Comment: This was our first skiing holiday, so didn’t really know what to expect.
We found the hotel to be warm and welcoming, when we first arrived in the early hours of the morning, they had put us a "packed lunch" together as we had missed our dinner. We were directed to our rooms, which we were pleased to see had great balconies overlooking the courtyard. The rooms themselves were spacious and comfy with modern clean bathroom facilities.
We went half board and found that the breakfast buffet was nice, with a varied choice, the dinner was also varied, and we were grateful for the warm food after a day on the slopes.
The facilities were also modern, clean and well kept, we used the big heated swimming pool often as well as the sauna and steam room. The hotel also has a bowling alley attached.
Across the road there’s a great "pub" if you want to watch sport and the food looked good, we found the drinks to be quite expensive in here. There is also a great Italian restaurant opposite the entrance to the hotel. Downhill there is a great Karaoke bar if you’re looking for a laugh. Going uphill towards the gondola station there is an ice ring and shops and restaurants, we found the furtherer away from the gondola station you went the cheaper the shops became. I would recommend wearing sturdy walking boots when exploring or walking to the slopes, the pavements are kept free of snow and ice but are wet and very uneven; I experienced this first hand when I hurt my ankle badly when I stood in a pothole while walking in the evening. The bar/nightclub outside the gondola station is a great place to drink, our favorite was the 10 pints of beer and a kg of chips package!
We loved the location of this hotel it’s a very short walk (uphill) to the Gondola station and surrounded by some great bars. The hotel is well kept and a nice stay. All reviews
