Très bien accueilli personnel aimable , cependant il faut juste noter que les femmes de ménage des chambres ne m'ont pas changé 1 seule fois les serviettes sur 4 nuits passées , je trouve là un peu exagéré sur le plan de l'hygiène par soucis d'économies et écologie peut-être (?)

Ambiance cocooning et reposante. Hotel extra

J'ai apprécié la possibilité de prendre une douche et de pouvoir me changer avant de partir. Possibilité de consigne à bagages. Parking privé. Déco de l'hôtel : ambiance chaleureuse et reposante. Personnel : accueillant, serviable, a l'écoute, agréable, disponible

une belle rénovation

Séjour de 2 nuits en chambre quadruple - chambre confortable malgré sa taille réduite. La SDB est fonctionnelle et agréable, la literie aussi. Le seul reproche concerne l'isolation avec un peu de bruit du à la rue et aux portes des chambres. Accueil et service efficaces et agréable, le bar et le restaurant sont des valeurs sures dans la station. La localisation est le GROS PLUS.

hôtel accueillant aux pieds des pistes

Hôtel rénové accueillant, aux pieds des pistes, au calme. Le personnel est très agréable et très disponible. Les chambres sont confortables avec une bonne literie. La restauration avec ses spécialités montagnardes est très correcte. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la gentillesse du personnel, les équipements de l'hôtel (les casiers à ski, le chauffe-chaussures),la proximité des locations de skis et les caisses de ski-pass, le départ vers les pistes et l'arrivée des pistes skis aux pieds. Un vrai bonheur !!! je recommande cet hôtel.
