"I really love this hotel and the breakfast was really good. I got breakfast delivered to my room in the morning for €24 you get quite large portions. When I got scrambled eggs, it was an entire bowl of scrambled eggs! Plus a yogurt, an entire bowl of cut fruit, a cappuccino and 3/4 of a full size baguette. The breakfast downstairs is even better. The hotel is clean and nice and the staff is very attentive. There is coffee and tea in your room with a Nespresso machine. There is also a hot water kettle and a refrigerator. There is a good gelato place just next-door that is also a café with many kinds of drinks and milkshakes. This is literally right in front of the park that leads up to the lake and it was a five minute walk to get to the boats for lake tours etc. It’s also right in the old town so you’re also very close to the historical sites to visit. Lots of restaurants nearby. I recommend Vif. The pets are very comfortable and have nice linens. I think the only downside is my room didn’t have slippers or a robe, but apparently you could ask for them at the front desk, but I didn’t know that. There is a fitness center and a sauna, but I didn’t have time to attend either because I was so busy doing other things. Lobby has free fruit water and granita machine (slushies). This is a great hotel. I will return in the future"
