Sehr gutes Frühstück. Freundliche, zuvorkommende Mitarbeiter und Gastgeber. Auch der Hund wurde wie ein Gast behandelt mit Wasser, Leckerchen und Decke. Die Einrichtung ist suber, und spartan. Wenn es im Zimmer für 3 Personen auch 3 Sitzgelegenheiten hätte, wäre das super. Ebenso ist das Licht für düstere Tage im Zimmer zu schlummrig gewählt. Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis ist jedoch sehr gut.

Très bon séjour!

Très bon séjour, chambres propres, très spacieuses. Petit déjeuner complet, restaurant vraiment agréable, service sympa. Nous aurions apprécié avoir 1-2 options de repas moins "élaborés" pour les petits enfants, qui sont sortis de table en ayant faim car n'ayant pas vraiment mangé. Mais pour les autres la cuisine était délicieuse! Merci

Ohne Sommerhitze wäre alles bestens

Das Hotel hat eine sehr gute Lage und wir waren insgesamt sehr zufrieden. Insbesondere das sehr reichhaltige Frühstück wusste zu überzeugen. Das Zimmer war auch schön. Einziges Manko war, dass wir die Fenster in unserem Zimmer nicht komplett verdunkeln und das Zimmer bei der grossen Aussenhitze auch nicht richtig herunterkühlen konnten.
