Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has its ups and downs. The breakfast is a delight, well-balanced and enjoyable. However, the rooms vary significantly; some are updated and spacious while others are quite small and outdated. The lack of friendliness from some staff members, particularly Peter in the restaurant, really dampened our experience. Accessibility to Merano is tricky without a taxi, further complicating the stay.
The hotel has a mix of room styles, with some newer and larger options that were more comfortable compared to the outdated smaller ones. Breakfast is a highlight, being very good and well-balanced, while dinner offers a four-course experience, despite a few hiccups. However, the service from management, particularly from one staff member, was not very welcoming, leaving a less than ideal impression. The hotel's location is somewhat inconvenient for accessing local attractions without relying on taxis.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the breakfast was very good and the newer rooms were comfortable, the outdated rooms left much to be desired. The location was somewhat isolated, making it hard to access nearby places without a taxi, and the service was marred by some unwelcoming staff interactions, particularly from one restaurant manager. Overall, it didn't live up to my expectations for a memorable holiday.
The hotel has some good features, including a well-balanced breakfast and a selection of dining options, but the service, especially from some staff, leaves much to be desired. The location is a bit isolated with no nearby amenities, and the Wi-Fi wasn't reliable. Overall, while the new rooms are a plus, the attitude of the management detracted from our stay.
During my stay, I was met with a mix of experiences. On one hand, the breakfast was well-balanced and delicious, and I really appreciated the new larger rooms with balconies. On the other hand, the service, especially from one of the restaurant staff, left a lot to be desired, and the location felt a bit isolated with limited transport options. The Wi-Fi was also quite frustrating, making it hard to stay connected.
