An awesome stay thanks to the great location, spacious room, comfy bed and helpful staff
Pros:

Awesome location, as the name suggests, just a 5 minute walk into town

Cons:

We did feel that breakfast could have started a little earlier for people like us who wanted to hit the slopes. Breakfast was from 8am to 10am. However, staff did provide us with a packaged brekkie (fruit, muesli bars, juices, pastries) which we were very grateful for

A quiet, spacious stay with great value and a warm atmosphere
Pros:

A great stay with a genuinely spacious room — massive, in fact, easily the standout feature. The walk into town was a little longer than staying at its sister hotel The Dairy, but still short and manageable. The atmosphere was warm and social, with guests chatting over breakfast and during the hosted drinks session between 5–6pm. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the value was excellent given the rate included continental breakfast plus free drinks and snacks in the common area. Staff were friendly, responsive, and easy to deal with throughout. The room was completely quiet with no noise at all.

Cons:

Parking is paid and must be booked in advance. If you're driving and don't sort this out ahead of time, you could end up needing to driving the streets looking for a spot and walk back to the hotel.
