We really enjoyed the location of this hotel, central to many restaurants, shopping, pubs and between the 2 main ski lifts. The breakfast offerings were delicious and plentiful and an excellent coffee machine. We enjoyed the mini spa and the ski room downstairs as well.

We found it strange that the property offers a gym but it is a 15 minute walk that needs to be booked 1hour before. Not as convenient as advertised. The restaurant is also in the main entrance so if you’re ok with the smell of fondue cheese then it shouldn’t be a bother. The hotel does smell like fondue cheese throughout because of this. One other thing we found strange was the staff asks you don’t take your room key off property. We were asked to leave the key on a hook in the front lobby (which is right down a hall from the Main Street/next to restaurant). We felt uncomfortable leaving our room key with our room number on it out in the open, especially with no staff at the front desk the whole time.. just seemed risky and not ideal. Room was spacious which was great!

Good location, average property

This is old hotel property so you will feel going back to sixties or way prior. Location is good and so was the breakfast. Beds were comfortable. Don’t expect much but basic ameneties you would expect. We did not try spa area so cannot comment on that.
