Fantastic stay will visit again!!

A wonderful stay at hotel Alpenrose. We shall definitely visit again. The setting is idyllic, the hotel is comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was simple but nice. Only thing to be improved was the mattress (which may just not have been to our preference) and we would have preferred more pillows. Overall a lovely stay and highly recommended!!
