I'll do my best to be objective. Firstly, we booked here as it was listed as "Ski-in, ski-out.". You can ski-in about 5 metres from the Cairn gondola, anything else requires crossing the road. The sizeable step down to the road, followed by the same step up to the piste, means you can't safely do it with skis on, even if there is some snow on the road. I wouldn't, however, argue with anyone stating that it's very close to the piste. The boot room is located in the hotel basement close to the exit, and opposite the "Ski-Set" equipment rental shop. The shop staff were helpful and friendly. The room key doubles as the locker key, with corresponding numbers on the doors. Our locker only had space for two lots of gear. It would be impossible to put three lots in if we had three people in our room. The hotel is showing its age. Not really sure how it gets a 4 star rating. As far as the room goes; We had two single beds, which were a little on the small side. I'm not a giant, I'm 6'2", we moved the beds so my toes weren't touching the wall. Comfortable enough though, with one pillow and one scatter cushion on each bed. No fridge or kettle. There is a wide window sill should you need to chill your beer outside. The shower was great. Always had hot water and plenty of pressure. The toilet is separate from the shower, and has no hand-wash basin. You have to use the one in the shower room. We used the usual system of hanging towels up when we finished, but leaving anything we considered in need of replacement on the floor for the room staff. However, the first time we did this, the same towel was put up on the hook again. When I took the towel down to reception to enquire about this, I was told "But it's only Tuesday!" Yes really. The safe, though fully operational without the need for any assistance from reception, is not bolted down. It's small enough to put where-ever you like. Not the safest hotel safe we've come across. The restaurant is buffet. Breakfast; The toaster is missing its chute, so they've put it sideways on to allow you to catch the toast at the back. No porridge, although there is a microwave and oats to make your own. Not ideal if 20 people want porridge, which is always a popular start to the day for many skiers. There is the usual selection of cheese, ham, bread, eggs, etc. 200 rooms. One toaster. One microwave. Dinner; You have to get in quick if you want soup. Once it's gone, it's gone. They don't do replen here. I ended up with pasta most nights. After a hard day out on the slopes, I look forward to some hearty sustenance. What I would expect is choices for everyone. Meat option, fish option, veggie option. Not too much to expect. Unfortunately, they appear to think it's summer all year round. A cheese day where the only meat was something the guy informed me was fish. A tomato day, a veggie day. We did have a nice chunk of slow-cooked beef on one day, but all-in-all not brilliant. There was plenty of choice for thos
