Personalen var vÀldigt trevliga, serviceminded och hjÀlpsamma. Ett utmÀrkt litet hotell med gÄngavstÄnd till liftarna. Rummet var dock ganska slitet i stort behov av renovering. Resten av hotellet i fint skick.

Chambre et sanitaire minuscules (pour une nuit ça passe mais pas plus). 115 euros sans le petit déjeuner ce n'est pas justifié. Le petit déjeuner annoncé à 10 euros (approximativement) est à 14 euros. On peut avoir beaucoup mieux pour 146 euros (taxes comprises). Pas de restauration le soir. Le restaurant "les pivotes" fonctionne que pour le petit déjeuner le matin. Sinon emplacement et personnel Ok

Disappointing

A little disappointed as I had booked a hotel with a restaurant ( helpful when travelling alone with kids) and it was closed for the end of season. The room was also rather basic and smelled of damp. On the positive side, the staff were helpful and the breakfast good. I visit Auron a lot but will stay elsewhere next time.

Hotel de montagne agréable

TrĂšs bel hĂŽtel, confortable, calme, bien situĂ©. Le personnel est aimable. La chambre Ă©tait agrĂ©able, insonorisĂ©e et la literie impeccable. La sdb Ă©tait convenable, mais toutefois avec quelques marques de moisissures sur un mur. Petit dĂ©jeuner en supplĂ©ment mais qui vaut le coup, bien fournit. Le restaurant de l’hĂŽtel vaut le dĂ©tour Ă©galement, trĂšs bonne fondue au fromage et les serveurs sont dĂ©vouĂ©s et sympathiques. L'hĂŽtel est Ă  5 minutes Ă  pied du tĂ©lĂ©phĂ©rique du Riou.

Trevlig atmosfÀr i ett perfekt lÀge för att komma med buss och ta sig till backarna. Restaurangen helt ok med bra service och rimliga priser. Rummen och sÀngar lite tveksamma och duschrum och wc mer att önska sig.
