We stayed only one night, but the location was excellent— quiet and within easy reach of the centre. It’s a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute drive. The staff were kind and helpful. The room was cozy and very clean. The hotel itself and the garden are very well maintained. Breakfast was just enough to get you on your feet for the day. We would stay here anytime. + We really liked all the paintings, especially the big one in the room.

The hotel made an excellent first impression with its beautiful, well-maintained appearance. Julie at the front desk was exceptionally helpful during check-in and provided plenty of useful information. The entire property was so clean and well cared for that it felt new. Our room was comfortable and offered a wonderful mountain view, and the bed was especially comfortable. Breakfast included a good variety of hot and cold options, served in a cozy dining area with real coffee cups, silverware, and plates—no plastic or paper. The hotel is also within walking distance of the town center, making it a convenient and welcoming place to stay. We would gladly return.
