    • Elegant, beautifully furnished interiors. Very welcoming, also for the young children. Great breakfast and afternoon snacks!
    • We were greeted by the most amazing host, after a long journey. The property was simply fantastic, award winning in every way. The interior design was like something out of a design brochure, with very clever and classy injects. The building, facilities and staff are delightful. The food was brilliant, especially the afternoon snacks and the fresh breakfast selections.The suites are immaculate and the housekeeper is extremely precise and hardworking.The owner even provided public transport tickets so you can make the most of the surrounding areas, everything was thought of and provided.I just don’t have enough space for all the amazing things that travellers will experience here. I will make a point of returning and enjoying this again.

    Villa Helvetia has the most friendly staff I met so far. Everyone was nice and helpful. Hotel location is very good, within a few minutes walk from the center. Breakfasts are very good and room was very spacious and comfortable.

    No issues at all, everything was good.

    Our stay at the hotel fell right in time for the hotels birthday: 130 years. The wines, food and consert were exquisite. We are planning to only stay at this hotel whenever we are coming through the area and will recommend it to all our friends.
