Ich würde das Hotel trotz einiger Mängel dennoch empfehlen. Lage und Aussicht sind einmalig, das junge Team engagiert. A
Pros:

Es handelt dich um ein schlichtes aber schönes Hotel mit einfachen Standardzimmern, die gehobeneren haben wir nicht gesehen. Das Hotel besticht durch die schöne Lage und Aussicht.

Cons:

Die Standardzimmer bieten nur wenig Platz für Gepäck, es ist sinnvoll nur einen kleineren Koffer mitzunehmen.
Das Haus wird nach und nach renoviert, insofern gibt es gelegentlich Mängel, in unserem Zimmer z. B. war ein Rollo nur eingeschränkt nutzbar. Auch waren einige der wahrscheinlich Original 60er Jahre Möbel im Restaurant etwas abgenutzt.

Vi havde et super ophold og kommer helt sikkert igen.
Pros:

Den fantastiske smukke udsigt over søen og fjeldene, virkelig tilfreds med begivenheden.
Morgenmad serveret på en tallerken, hvor der var rigeligt mad, til at starte dagen på, god mad.
Aftensmaden var virkelig tilfredsstillende.

Cons:

Vi var meget tilfredse.

Außergewöhnliches Hotel in ruhiger Lage
Pros:

Das Hotel lag außerhalb und damit sehr ruhig. Die Aussicht sowohl vom Restaurant als auch vom Zimmer war hervorragend und beschleunigende.
Das Frühstück wurde am Tisch serviert und war ausreichend.

Cons:

Das Hotel wirkt mit einer minimalistischen Einrichtung, diese war so minimalistisch, dass es sehr wenig Ablagemöglichkeiten für das Reisegepäck gab, insbesondere auch im Bad.
Alles wirkte ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen, hier und da gab es defekte Stellen, zum Beispiel war an einer Stelle ein Holz abgebrochen, an anderer Stelle der Putz großflächig abgeblättert

Quelle déception !
Pros:

La vue. Le prix de la recharge électrique

Cons:

La vue ne fait pas tout... c'est ce que nous avons découvert... Accueil quelconque... Communication préalable largement insuffisante compte des contraintes imposées par l'hôtel : menu unique de 3 plats servi à 19h30 pétantes et bien trop cher... Assiette unique de petit déjeuner imposée : un peu de sucré et beaucoup de salé. On quitte la table et on a encore faim si on ne mange pas de salé. La seule question posée concernait les allergies et en aucun cas les goûts. Chambre vraiment très petite et très minimaliste. Literie trop molle. Cadre minimaliste. TV qui ne fonctionne pas. Draps tachés. Bâtiment qui baigne dans son jus. En conclusion cet hôtel ne propose qu'une vue et a oublié l'essentiel, tout les reste !

Seul bémol, la chambre était sous le restaurant donc j'ai été réveillée par les gens prenant leur petit dej

Very good stay
Pros:

Unique looking hotel with lovely views, our dinner was excellent as was the breakfast.

Cons:

Hotel is a little focused on form over function, as examples there is nowhere to put toilet paper in the bathroom except on cistern, kettle provided but plug doesn't reach shelf you have to plug it in on the floor.

Pros:

In one word: The view.
All was great, the room, the breakfast and dinner, but the view from the panoramic window is unbeatable.

Personality and character apart from history .
Pros:

Very nice hotel with a special personality and character. The team really took care of us and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The service felt personal and attentive, which made the experience stand out. Definitely a place with its own charm rather than just another standard hotel.
