The hotel offers stunning views of the mountains and is located in a peaceful setting near a lake, providing a relaxing escape. While the breakfast was truly exceptional and the newly upgraded spa facilities enhanced the experience, the older decor in some areas and thin walls detracted from the overall comfort. The staff provided friendly service; however, some aspects of housekeeping could be improved.
