Pros:

Tolle Lage beim Riessersee, auch das Seehaus Riessersee hat einen schönen Blick auf den See, leckere Angebote auf der Karte.

Das Personal war sehr nett.

Cons:

Teppichboden mit starkem Reinigungsgeruch bei Ankunft (parfümiert?)

Buffett beim Abendessen war okay, hätte für den Preis mehr erwartet.

Fernseher hatte keine Smart-Funktion

Pros:

Das Hotel liegt malerisch am Riesersee mit den Bergen im Hintergrund also traumhaftes Panorama.
Das Abendessen war das beste, dass ich jemals gegessen habe, so köstlich und liebevoll zubereitet. Auch der Saunabereich und der Swimmingpool sind sehr zu empfehlen, sauberes Hotel und sehr freundliches Personal. Werde wieder hierherkommen.
Besser geht es nicht.
