Pros:

Výborný hotel s přímým vstupem do lázní, možno využít i spa v hotelu, kde bylo méně lidí v sauně. Výborné snídaně i večeře. Možnost parkování zdarma v garážích. 2min chůze na zastávku, případně možnost shuttlebusu.

Cons:

Vše bylo v němčině, jak info na pokoji tak menu večeře. Angličtina by by lepší :-)

Nach diesem Beschwerdemanagement werden wir leider nicht mehr kommen.
Cons:

Am Tag vor der Abreise ließen wir uns das Essen vom hoteleigenen Restaurant „Zum Goldenen Adler“ auf das Hotelzimmer bringen.Wir hatten 2 halbe Backhendl und ein Kalbsschnitzel bestellt und nicht einmal 15 Minuten später wurde es auch schon gebracht, was uns doch etwas verwunderte.
Das Kalbsschnitzel war soweit in Ordnung, nur das Backhendl war extrem trocken. Da ich sehr müde war und es auch nicht meine Art ist, mich sofort über etwas zu beschweren, aß ich die Hälfte eines halben Backhendls und benötigte dafür 2 Salate, da es doch sehr trocken war. Meine Freundin probierte auch noch 3 Bissen und kam ebenfalls zu dem Schluss, dass es staubtrocken ist und daher kaum zu essen ist. 
Ich nahm das 2. unberührte halbe Backhendl und ging damit ins Restaurant. Der Kellner entschuldigte sich bei mir und sagte mir, er könne das Geld nicht zurückgeben, das könne nur die Hotelchefin. Am nächsten Tag, vor der Abreise, bezahlte ich meine Rechnungen an der Rezeption, die Hotelchefin war ebenfalls anwesend. Ich erzählte auch ihr mein schlechtes kulinarisches Erlebnis.
Die Hotelchefin sagte strikt, „sie haben doch eines gegessen, deshalb bekommen sie auch nur für eines das Geld zurück, das ist nur fair.“  Sie bestritt auch nicht, wenn das zurückgegebene Hendl staubtrocken war, dass das andere auch staubtrocken sein musste. Nur dieses hatte ich kulanterweise fast aufgegessen. 
Keine Entschuldigung oder ein Wort des Bedauerns seitens der Hotelbesitzerin, auch ein "ich hoffe sie hatten trotzdem einen schönen Aufenthalt" hätte geholfen. Stattdessen fühlte ich mich, als würde ich eine Schadensmeldung bei einer Versicherung einreichen.Ein professionelles Beschwerdemanagement von der Hotelbesitzerin hätte ich in einem 4-Sterne-Superior-Hotel doch erwarten können. Es ging mir grundsätzlich nicht um die Rückerstattung der Rechnung, deshalb bezahlte ich das komplette Essen und ging.

Pros:

Private lift to the slopes!
Fantastic food and outstanding staff. Great service.
Every day the dinner was structured differently but every time there was a 3-4 course menu served at the table - fantastic.
Well-priced wine list.
Spa - both the hotel's spa and Alpentherme.

Cons:

Parking was dreadful - impossible to find, then full - we had to park a solid walk away, they should really explain how parking works better at check in.
We were not placed in the main building and it was quite a walk to get to the restaurant through the passages between 3 buildings. Alpentherme was a 10 mins walk from our room.
The rooms are a bit dated, squeaky floors. No Airco, and many people smoking outside of our room on the square.
