Excellent Spa and Location

indoor pooloutdoor hot tubmatterhorn viewsunderstaffed bar
I enjoyed the indoor pool and outdoor hot tub. The facilities seemed new. We booked a room with a balcony and views of the Matterhorn. It was a great sight. The lounge was nice for tea, cake, and cocktails near the wood stove, and there was even a violinist one day. The staff was very friendly.
The bar area looked understaffed. I had to find someone for service. It would be great to see some improvements made there.

the spa is great , i especially liked the inox pool with different water jets and bubble options. the mirrored ceiling above the pool was unique , i also appreciated the views of the mountains from the spa. i found the breakfast buffet varied with lots of options , it easily covered my needs.
the staff were not always helpful , i found i sometimes received conflicting information. for example , i needed a power adaptor and one staff member offered to sell it to me , but upon checkout , i was asked to return it. i found this a bit frustrating. the bathroom seemed dated to me.

i totally loved the new spa facilities! i was so happy to find a hotel with a lovely indoor pool and an outdoor hot tub! the panoramic room, it has a great balcony with views of the Matterhorn, i was obsessed. the lounge area is so nice for tea and cake by the wood stove while it snowed outside. sophie at the front desk, she's really superb!
