I felt like stepping into a modern Swiss fairytale when I entered this hotel. The rooms were spacious, quiet, and beautifully designed, making me feel like I was in a classic Swiss storybook with all the modern conveniences. However, some noise from light wooden pan walking with cupboards into my room at 3.05pm was a minor disturbance.
