Impeccably-run hotel. The chef and dining room serve very fine if rich cuisine. Daily activities and shuttle make even a cold winter stay an eventful experience. The lobby, bar, and restaurant are traditional yet luxurious, while the rooms rather quaint. Large grounds, presumably gardens in warmer times. Town cafes, apotheke, ATM, ski shop within a minute's walk.

But apart from that, this was the perfect place to relax, unwin...
