lion is about 10-15 minutes walk- but you have the luxery of a mini bus to the gondola station. I stayed in the edelvies near by and had to walk, unless you pay for the taxi. Hotel and food was SHIT! Lion looked alot nicer!! enjoy.
stayed in the lion hotel last week ,absoultly brilliant its 15min walk to the gondola but mini buses run every 5/10 min s from 8.30am to 6pm in both directions, we walked into town most nights and apparently back (cant remember) a taxi is 10lev any more questions just ask
