Een fantastisch sfeervol hotel met heerlijk eten en aardig personeel.
Pros:

De ouderwetse sweren en hoeveel karakter het gebouw en de kamers hadden, echt een fijne sfeer! Ook het eten was heerlijk met allemaak lokale producten en de faciliteiten waren modern en schoon! Het was mijn favoriete hotel van mijn reis!

Cons:

Het bed was iets te kort en er zat geen slot op de deur, dat was verder geen probleem omdat het een erg vertrouwelijke omgeving was en als je waardevolle spullen mee had kon je ze opbergen in een kluis

Lovely nostalgia hotel with mountain views
Pros:

The location is excellent, above the Kiental valley and reachable by the steepest PostBus ever at a 28deg incline. The views are majestic and the rooms are simple, clean and delivering indeed a nostalgic experience. There is a feeling of familiarity with the staff, they are super kind and friendly. Dinner was delicious and the choices for breakfast are great to start a hiking day, which you can start right in front of the hotel.

Cons:

The stairs are a bit squeaky and you can hear your neighbors through the doors. But these are minor - the place is absolutely amazing if you are looking for a base to start hiking or want to spend a weekend away from the city.
