The spacious rooms with direct views were a definite highlight, providing a warm feeling of wanting to stay forever. Although the service was mostly commendable, I did experience one unpleasant encounter at the bar. Overall, the dining options were fantastic with a lovely variety, but it’s worth noting that the dessert menu could use some improvement.

Overall, my experience at the hotel was quite mixed. While I was many beautiful features, such as the stunning views of the Matterhorn and the elegant room design, I faced significant issues with service and dining that left a sour taste. The location is excellent for skiing right in and out, but the unprofessional behavior of some staff and the uninspired dining options weigh heavily on my overall impression. I would consider returning if improvements are made.
