    Great hotel, excellent location, delicious food.

    Only the coffee is not so good, not in the hotel and also bad in the thermal. But we see that the coffee is bad in many places, as if Switzerland were not a coffee nation. But of course it's a matter of taste.

    Very good Hotel. Clean, comfortable, quiet rooms, the breakfast was very good, there is a large selection, there is also gluten-free bread. The staff is kind and helpful. The tunnel to the thermal bath is cool. The thermal is very good, big, not so crowded. There are many places for excursions around the hotel. The town has its own tele cabin to the mountain with a nice view. So absolutely recommended, we will return.

    Wonderful hotel if you are considering the thermal bath

    Hotel is a bit inaccessible but free parking is provided. Check in time is a bit late as well. Not many other restaurants available near the area but there’s a nice Italian restaurant around the corner.

    Love the thermal bath that is directly connected to the hotel and the bathrobe/towels/slippers provided for use in the thermal bath. Huge and comfortable rooms as well with a good view at the balcony. Delicious spread for breakfast, especially the fresh honey comb and smoked salmon, and of course their chocolate products.

    The spa is over crowded, and the cafeteria should probably be connected with the spa bracelet to pay for things vs having to go to my room to go get my wallet

    It is exactly how is pictured! The staff was so friendly and professional Felt very welcome

    Great spa and overall service, but lack of AC is problematic during summer stays
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    There is no AC in the room. The room was therefore very warm (on the 3rd floor, under the roof). A fan was provided, but it was fairly small in diameter and therefore quite loud for the amount of displaced air. We didn't sleep very well as a result. Given the high price of the hotel, having no AC is certainly becoming a huge disadvantage for summer stays. The breakfast was slightly disappointing: some dishes were not replenished (roast beef and mozzarella plates for instance), the cheeses were not labelled, there was no traditional "moutarde de Benichon" nor "vin cuit". It seemed there were no "anglo-saxon friendly" options either.

    Great location by the thermal spa, with free access to the fantastic spa. Nice terrace, perfect for dinner and enjoying a drink. Great service at the reception. Great pastries at breakfast. Good discount for Sunday nights.

    An Amazing Stay in a Breath-taking Ambiance

    I liked everything! The parking space is so convenient The reception staff is so welcoming and very well trained. We were checked-in and checked-out by two apprentices: I am not sure they are apprentices only though. You guys need to hire them as soon as possible! The health center is another level! Amazingly beautiful. You can come out from the pool with a totally positive mood. It is very convenient for couples (warm water, jacuzzi spaces, breath-taking view, calm). It is also very clean. In the night, we were late on dinner time. When I informed a waiter in the hotel restaurant that I just need some bread so we can eat something before we sleep, he said that he will try to get me sandwiches from the kitchen, and he certainly did get me 2 sandwiches so we don't sleep hungry! That was way over my expectations. The breakfast was also so generous. The village of Charmey is in itself so relaxing and the location really helps you to relax and recharge.

    the only downside is the perhaps the bathroom where the washbasin could not be plugged, as a result one could not soak the bathing suit.

    If you think we should conserve water, do not stop in this hotel. The bathroom basin did not have a plug ! Even if you do not want a basin of water to wash your hands, to rince your face, to shave, to do do some clothes washing, encouraging people to run water to waste is an ecological crime. Pity, otherwise this hotel is very good. When you book a hotel in the future, ask for "basin with plug". Maybe we can stop this trend to install such basins.

    Reception, breakfast, room, good. Restaurant very good. Staff very friendly.

    The online reservation of the restaurant didn't work (no confirmation email) and on phone the communication in English wasn't easy.

    The room is quite nice and modern with an amazing view. The direct access to the baths is also amazing, it's quite practical an the baths are also quite nice. Perfect location.

    the smell of the kitchen in all the areas; no window open at the restaurant, no fresh air, difficult to breathe. The breakfast is average. The sink in the bathroom was blocked. In the hamam area one of 3 areas didn’t work, in Sauna area one of three area didn’t work either. Poor maintenance at all, it’s sad for Switzerland where there are a lot of high school for hoteliers.
