Pros:

Der Spa & Wellness Bereich und das Frühstück-Buffet

Cons:

Die Sprühdüsen auf der Terrasse - im Tessin dürfen Gemüsegärten nicht mehr gegossen werden und gleichzeitig wird Wasser neben einem Pool als Abkühlung verschwendet

Stunning promenade hotel on the Lake.
Pros:

We booked a stunning Junior Suite, which had a little terrace - overlooking the Lake. Just a short step to the lake over the road, which allowed for an early morning swim before breakfast. The jacuzzi and steam rooms were a great addition, and we loved our stay. Good breakfast included.

Cons:

Honestly nothing we didn't like. I think we had a great room and loved it.

Tolle Location, schönes Design, reichhaltiges Frühstück.
Pros:

Sauberkeit und Bettwäsche, bequemes Bett. Reichhaltiges Frühstücksbufffet.

Cons:

Lobby und Restaurant zu warm. Spatzen auf der Terrasse waren mühsam auf den Tischen draussen. Badewanne lief langsam ab. Ich bevorzuge eine Dusche.
