This was a magnificent stay - it was a little dated in decor (as you might expect from a swiss chalet, but not tired, well kept, and the most magnificent staff, that were very homely in the sense of friendly like good family.

The unit is well equipped, large, comfy bed with little balcony. There is a spa which was most welcome at the end of a day of sightseeing. Phil and Maureen were very helpful with... More

The rooms (whilst an older style) had plenty of space to move and were very well maintained daily.The bed was really comfortable, the lounge-dining area... More
