Staff were very helpful, particularly Ghirlaine and Phillip. Wheelchair access was a bit difficult because of the age of the property. One of the “Grandes dames” hotels of the world.

Verified traveller

Over priced for an outdated lobby and uncomfortabl
No one helped me with my suitcases up and down the stairs, which consisted of 10 steps in and out of the lobby. Upon entering the lobby, I was shocked by the appearance. I felt as if I was walking into a three star hotel it was dark and dated, and the reception desk looked like the reception desk of a three star hotel, very uninviting and not welcoming at all. All the pros of my stay were the customer service from the front desk staff when I checked in. and the size of my room which was a junior suite with a balcony was a nice. The AC did not work well and the bed was very very hard with no sheet or blanket. Just a heavy comforter I had a terrible night sleep but the room was a very hot with not proper bedding. I also went to enjoy the sauna and came out with no availability of water, so that was quite frustrating to be hot and thirsty, and have no water provided at all in the sauna area. I felt that for the price I paid it was very much an overpriced room.

Amazing Hotel with great facilities and wonderful staff. Service absolutely spot-on and everything worked well. Excellent position is Switzerland's best resort.
Oh what a tangle. One would have hoped that a 5* hotel would have sorted out the electrics and have plenty of Euro / Swiss and USB outlets in every room.
