    No fridge :( so we put our beer outside to get it cold 😂

    Great location. Great view of course. Little extras like free tea and coffee (good stuff) sparkling water, banana bread. Awesome sitting areas inside and out

    Can't think of anything.

    Everything was within a walkable distance. Like everyone said, the breakfast was excellent and the staff was so kind and helpful. Also my unit (family room) had a washing machine, and that was a nice surprise.

    A fridge would be quite useful in the room.

    Absolutely everything was outstanding. The staff were among the kindest I've ever encountered. When my partner fell ill, one of the staff members went the extra mile by bringing equipment from their own home. They were exceptionally helpful and caring. I would recommend them without hesitation, 10/10. Tea and coffee are available in the lobby. There is also a beautiful lounge area where one may enjoy a beverage. The quality of the wine far exceeds the price.

    Nothing much but a bit more hot food for breakfast would be great ie fried eggs. Also the boiled eggs were cold. It would be nice if they could be warm.

    Its location. We were given a room with Mountain View and the stream flowing outside. We had a balcony too. Fantastic views from the balcony. The hotel is a minute away from the shops and restaurants. The hotel staff is friendly and helpful. They always greeted us with a smile and were happy to help and answer most of our questions. It offers free hot drinks and also has a water cooler with squash bottles there so you could make a cold drink as well. Nice seating downstairs with a pool table. There is a room for storage of the ski gear ie skis, boots, helmets and poles. They also offer free bicycles to be taken for rides. The sauna is available and needs to be booked for an hours slot. There is a small fitness area adjacent to it. It’s just 2-3minutes away from the Brevent cable car to the ski resort. The room was nice as well (a bit tired but not too much of a bother). Plenty of parking space available. The breakfast room is also reasonably big and not much queuing is needed. The breakfast room staff are also brilliant. The view from the breakfast room is also fantastic. There are different teas available to try. There is a lift too.

    The room didn’t have a kettle but we can still get hot water at the reception

    Cosy atmosphere, the room ensured us a very good night sleep, we had an online exam and were allowed with a free late check out which we really appreciate, all staffs were very helpful and friendly, unlimited drinks, facilities (sauna, gym, climbing rock) were easy to book, free warm cakes in the evening. All in all we would definitely come back here again.

    We had a fantastic stay at Hôtel de L’Arve. The staff were very helpful and very accomodating when we needed to change our dates. The 24 hour reception is very helpful and the hotel has great facilities. Room was very clean and had all ammenities we needed, we had a great view of the river and mountains on our balcony. Breakfast was great with plenty of variety and we enjoyed the free afternoon tea pastries, cake, tea and coffee. Wish we had longer to stay- I would recommend.

    The carpet in the upstairs hallways and the elevator needs replacing.

    The building is very quaint and in good shape for it’s age. The location is quite good, right at the edge of the business district and very close to a bus line. It was warm and cozy. There is coffee and tea available all the time and they have homemade cake every afternoon. I did not have the breakfast so can’t speak to that. They also have a nice water dispenser with glass bottles that can be filled and taken to your room. A very nice touch. They have several small rooms as lounges that are comfortable and well used by guests. They staff was friendly and helpful.
