Hi we stayed at Hotel Lion over Christmas & it was fantastic. In fact it was so good we are going back on 4th March for another week & we do not normally visit same place twice. It is aprox 15-20 mins walk from town & gondola lift. Its by Hotel Bor/Edelweiss. They offer a free shuttle bus which leaves every 20-30 mins 8am till 6pm & is very reliable therefore not an issue being just out of town. They also now have swimming pool. Hotel is very warm so take T-shirts as we ran out of tops as ...

Yep, Hotel Lion is nice. Jo and Chris showed us around the place. Was a bit warm and the pool table was a little strange (honest, thats why we lost!). But the locals trying to move a trailer was very entertaining! Smile
Cheers Jo and Chris, glad to see youre back okay.
