Pros: exceptional spa. Staff are very friendly and welcoming Cons: AC was inadequate. If you leave the balcony door open you would get the smoke from other guests smoking outside or worse the flying insects. No coffee or tea in room or minibar. Overall pleasing

Highlight for us was the open spal from 11pm to 1am on Wednesdays - enjoying the heated spa in the chilly moonlight was a unique magical experience. The staff were also very good. Note there is no TV in the room although you can ask for one. The room size was ridiculously small though.

Nice but overpriced.
Overpriced for what you get. The room was less than expected and the hotel needs a renovation. Also shame to have a Mountain view but no balcony to enjoy it. The restaurant was good but again some items were outrageously expensive. Plus would be nice to see instead of Valser water in bottle that’s it’s free or only a few Francs and more environmentally friendly similar to Züri water. For the price paid not worth it.

Wer Kunst mag, wird diese Unterkunft lieben. Die Zimmer im House of Architects sind mit vielen Ideen ausgestattet, die man entdecken kann. Die Zimmer sind relativ klein, weswegen wir keinen langen Aufenthalt in dieser Kategorie empfehlen würden. Das Essen im Haupthaus ist hervorragend, das Hotel Personal sehr zuvorkommend und professionell, die Therme einzigartig. Die Architektur des Haupthauses spricht für sich, auch wenn alle Häuser für den Laien nicht konsequent umgesetzt wurden (so wurde zum beispiel für unseren Geschmack das Treppenhaus noch zu stark in der Ur-Form gelassen), was aber sicherlich so geplant war. Die Therme sollte nicht fotografiert werden, haben aber leider heute Morgen direkt einen gesehen, der sich nicht dran gehalten hat. Leider sehr schade, da wir finden, dass man den Wunsch des Hotels respektieren sollte.
