Pros:

Praticamente tutto

Cons:

Un po’ un casino a colazione visto che tutti i tavolini erano stati uniti per la presenza di una comitiva e non si capiva davvero dove si poteva sedersi (sala vuota). Ci hanno chiesto di spostarci due volte, poi hanno cambiato idea… la cosa è stata gestita male perché ogni cameriere aveva un’idea diversa. Nulla di grave comunque, visto che ho dato una valutazione molto alta.

Pros:

We really enjoyed the hotel. The staff in particular were very friendly and the hotel was clean with a very well looked after swimming pool. The views from our room were amazing also as the hotel is up a bit of a hill. There is also more thank enough parking available. Would definitely visit again. Big thank you to all the staff who gave my wife a bottle of wine for her birthday also

Lage Top aber nicht mehr ganz auf dem neuesten Stand
Pros:

Die Lage ist natürlich top. Trotz der erhöhten Lage, ist man in rund 10min am See.

Cons:

Das Hotel hat sicher die besten Zeiten ein wenig hinter sich und sollte wieder mal ein wenig moderner umgebaut werden.

Pros:

Sehr gepflegter Garten. Der Pool hat eine fantastische Wärme für diese Jahreszeit.

Cons:

Das man kein Rücksicht nimmt beim Laubbläser. Wir liegen unten auf dem Liegestuhl und der Mitarbeiter bläst das ganze Laub auf uns runter.

sehr gut, wir kommen wieder und empfehlen es weiter
Pros:

Frühstück ausgezeichnet - Lage einmalig! Hat uns sehr gut gefallen.

Cons:

Balkone: diese müssten dringend überholt werden - die Abgrenzungen zu den anderen Zimmer sind rostig und der Lack splittert ab. Für ein 4-Sterne Hotel, bei dem alles anderer perfekt ist, entspringt dies nicht dem Standard.

Mit schlecht, aber nie wieder. Das Preis - Leistungsverhältnis war nicht gut.
Pros:

Frühstück entsprach einem 3 - Sterne Hotel, in Bezug auf Reichhaltigkeit.

Cons:

Es war alles sehr provinziell, man lebt offenbar nur von dem Flair vergangener Jahrzehnte.
