Posizione comoda,stanza bellissima e spaziosa ma all'arrivo la receptionist si è evidentemente sfastidiata perché non parlavamo correttamente l'inglese e la camera era freddissima e siccome era molto grande ha impiegato quasi tutta la notte per riscaldarsi,, avrei voluto fare un bagno ma l'ambiente era ghiacciato. Il personale a colazione e al check out, invece , è stato molto cordiale.

La chambre etait très bien, mais la douche fuyait et donc j'ai été obligée d'utiliser des serviettes pour éviter de marcher dans l'eau et glisser. J'ai aussi trouvé que la lumière dans la partie salle de bain était assez aggressive. Le personnel a été très aidant.

Lovely spot, with view over the Lake. Large clean rooms, modern design, but very Spartan. We arrived late and in room snacks were non-existent. Restaurant closed at 10pm. Too few electric outlets, and it would have helped to have a night light by the bathroom, which was internal and difficult to navigate in the dark.

Good for business travelers

Needed a point on Lake Geneva fairly central- easy to get to Geneva, Annecy, Mont Blanc, Montreaux and Lausanne. Easy access to autobahn- within 5 minute drive. No road noise. Heavy residential area. 2 good restaurants down by the lake. Ask for a room on the Lake view side. A/C in room - yes- not very cold. Hanging rod and open shelf is it for the closet- no drawers. Would recommend for business travelers. Good staff and hotel restaurant provides a nice breakfast and varied dinner menu weeknights.

Die Junior-Suite hatte für unseren Aufenthalt eine perfekte Grösse und war sehe schön eingerichtet. Schade, dass es auf dem Sitzplatz nur 1 Stuhl hatte. Wir konnten ohne Aufpreis den Checkout auf 15Uhr verschieben. Dank dem integrierten ÖV-Ticket haben wir die ÖV genutzt - Haltestellen direkt beim Hotel. Ich hatte angefragt für ein früheres Frühstück (da Wettkampf) und da kam man uns gar nicht entgegen. Das fand ich etwas schade. Alles andere hat mich begeistert.
