I had a nice stay at this hotel thanks to its fantastic central location, right across from the main cable car. The rooms were clean, but a bit basic and could use a fridge or kettle. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my experience much more enjoyable. However, dining options were somewhat limited and on the pricier side, which was a bit of a letdown.

The hotel is in a fantastic location, just across from the main cable car and only a short walk to great skiing. The rooms are quiet but a bit narrow, and the staff is genuinely friendly and helpful. On the downside, breakfast can get quite crowded as everyone starts at the same time. Overall, it's a great spot for skiing with easy access to the slopes, but the room size and breakfast chaos could be improved.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, just a stone's throw from the ski lift, making it super convenient for hitting the slopes. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean, but I did miss having a balcony or a nice view. The breakfast spread was truly amazing, offering a variety of delicious options to start the day right. However, the lack of certain amenities like air conditioning was a bit of a downside.
