Emma, an outstanding staffmember in Bistro Lago provided excellent service throughout our stay. Her attentive service standard was perfect - professional yet not overbearing as many hospitality professionals can be. We enjoyed her humour too; Emma’s careful guidance through the menu and wine list made our evening all the more enjoyable. Many thanks

Very clean, big room. Sort of view of the lake. Nice staff (that’s the case everywhere in this country!) The only downside is that the mattress is wayyyy too soft. Could bro fall asleep. But for someone who needs a fork mattress, this is a big deal.
