On the main road not in the village
The Hotel sits on its own next to the main road. Its possible to walk to the Vizzavona station but out of season there is nothing open. The evening food is tasty and plentiful - the 20€ plate of cheese and local meat was more than sufficicent for 2 as a starter and the mains are filling. Wine was a bit pricey. Great interior, an interesting old building and the owner plays live music apparently at the weekends.

Nicht mehr auf Höhe der Zeit.
Last minute Buchung. Das Hotel hat seine besten Jahre weit hinter sich. Der Service war moderat, das Frühstück außerordentlich übersichtlich, Kaffee musste in der Küche abgeholt werden, nach zwei Glas Orangensaft waren die Vorräte erschöpft. Unser Zimmer war nicht nur klein, sondern auch dunkel. Selbst tagsüber war elektrisches Licht nötig. Woher die formalen vier Sterne kommen, ist mir ein Rätsel. Zwei wären angebracht.

Très bon établissement. Bon hotel et très bon restaurant. Une seule suggestion : mieux gérer les accès à l'hôtel: Que les clefs des chambres permettent d'ouvrir la porte principale de l'hôtel sans avoir à demander au réceptionniste.

Arrivés en train, l'hôtel n'était pas indiqué de la gare. Hôtel en travaux. Une terrasse est en cours de construction ce qui devrait permettre de prolonger la chambre qui était petite et sombre.

Bergsemester
Personalen var mycket vänlig Mycket dålig frukost med bara marmelad till bröd. Hotellet drog dessutom pengar för första natten långt innan incheckning. Middag halvbra. Det finns restauranger i närheten, men man måste gå på skogsväg genom skogen och ficklampa behövs.

hotel de charme, sympa
Nous avons bien apprécié le calme, le lieu dans la nature. L'accueil a été très sympathique. Les services tels que le petit déjeuner, le repas étaient adaptés. Chambre spacieuse. Par contre quelques personnes ont discuté très tard le soir sur une banquette devant la chambre, ce qui nous a gêné. Dommage! Wifi, en plus! super!
