Sehr schönes Hotel in ausgezeichneter Lage.
Pros:

Zimmer mit Bergblick war geräumig, die kleine Minibar war inklusive und wurde einmal aufgefüllt, Bad war ok, Frühstück war ausgezeichnet, eigentlich auf dem Niveau eines 5 Sterne Hotels. Lage am See ist ohnehin fantastisch, man erhielt zudem beim Check-in einen Touristen Pass, mit dem man den ÖPNV kostenlos nutzen konnte inkl. einer Fähre über den See und weiterern Vergünstigungen für Museen etc.. Insgesamt ist das Hotel sehr zu empfehlen.

Cons:

Kleinigkeiten wie z.B. dass der Fernseher klein und ein bisschen unvorteilhaft platziert war (für uns egal, da wir ihn nicht genutzt haben), außerdem hatte das Bad eine Badewanne, meine persönliche Präferenz wäre eine Duschkabine gewesen. Wir hätten uns gefreut, den Parkplatz noch etwas länger als bis nach dem Check-out nutzen zu dürfen, aber da war der Desk Manager strikt.

Schöne Tage in einem gepflegtem Hotel
Pros:

Die Lage und die schöne Suite mit direktem Seeblick. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig und gut. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und nett. Das Essen im Restaurant war sehr gut

Cons:

Der Fernseher in der Suite im Schlafzimmer wieso nicht bei der Polstergruppe. Das Essen in der Pizzaria war schlecht.Es ist schade, dass das Personal an Rezeption nicht besser deutsch spricht, die Verständigung war mühsam.
