Enjoyable stay

Great hotel generally, and this was our second stay. Service was generally good and the staff work hard. The only exception was when we ate at the hotel in the evening. Limited options for families/children and waiting staff stuck us in the opposite corner of the restaurant and made clear their displeasure at our attendance close to closing time.

Nice hotel location. Nice breakfast and common facilities. Rooms quite old. Our AC was not working. We booked this hotel mainly as it said in the description of amenities that it had a pool and sauna. To our surprise we found out that it was 20 Euros per person to use the sauna for 90 minutes and additional 10 Euros to use the indoor pool. Of course this was a dissapointmemt. If this is the case, I would strongly recommend Orbitz to clearly specify that in the description of the hotel prior to book. We probably might have selected another one.

Hotel is slightly outdated but clean and charming. The location is very nice, walkable distance to the downtown, free parking. Paying extra for using the pool was kind of a surprise but it’s worth it. Breakfast is exceptionally good. Overall we had a pleasant stay.

Lovely hotel, need to be happy to walk far.

The hotel staff were absolutely lovely, happy to help store our bags when we arrived too early to check in, booked us tickets to see the opera in the local castle. Breakfast has a wide range of continental and cooked foods which all tasted amazing. Food and drink from the pool bar is charged to the room which makes things easier. The pool is not supervised and is for age 14+ so it meant no young children screaming or splashing around near us which was a nice surprise. Our room was one of the older style ones which was comfortable but we would have preferred one which has been done up. Each room has a balcony, ours had a lovely Mountain View so used it every night. The only downside of the hotel was the location, about 15min walk into the town which isn’t so bad but is it quite a long uphill walk from the hotel to the station. Hotels.com said that the hotel offers a transfer service from the airport which we planned to use until we tried to book it and the hotel told us all it is is that they will book us a €80 taxi so not the free service we assumed. Ended up using public transport which was tons cheaper. We found ferry to be the best way to travel round the lake.

Dissatisfaction

The hotel is 4 stars but not very well maintained. No hot water on day 1, fixed. On the 2nd day there was no power in the shower, it was fixed, but I did not receive shampoo. We had to request at the reception. On the 3rd day, my Nike T-shirt went missing in my room. The front desk was not very interested in this incident. I was here for the second time, but for the last time.

Nice Hotel - Shame about the noisy Stag parties!

Nice hotel with pool. We didn't use the pool as we were unlucky to have rain. The hotel was full on the night we stayed with several Stag & Hen parties, so was quite noisy even after midnight! Breakfast was extremely busy with the staff finding it difficult to cope with demands for clean tables and replenishing food. Quite a walk into the harbour, but would probably stay again if I visited the area.
