I had a wonderful stay with mesmerizing views of the mountains and the lake. The room was only serviced every 2nd day, which was a bit inconvenient, and it tended to carry noise easily. However, having Juliette balconies was a lovely touch.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel with great views of the mountains and lake, although the promised water view was just a sliver. The location was ideal, being away from the noise yet a short walk to the town center. The dining options were delicious, and the service was top-notch. However, the room angle wasn't the best to enjoy the full view, and the price could be a bit high for some travelers.
