This place is pretty average but very clean and a big room. The staff was really nice- Everyone was helpful. The bar and the restaurant had phenomenal food, but the amenities weren’t that great. What they consider a hot tub/whirlpool was luke warm (seriously barely warm).. and the outdoor pool during a cold season was also luke warm; if that.

Beautiful hotel with outstanding service!

The Strandhotel Belvedere is truly amazing! I arrived early yesterday, and was warmly greeted by Carolina, whose customer service was outstanding. I was able to check in earlier than expected, and am so happy at this hotel. They have a gorgeous view at ‘Captains Bar’ where I received a complimentary desert and coffee. The wellness area is gorgeous! And then, I had dinner last night at their restaurant. It was truly one of the best meals of my life, and the service I received from Dominique was also outstanding. She and the other server were amazing, and made my dinner experience so special. I cannot wait to return to this beautiful hotel!

Very lovely stay. Beautiful views of the lake. Room was large and very comfortable with a full size tub for soaking after hikes all day. The trek to the train station from the hotel is uphill but manageable. Food at restaurant was average.

Overall a beautiful place and definitely worth the cost. The grounds are beautiful and you have a private area by the lake which is nice along with a beautiful view on the rooftop. The only cons is the beds don’t have real mattresses which make it uncomfortable to sleep and the pillows go flat. Also, we had breakfast twice and the first morning the woman was nice. The second morning I found the other woman to be a bit rude. Lastly, at check in the explain how to get to the private area by the lake. The directions were inaccurate and we found ourselves having to ask 3 times which seemed to annoy them. We finally just asked a grounds keeper who gave better directions than the staff at the desk! You have to go down 7 flights of stairs! Maybe they should consider giving a map to non locals.

I booked an airconditioned room but was given a room at check in which was really hot and I did not feel any aircon. Reception said they will get someone to check on the aircon and only when I asked again was told the room actually has no aircon as not all rooms in that category has aircon. My booking clearly states there is aircon and my specific request was a room with fully controllable aircon on high floor. Thereafter, I was given a low floor room overlooking the car park with aircon. Anyway, I was happy with the aircon as the heat was unbearable. Thought this could have been handled better especially at that price point. This hotel is not really ideal for those who don’t drive as the bus to the train station is only once every hour and there are no shops except at the train station. On the positive side, Jerome, who drove us from the train station, was friendly and professional.
