“Outdated but affordable luxury”
Great location in a beautiful classic setting. The city of Vals-Des-Bains and the hotel has lots of late-19th century allure where the rich and famous once used to do their vacationing. This is from an era long time ago though. Still, you've got to love this type of old french classical hotels but the love for it has been clearly abonded by current owners/ operators... Price was good and affordable though for a high-season stay!

Old hotel and ‘very tired’. Needs a major refurbishment! Very limited restaurant menu. Breakfast ok but kept running out of items. Lift is an antique!

“Was beautiful once upon a time.”
Only sweet buffet at breakfast and packed with people pushing. Nothing healthy to eat or no options like gluten free.

A good location just a minute walk from the centre of the town and main attractions of Vals-les-Bains. Despite busy we always managed to find parking space at the hotel parking. 24h bar is much appreciated. Nice restaurant for a dinner.
