I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms offered a lovely view out to the Alps, but unfortunately, it was not possible to open the windows. The staff exceeded all my expectations with their friendliness and great service. The location was perfect, right at the center of town, making it easy to access everything. The dining experience had more options available, and the facilities were top-notch. The price was fair for what was provided.
