Hotel impeccabile ed ottimo il rapporto qualità/prezzo. Camere spaziose, pulite e curate nei dettagli. Letto matrimoniale estremamente comodo. Bagno ampio, di design. Wi-Fi in camera eccellente e vasta scelta di canali tv anche italiani (reti Raine Mediaset). Parcheggio facile e gratuito. Ottima la colazione. Completa la struttura un ristorante a piano terra che non ho provato ma presumo sia molto valido. Eccellente nel complesso

Die Rezeption ist um 18Uhr schon geschlossen, nicht wie angegeben um 21Uhr, hinein kommt man dann nur wenn man zuvor Einlasscode erhalten hat, dann checkin am Automat, dabei erhält man keinen gescheiten Beleg/Rechnung was für Businesskunden wichtig wäre, die Junior-Suite hat eine rollbare "Miniküche", das FrühstückBüffet ist eingeschränkt , positiv ist kostenfrei parken

Sehr freundlicher Empfang. Die Zimmer sind individuell gestaltet. Shops und Restaurants in unmittelbarer Nähe. Kurz gesagt: ein erholsamer und inspirierender Aufenthalt.

Great value, compared to prices in Lausanne. Transit was great, close to grocery stores. Dinner at 5:30 pm was not possible. Fridge wasn't very cold, room was warm (fan but no air conditioning). Staff were friendly and helpful (especially answering TONS of questions by email before my trip).
