    Stunning location, we were close to the center of Franz Josef, type of food and the aforementioned store. Got huge room with a separate living area, a great view, as for instance - always come in handy: D

    Didn't like the staff, some of them were inefficient.

    We liked the friendly reception staff, the clean and spacious accomodation and the fact that the heating was working well in the middle of winter.

    We didn't understand that we had to pay for extra members of our family as this is unusual. It cost more than we had anticipated.

    The service and help was excellent. The villas were lovely with everything you would need . We had a lovely stay.

    The information on booking .com did not tell us the units were 5 km out of town. No problem if you have a car but we did not. It cost us $10 each time we went to town.

    This hotel is situated in a lovely remote area, surrounded by natural attractions such as stunning views of Franz Josef and the nearby attractions. The location is also convenient, with restaurants within walking distance, making it easy to explore the area and enjoy local cuisine. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, with separate bedrooms and a good kitchen for those who prefer to cook their own meals. Additionally, the attentive staff provide excellent service, ensuring a pleasant stay for guests.

    All was just fine, no complaints whatsoever.

    Very nice facility with plenty of room for 4 people. Easy check in and out.

    Initially, our kitchen was not well stocked with hot beverage choices (only 1 coffee and a few teas. The second night, it was fully stocked. Poor tv reception and remote only worked intermittently. The major issue I had was that the terms of our reservation was not clear. When I used your booking site, I requested a place for 4 people. I remember that I checked it several times which led me to select a 2 bedroom unit. Apparently the quote still only included 2 people. The price was already stretching my budget but then I had an unexpected $66 addition for each of the 2 nights. If I had known earlier that there would be an additional $66 per night I would have not selected this facility. I never would have picked a place which would be over $300/night. So I am not sure who or when this error was made, but it came as an unpleasant surprise. I felt trapped into the reservation because it was too late to cancel.

    The place was great. The staff was excellent and delivered exceptional service. It was modern, beautifully maintained and with high ceiling. We had a microwave, an electric kettle and refrigerators in the room. We thoroughly enjoyed this stay.
