Bell'albergo con panorama spettacolare

Albergo in posizione invidiabile con vista lago e montagne. Personale cordialissimo e disponibilissimo. Abbiamo usufruito anche gratuitamente di upgrade di camera. Colazione buona con scelta di prodotti salati e dolci. Cena super, curata nei dettagli e nella scelta degli ingredienti. Camera spaziosa con balcone con panorama superlativo. Forse per i servizi igienici andava trovata un'altra soluzione, comunque ben tenuti e puliti. Curati gli spazi comuni, piscina e spa. Lo consiglio senz'altro.

Très bon hotel. A conseiller avec du beau temps!

Excellent hotel, avec une superbe plage sur le lac. Deux piscines extérieur. On pourrait regretter les piscines un peu froide (peut-être du au temps très mauvais), l'espace sauna un peu petit et sans serviette disponible. De plus, certaines certaines parties de l'hotel mériteraient d'être mises au gout du jour (salle de bain, bar...) L'atmosphère fait un peu vieillot. Par contre: magnifique terrasse, personnel charmant et très accueillant. Très bon restaurant à la carte

Mooi hotel gelegen aan het meer.

Mooi 4* hotel die ook 4* waard is. Famillieappartement is groot met mooi uitzicht op het meer. Kamers zijn schoon en niets is kapot. Je krijgt badhandoeken voor het zwemmen. Koelkastje op de kamer. Helaas geen airco, dus het was 's-nachts erg warm. Personeel is supervriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ontbijt is erg uitgebreid, er staat zelfs een kok de eieren te bereiden zoals je dat wilt. Zwembad buiten is super, schoon, fris en genoeg ligbedden. De ligbedden bij het meer moet je reserveren en die heb je dan de hele week. Bij het meer is ook een poolbar voor kleine gerechten (tosti, salade etc). Het strandje aan het meer is kleine steentjes en ook in het meer dus je hebt waterschoenen nodig. Welness hebben wij niet gebruikt maar was ook aanwezig bij het strandje (massage). Het enige nadeel wat wij hebben ondervonden, is dat het hotel niet in een dorp ligt of op loopafstand. Voor een restaurant 's-avonds moesten wij altijd de auto nemen. Je kunt in het hotel ook eten, maar dat was voor ons te culinair. In de omgeving zijn heel veel dingen te doen en te zien.
