“It was what was required.”
It was a little out of town, fortunately I was able to get a lift there otherwise a taxi would have been necessary. I really enjoyed the salad for dinner and the atmosphere in the restaurant was friendly. There was real historic feel about the place. I enjoyed the breakfast - basic but did the job.

It was so warm on the balcony, after col de fenetre it was glorious to have a view and a balcony. Dormitory rooms can be awful, we had heard that any dorm mattress might have fleas. We didn't see any.. Beds were clean & smelled fresh. Shower was great, dinner was tasty. Breakfast was plentyful. It was a great stay.

“Fine for a nights stay, albeit overpriced”
Unique building with bags of character. Short uphill walk to Arolla (get off at La Monta if taking the bus) Peaceful, with nice gardens and surroundings. The room itself was quiet and clean. Hot showers were welcome!

“No drinking water available.”
No drinking water, specially unacceptable. Also quit cold in the room, and no heating. Lastly, there is no individual bathroom in double room, it’s shared bathroom on the floor.

“Wish I could stay longer.”
Quiet place with very enthusiastic and polite staffs. Not all of them speak English but they try their best to answer our queries. We had the cheese fondue with tomatoes - something unique to the Valais canton - for dinner (strongly recommended by the staff) and it was just fantastic. The dessert was apricot sorbet with apricot liquor, both produced locally, the combination was just perfect. It’s a good place right in the alps with no other disturbance from the surroundings. Very peaceful environment, and near to various hiking trails. There’s towel provided, hot water shower, comfortable beds. It’s an old property but very well maintained, and very clean.
