A great hotel in Crans Montana. Really nice staff. Beautiful Mountain Views. The property has aged but is well taken care of. You can feel the good vibe of a family run business. Would return !

I didn’t like the room at all. It is horrible. The heater in the bathroom where you hang the towels was really dirty . I had to clean it myself to be able to put there a cloth that I washed.
The service of the lady at the breakfast was the only highlight. She smiled at me and was nice.

Crans-Montana Getaway
Overall, it was a good deal and the hotel was typical Swiss experience - clean and well maintained (little aged), but overall good. The restaurant was excellent and we had a great meal there sampling wine. The breakfast was basic continental. They were helpful booking taxis and recommending restaurants. The location is great for the zip line and lower lake experience - about a 20 minute walk to Crans and a bit further to Montana center. Only complaint was the pool - it was not well maintained (cloudy/green) nor heated and they charge you to use. Lastly, we had the family room which was very convenient for a family of 4.

1 night stay in transit
Owners seem to have a kind of suburban attitude to a lifestyle and the hotel itself. Cooked food odours were in the lobby and everywhere. The furniture is old. The whole hotel requires refurbishing.

Lovely
This hotel was lovely. Super helpful staff, clean, comfortable, excellent breakfast, food in the restaurant was delicious and well priced for the area. All the staff were attentive without being over-bearing. Lovely garden and lobby area was very comfortable. The free travel card was excellent, we used it on the local buses and the cable cars. Highly recommend.
