Pros:

Das Hotel selber an so einem Ort ist erstaunlich gut, hätte ich so nicht erwartet.

Cons:

Das Hotel liegt dermaßen weg vom Schuss, da muss man wirklich hin wollen.
Ich hätte gerne 4 Tage vorher storniert, aber das wurde mir verweigert.
Somit blieb ich für knappe 250 Euro statt 2 gebuchten Nächten nur eine, da eine Fahrt da runter und wieder hoch mindestens eine Stunde dauert.

Pros:

Location is absolutely stunning!
The stuff was as welcoming as one can be 😁

Cons:

Last 5 km on the gravel road was brutal. We were riding on motorbike and the weather was BAD, super slippery and muddy. I hope they will fix the road soon to make the spot more accessible

Отель напоминает турбазу
Pros:

Отель расположен в самой низкой точке каньона Тары, в окружении огромных величественных гор, на берегу горной реки. Тихое, красивое место.
Ремонт с претензией на стиль, хотя в целом аскетично.
Однозначно понравилась еда в ресторане и душевное обслуживание. На ужин брали баранину и форель. Очень вкусно. Завтрак готовят персонально, что пожелаете. Спасибо бармену за заботливое отношение!Вообще, персонал очень старается.

Cons:

До отеля сложно добраться, еще сложнее выбраться. Дорога - крутой серпантин, гравий. Но главное, ее ремонтируют, работает техника. Хорошо, мы арендовали тигуан, он справился, но нервы пришлось потрепать.
Еще проблема: плохая шумоизоляция. Слышен каждый чих соседей. В 6 утра над нами стали двигать мебель!
Нам нужен был отель, чтобы отдохнуть ночь. В итоге, выехали уставшими.

Pros:

Location is amazing, be it remote.
The condition of the road should be mentioned prior to booking, not after.
Restaurant is exquisite, great food, great wine, wonderful staff!

Cons:

There were roadworks which implied limited access to the hotel (at 9 am, 2pm and after 5pm) which messed with my planning.
Although this is in no way a negative reflection of the hotel and staff itself.

Parking is rather limited though.

Absolute Naturidylle! Perfekter Ort zur Erholung !
Pros:

Natur Pur, direkt am Fluss. Super freundliches Personal. Gutes Frühstück und Abendessen. Es werden verschiedene Aktivitäten angeboten.

Cons:

Der schwierige Anfahrtsweg. Aber das wussten wir vorher. Das Hotel hat uns im Vorfeld darüber informiert. Die Straße wird gerade gebaut. Somit ist die Anfahrt demnächst unproblematisch.
Die Zimmer sind etwas hellhörig.

Cons:

Access to hotel is through a very long bumpy road. Nothing to do once you are there besides relaxing in the outdoor chillout which is quite dirty

Mooie, rustige locatie met vriendelijk personeel
Pros:

De ligging is echt fantastisch, vriendelijke mensen en erg behulpzaam. Tijdens ons verblijf was de weg nog niet af, maar de eigenaar heeft ons enorm geholpen.

Pros:

Bel endroit mais extrêmement difficile d accès car la route est défoncée.
Aucune randonnée à faire une fois qu une vous êtes dans le canyon.
La réception ne vous donne aucune information de loisir.
Pas assez d endroit aménagé pour ce détendre quand il y'a beaucoup de clients.
La nourriture est très bonne.
Petit déjeuner correct aussi.

Cons:

Les employés ne sont vraiment pas agréables

מקום חלומי וכבר מחכה לחלום הבא💗
Pros:

המקום קסום, חלומי פיסה מגן עדן!
נמצא בלב שמורת הדורימיטור ממוקם על הנהר מרהיב ביופיו!
בעל המקום-דרקו איש חם, לבבי ואדיב ושרה מנהלת הקבלה מקסימה ואדיבה!
אנחנו נחזור למקום הקסום!

Cons:

יש כרגע בעיה קלה עם הכביש גישה לדעתי הוא מתאים רק לרכבים 4/4 אבל אני מבינה שעובדים כרגע על הכביש והכל יהיה בסדר

The location is very beautiful but the service is far from expectations generated by booking / hotel
Pros:

The location of the hotel is very beautiful

Cons:

The hotel as several problems:
(1) the access to hotel is very rough road. It is not gravel, is off road. The hotel was not honest and transparent explaining us
(2) the rooms are very small for price
(3) Due to access and restaurant not adequate for families with babies
(4) Do not use the agency proposed by the hotel to book activities. It is very expensive. Plan ahead with other agencies locally
(5) The hotel used our family pictures in Instagram without permission which is a personal data breach
