Algumas atividades, como massagens e banho nórdico poderia ser feito extra estadia de hotel.
Pros:

A simpatia e as boas vindas aos hóspedes foram incríveis.

Cons:

De não ter feito o banho nórdico, queria muito fazer, mas não tive tempo.

Experiência inesquecível! As crianças amaram! Voltaremos mais vezes! E o SKi é incrível.
Pros:

A localização. O lugar é incrível. Muita neve. A paisagem magnífica.

A estrutura é maravilhosa.

Cons:

Só não fui avisada com antecedência do horário de utilização da piscina por minhas filhas que são menores.
O que gerou certo desconforto.

Foi tudo perfeito! Experiência que vai ficar na memoria.
Pros:

Refeições ótimas, decoração linda e espaços muito confortáveis. Adorámos as experiências que nos proporcionaram, a visita à fábrica da Burel e uma caminhada pela serra com um guia local. Funcionários muito atenciosos.

Cons:

Não tenho nada a apontar, salvo já não termos tido vaga para uma massagem a dois. As massagens têm de ser marcadas com alguma antecedência.

Maravilhoso
Pros:

Simplesmente maravilhoso, pequeno, singular. Restaurante excelente; vista linda. Pode ficar que você vai gostar.

Cons:

Nessa última estadia ficamos na suite maior, mas achei pior do que o quarto menor. O banheiro é muito apertado, meio claustrofóbico, e o quarto tem muito cheiro de madeira.
