What a lovely friendly family hotel! Just what we wanted. Sara spoke English and helped with trips and local good restaurants. The rooms were spotless and breakfast was good. We were always asking for advice and never once did she let us down! The glasses of wine on the small terrace were often accompanied by bread and cheese. There is... more

Having escaped from a rather unpleasant experience in a nearby hotel we were welcomed with open arms by Sara and her family. We had two rooms as singles - one had a balcony with a view of the lake and mountains in the distance. Both rooms were very clean and comfortable - but with quite a bit of noise from... more

The front of the hotel is quite pretty on approach and has a grand looking entrance which is welcoming. The staff were very approachable and... more
