.
