First class breakfast. Cleanest motel I've ever stayed in, seriously. Very Friendly Staff. Magnificent Views. The decor has got to be seen to be believed. It's like staying inside a giant Cuckoo Clock. I loved it!

Lodge: 1) I love the whole lodge including the rooms and the lounge area. It's not comfortable and warm. Rooms: 1) The room were well heated during the winter and I love the balcony. Everything is clean and beautiful! Breakfast: 1) The stay included complimentary breakfast and it's a wide spread with delicious food Location: 1) A distance from the chairlift but walk-able and beautiful sight along the way.

I liked its rustic and authentic feel! Not a place for those that prefer something ‘modern’ but cosy, warm, friendly and just what’s needed after a long day on the slopes!

The staff were not helpful we had a complaint about food (microwaved pasta for over $30) to which the owner turned his back and walked away followed by attitude for the rest of our stay.
The hotel was very comfortable and clean

“At this price per night I cannot recommend to anyone.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 6 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Room for two was tiny - so small it was uncomfortable and couldn't relax as there was no where to move other than on your bed or in the shower. The pictures on the internet site showcases the rooms in a much different light and size. It is antiquated, tired looking and in desparate need of an internal face lift. It's functional and ski inn ski out position on the mountain is great. But it lacked comfort, brightness and space. I would expect to have found this in the 60s to be acceptable especially with all the trinkets in the lodge.
The cleaner was perfect and extremely professional.

beds were hard and uncomfortable. Unclear where dinner was, poor introduction to the lodge (downstairs dining room from stairs in drying room). minimal pillows - 4 thin pillows in a family room for 4 people. Expensive. Difficult to get to as a down hill skier.
pretty location at the top of the village. free tea and instant coffee in lounge, hot tub under the trees. great fireplace in the lounge
