👍👍👍
Pros:

Sehr sauber, sehr freundliches Personal, tolles Frühstück (ausgenommen der Kaffee), super Hallenbad, sehr großzügige Räumlichkeiten

Cons:

Der Kaffee ist wirklich nicht gut, liegt wahrscheinlich an der Einstellung der Maschinen.

Pros:

Alles top. Sehr gutes Essen, großes Zimmer, gut ausgestattet, nichts zu bemängeln.

Cons:

Staub hinter der Tür und auf dem kleinen Spiegel im Badezimmer, wenn man ganz „picky“ ist, aber sonst alles top! Nichts zu beanstanden.

Schönes Hotel, eher ruhig gelegen (Auto erforderlich), tolles SPA/Pool
Pros:

Zimmer: sauber, alles in Ordnung, schöner Ausblick auf die Berge
Lage: Eher abgelegen, also um sich fortzubewegen benötigt man unbedingt ein Auto - dafür aber ruhige Lage u. angenehm zum entspannen
Frühstück: Auswahl groß und gut, aber leider viele Speisen u. Getränke (Eier, Teewasser, etc.) meist kalt/lauwarm
trotz mehrmaliger Nachfrage wurde das mit dem Teewasser u. den Eiern nicht besser, schade.
SPA/Pool Bereich: Sehr groß und gut gepflegt - sehr schön

Cons:

Frühstück - leider viele Speisen u. Getränke (Eier, Teewasser, etc.) meist kalt/lauwarm
trotz mehrmaliger Nachfrage wurde das mit dem Teewasser u. den Eiern nicht besser, schade.

Der Preis ist wegen der Ausstattung und Essen des Hotels zu hoch.
Cons:

Das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen und sollte dringend renoviert werden.
Essen (durchschnittlich, nichts Besonderes) gibt es nur vom Buffet (Frühstück und Abend)

Tolle Unterkunft - prachtvolle Kulisse - und sehr schöne Atmosphäre
Pros:

Das Gesamtpaket war ausgezeichnet und wir sind froh, dass wir Halbpension buchten. Vielfach wird gesagt, dass ein (Abend)buffet kaum gute Qualität hervorbringt - hier gilt diese These nicht. Allen Unkenrufen zum Trotz - es war hervorragend. Auch das Bad mit seiner Saunalandschaft ist einem Top-Zustand. Joseph lässt grüßen. Wir werden nächsten Jahr sicher wiederkommen, denn dieser Mix aus toller Unterkunft, Freizeitmöglichkeiten und Landschaft ist für uns genau das Richtige!!

Cons:

Manche Gäste, die einfach nur nörgeln..- lach-
