Je suis venue passer une nuitée avec ma copine et nous avez passé un très bon séjour. L’hôtel a du être récemment rénové car les chambres paraissent assez récentes. Le personnel d’accueil est adorable, le spa avec vue sur la vallée est superbe. L’hôtel dispose même d’une salle de jeux avec billard, ping pong et fléchettes, de quoi bien s’amuser. Le petit déjeuner est un buffet assez varié et de très bonne qualité, il est inclus avec la chambre contrairement à ce qui est indiqué sur Expedia. Nous avons dîné au restaurant chinois, excellent lui aussi. Nous retournons pour sur dans cet hôtel. A noter cependant que les chambres vue villes sont en face du train, cela ne nous a pas dérangé car nous n’étions pas à l’hôtel la journée.

One unhelpful person!!
Fantastic…BUT……!!! Everyone was helpful, pleasant, friendly and courteous (as you would expect!) BUT one person. She was I n reception, she was grumpy, reluctant, unhelpful, dismissive and unpleasant. When asked to book a table in an off site restaurant and I subsequently asked for other recommendations. In the end I had to ask for the manager. He was very nice, helpful and finally managed to arrange a restaurant booking. For the remainder of my stay the women on reception was frosty, miserable and ignored my daughter and I. Everyone else was warm and always welcoming. Shame it’s what I remember most about the hotel.

Amazing place in Villars, best quality/price
Hôtel with unique concept introducing Chinese culture and cuisine into the Swiss ski resort, very kind staff and great service during our entire stay! We start the day with fresh pressed orange juice and good quality breakfast, perfect ! They make authentic Chinese fondue and Chinese dishes too.
