Freundliches Personal, gemütliche und stilvolle Einrichtung mit liebe zum Detail, gutes Frühstück mit veganem Croissant und veganem Chiapudding, super Lage.

Im Bad müssten die Heizung, Föhn und die Wände mal gereinigt werden, etwas staubig/fleckig.

Chouette hôtel
Pros:

Emplacement idéal pour des vacances en famille, à proximité des berges, de la zone piétonne, de nombreux magasins et commerces.
Le marché est à proximité immédiate également.
Les dames de l'accueil étaient adorables, femmes de chambre agréables.

Lovely location
Pros:

Great location and staff were helpful in giving us local taxi numbers to help us get there from train station. Rooms was spacious and appreciated large fridge and free water. Kept clean and lovely welcome drink on arrival.

Cons:

Older property so there are stairs to get to room. No issue for us but could be issue for those with mobility issues. Bathroom has a very small shower which may not be large enough or suitable for some parties.

Amazing stay , will definitely book again 🙂
Pros:

Absolutely wonderful stay at Hotel Ancora! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

From the moment we arrived, the staff were absolutely amazing — incredibly kind, welcoming and helpful. It was also great that they speak several languages, including English, which made everything very easy and comfortable.

The bed was super comfortable, and we had a beautiful view from our window overlooking the lake. Waking up to that view was definitely one of the highlights of our stay! 🌅

Breakfast was delicious, with a very nice selection and everything tasting fresh and enjoyable.

And one little detail really made our stay even more special — the hotel kindly gifted a toy to our child. 🎁 It was such a thoughtful and lovely gesture, and something we truly appreciated.

Overall, a fantastic experience with wonderful people, comfortable rooms, beautiful views and excellent hospitality. We would happily stay at Hotel Ancora again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area! ❤️

Cons:

Nothing I could think about
