Super Lage und sehr nettes Personal! Preis-/Leistung passt.

Wir wählten das Hotel im Februar, weil es uns im Dachzelt auf 2000müM zu übernachten, zu kalt erschien. Im Häuschen war es aber auch nicht wärmer, da der kleine Heizlüfter überhitzte und abschaltete, bevor der Raum erwärmt wurde.

Amazing location, individual balconies are relaxing and also have great views. There’s a great sunset viewpoint up a small outcrop within the hotel compound.

"Very nice mountain resort"

9.0

Nice property in the mountains, well located in Jebel Shams. The individual houses are nice and private. Staff friendly, they prepared a sandwich as we arrived before dinner time. The dinner was diverse, both local and western food offered. The room was big with a balcony.

This is a mountain resort, so obviously water and heating is a different system then in a city. Nothing to complain about, except perhaps for dinner could be staggered the attendance as at 7pm there was quite a line of people waiting to get to the buffet.
