Great value for money and in a very close location for skiers. We were just minutes from the slopes, which made getting out on the mountain so easy. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed to relax and unwind after a day of skiing. Would highly recommend to anyone planning a ski trip — we’ll definitely be back!

The hotel, was wonderful. The staff were really helpful and charismatic, easy check in and out process. The room itself was fantastic, I didn’t know it had a washer/dryer and the dishwasher unit is a god send. Will definitely be back, if you are in a bottom room it can be a little noisy upstairs but that’s to be expected and is out of the hotels control. I had a wonderful time!
