I know hundreds of Saxon inns, and in none of them was the food as good as here. The fish and meat in the perfect consistency, the sauces are gold, the vegetables are on point. Wonderful, big recommendation.

Excellent cuisine and very friendly staff! We weren't hotel guests, but "only" there for dinner, so we can only rate the restaurant, but that's a whole 5 star, keep it up 👍!

Either before the start of the hike or after. At the ice cream stand by the gondola pond you can find almost everything you need. We snacked on ice cream and it tasted very good. A scoop or sundae. Both great!Thanks

First: The ice cream parlor is great and I would absolutely like to exclude that from the following points.But unfortunately we were disappointed by the restaurant for the second time.We have rarely been treated so inflexibly, lazily and unmotivated. And that with the very sporty prices that are being quoted there. It just resembles mass processing.I hope that changes quickly, because we actually always enjoyed being there.So we continue to go to the kiosk more often to eat ice cream, but we won't go to the restaurant anymore for the time being.
