Loved by Hotel Ambiance guests
"Our hotel room had a balcony, complete with table and chairs, became our favorite spot during our stay as it had a very clear view of The Matterhorn Mountain on one end."
"Breakfast was also great and I enjoyed the jacuzzi facing Matternhorn."
"The spa downstairs was nice. the whirlpool tub outside was only kept at 35 C so was a bit chilly."
