Panorama Park Hotel

8/10 Good
"Bel endroit, un peu vieillot mais avec tous les services nécessaires et un personnel hors pair. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour. Beaucoup de marches, et surtout le restaurant qui est en haut d'un colline. L'endroit n'est pas très bien adapté pour les persoones à mobilité réduite, mais il y a des voiturettes de golf pour les déplacements. Excellent buffet déjeuner et très bon resto. À recommander."
