I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were fabulous, very spacious with a wonderful lake view, but I was a bit bothered around midnight at the noise coming from the next room. The service was impeccable, especially thanks to Jose Gil, the Chef Concierge. The location is excellent, right next to the lake and within walking distance of the main train station, making it easy to explore the area. The dining experience was beyond reproach, with rich and diverse options delivered promptly. Overall, a great hotel deserving of its high rating.

I had a great stay at the hotel, with amazing lake and mountain views from my room. The room was comfortable, and being on a far corner of the hotel provided some privacy. However, there were a few issues with dinner reservations, but the service was generally professional and attentive. The location was perfect for exploring the city and enjoying the beautiful surroundings, overlooking the lake and with the Alps in the distance. The dining experience was a bit overpriced, but the food quality made up for it. Overall, a nice hotel with some room for improvement.

The hotel provided us with rooms that were more spacious than the average hotel room, offering a better view of the lake and mountains. However, the room was a bit basic compared to the rest of the hotel. The service was somewhat absent during our 3-day stay, with occasional mishaps. The location, though busy, was unforgettable, directly across from the lake and near key attractions. Dining options were fantastic, especially at MP's, and facilities met our needs with excellence.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean, and we even received a delightful upgrade.

The service here was top-notch; the staff were polished, professional, and ensured we had a truly 5-star experience. Although some were a bit superior in their attitude, the team was apologetic about any unfriendliness, reassuring me that it was not typical behavior. They were attentive, friendly, and possessed excellent English language skills.
