Traditionally stylish hotel, but not exactly quiet.
The three of us stayed in two rooms over X-mas.
Pros:
- Very stylish, beautiful hotel (charming bathrooms, beautiful furniture, old-time elevator, beautiful building)
- Great staff, super helpful, very friendly
- Outstanding and moderately priced breakfast buffet
Cons:
- Loud: We were on the first floor and could hear loud music from the bar / restaurant below every night. They do make sure to stop around midnight, but in my view if you pay top $$$ for a room, it shouldn't be shaking with the booming of a live band for six hours.
- Loud: The hotel is opposite the train station and that makes the whole place feel very busy. There are always people outside, tons of skiers walking around in ski boots, trucks stopping in front of the hotel, etc. If you're looking for a quiet and peaceful stay, this is not for you.
- Space: This hotel practices space optimization just like most places in this area do. The twin beds in a twin room are not really twin beds but more like two thirds of twin beds. Storage is EXTREMELY limited, you will probably be living out of your open suitcase. The closets could just as well have been painted on the wall. They are maybe 20cms deep, you can maybe stack some socks in there and hang a single shirt, that's it.
Bottom line: If you're looking to party, don't have too much stuff and are looking mainly for old school charm and style, this is probably for you. If you're looking for some peace and quiet and a place to hang your clothes, this is definitely not for you.
