Hôtel très agréable avec une vue dont on ne se lasse jamais
Pros:

La vue est incroyable, le personnel à la réception a été absolument charmant.
La chambre était grande et très propre malgré une salle de bain un peu "dans son jus".
La situation de l'hôtel est parfaite à condition d'aimer marcher quelques minutes pour se rendre en centre ville. Beaucoup d'escaliers, mais heureusement, le funiculaire n'est pas loin.

Franchement pas bien.
Pros:

La vue est impressionante. Les recoins de l'hotel, dans un ancien monastère, sont sympas. Mais bon...

Cons:

La cabine de douche style EPHAD...
La porte de la SDB qui se ferme pas...
Les portes qui claquent...
340€/nuit...
Quelques efforts pour arranger la situation, mais in fine, un "c'est l'esprit de l'hotel"...
Des voisins de petit déjeuner ont demander un jus d'orange préssé... 5€...
Franchement, j'aurais préféré payer plus pour avoir mieux.
J'aurais même pu avoir mieux en payant moins.
Les boules.
