Amazing location, great food, the amazing staff !! You always feel like you are at home
Breakfast, location and view.
The hotel is beautiful and cosy, nice sauna, breakfast with extraordinary tea and muesli selection.
The location is a bit far from infrastructures like supermarkets or bakery.... no sun during winter months
Beautiful location with an amazing view from the balcony. The rooms were very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was spotless. I was impressed by how friendly the staff were, as well as the entire family that runs this hotel—they truly love what they do.
There is an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom, but it disappears quickly when you turn on the light and the ventilation starts.
This is a lovely, modern, eco-friendly hotel! Upon arrival we received a warm and friendly welcome from Christian that continued throughout our 3-day stay. We were seeking a place to stay that provided a restful, relaxing atmosphere and that is exactly what we found here. Our second floor room provided a balcony that allowed us to enjoy the magnificent views of the mountain and the crisp autumn air. The walls of the halls are lined with wonderful vintage photos of the hotel, conveying its history of when it was the summer residence of the Vienna Boys Choir. If only the walls could talk - or sing! The food was fresh and delicious, prepared and served with love.
Amazing breakfast spread - hotel owners were very pleasant and helpful. Sauna was amazing.
This is a really great hotel in a beautiful area! The personnel were incredibly sweet and welcoming, creating a lovely family ambiance. The breakfast was delicious, with high-quality products and careful attention to detail. We also enjoyed the dinners and the great drinks available. The bedding was very comfortable, and the view was simply amazing. The sauna area, especially the bio sauna, was a highlight of our stay. We truly loved our experience here.
Nice hotel at the end of a beautiful valley. Clean and well equipped rooms with balcony and view over the valley. The hotel has a very relaxed atmosphere. Tasty breakfast, dinner also has a vegetarian option. Christian and Kinga are amazing hosts!
A hottub or jaccuzi in addition to the sauna and massage would make it perfect!
Everything about the hotel and its concept is amazing. Definitely home away from home!Perfect service, the location is great with a lot of options to hike in the summer, and skiing in the winter
What they do well here: homemade products like muesli and jam for breakfast, nice wooden interiors, cute sauna area. There's a 24-hour self-service area where you can help yourself to coffee/tea, drinks, and snacks on the honor system. The location is beautiful, right at the end of a gorgeous valley and next to the river. The rooms are simple but nicely decorated.
We had to check out early because I got sick. We had paid in advance, but the owner said there was a problem connecting to the Booking payment service. He said he would need a credit card. I asked him what he was going to charge, and only then did he show me the full amount for the room I had already paid for, plus all the extras. I informed him that I had already paid; he said the payment service wasn't working, therefore he would need to charge me again. I asked politely if this wasn't a problem between the hotel and Booking, whereupon he answered quite rudely: "No. It's not our problem. It's not fair."This meant that I had to call Booking and clear up the problem myself while he just stood there. The money had of course already been transferred, and Booking's customer service called the hotel owner to confirm this fact. There was no gesture of apology, just a muttered "sorry." A little gesture, like waiving the price of a bottle of wine or even a single cup of tea, would have gone a long way.This was unfortunately not the only incident that made us feel unwelcome. We were there with friends, and each time we sat down to breakfast, it seemed we were at the wrong table. We were told in gruff tones: "that's a table for 5" when there were 4 of us. Another time: "that's not a breakfast table."We are both lactose- and gluten-intolerant, and we notified the property of this in advance and asked whether they would be able to accommodate us. They said they would. At breakfast, we heard one of the owners complaining to her family about all these people with special dietary requests. We also found out only on the 2nd day that the vegan milk she had provided the day before was made of spelt, which is not gluten-free. Luckily we are not celiac, only intolerant, otherwise this could have had serious consequences.I wish I could write a better review.
Beautiful, eco-friendly place surrounded by mountains with sauna and great food.
beautiful location close to great walks. we enjoyed our stay , the hosts were friendly and helpful, the room was beautiful ( we had an upper floor looking both north and west, with a little balcony to enjoy it from).food was delicious. honor system for drinks was wonderful! excellent coffee machine in breakfast area. loved our stay. thanks!
all perfect
The location was beautiful and the breakfast was great. The sauna inside the hotel was also a lovely addition, offering a perfect way to relax after a long walk in the mountains
The owners and staff are so great, the open philosophy with the drinks, coffee machine and sauna is great, and the homemade dinners were so good. So kind people that the experience is almost like staying with good friends. And the spot is simply incredible, a lot of great wandering routes at hand, or a lot of activities in maximum 15 minutes with auto/bus.
The wifi of the hotel could be better, and for some people the closed menus of the dinners could be a bit off putting.
Amazing location, the beautiful nature around, friendly staff. As it was my wife's birthday they organized a little surprise and cake for her. Excellent customer experience, would love to go back to them!
when we leftnature around
one only meal at dinner + vegetarian option, but even if BIO then fried, not sure.. double minusand above our stay didn't feel very private not many options (like none) around for food
Everything about our stay was Top. The staff is heaps friendly and welcoming. Facilities are super! Great Sauna in-house. Food is fresh, wholesome and quality can be felt in the taste. Location is beautiful.Our stay there was amazing and can definitely recommend.
