Hotel Panther'a

Centrally located with convenient access to ski facilities and amenities. Guests appreciated the delicious breakfast variety. Clean, spacious rooms with modern amenities and friendly, attentive staff.

Recently returned from two enjoyable weeks at this hotel which we booked, half board, through Tui. The hotel has good facilities and lovely rooms. The breakfast buffet was good too with lots of choice. The evening meal was disappointing. The portions were generous and the food well cooked but, to quote another reviewer, it just wasnt four star food. For example one main course was a portion of chicken in curry sauce on a mountain of boiled rice, another, thin chilli con carne in a bowl with nothing else. There were two choices of mains each night plus good pizza. The starter was a very basic salad bar and the soup mainly consome. The desserts were mostly cakes which I think were bought in, usually served dry with no sauces or cream ( strudel had vanilla sauce). And when we asked if we could have ice cream we were told that was dessert on another night. The menu was on a one week rotation so was the same both weeks. It was such a shame on an otherwise lovely stay.

we booked this hotel through Inghams as it was rated 4 star and had a spa/wellness area. One of our party wasn't planning to ski all day or everyday so having a spa was ideal to relax during the day. However the Spa didn't open until 4pm, and when we asked the hotel we were told it wasn't possible to open earlier, no where in Ingham's information did it say that it was only open between 4pm and 7pm. When we asked the rep, he said it was probably due to the high cost of energy that the spa was open for a shorter period! Robes or towels weren't available unless you left a €50 and €20 deposit, fortunately we had a sauna in our bathroom so we used that, but the hot tub outside had no water supply! Dinner; was build as a 4 course dinner. Course 1 was salad from the salad bar, little variation during the week. Course 2 was soap, broth every night and with a variant each night. Course 3: you were given a choice at breakfast to chose our main course based on a description by the staff, no printed information and a limited knowledge of what it was, so one morning when asked what fish, we got the reply fish. We later found out there was a QR code on the table we could look at but again descriptions where short with no detail Course 4 was desert, no choice, or the other choice was ice cream. This included cold apple strudel, something called sponge cake, which was actually panacotta with bit of sponge cake on top. No cheese. Wine selection was poor and expensive for bang average wines,€37 for a Pinot Grigio. Bar drinks were expensive with a single gin or bacardi with mixer for 13.90 Ski room was small with no lockers and no real security, seating for putting on ski boots was 5 garden chairs, situated in front of the ski boots, so better to grab your boots and put on in the corridor We had 2 males sharing a room and it took 2 days for the hotel to make 2 single beds, they said it was too difficult to do! Overall a nice room was let down by the things above. We were told by the rep that the hotel did want to speak with us but they could never find us! Considering we were eating in the hotel and often on the bar before and after dinner, and at breakfast I would say they didn't try, and that is the issue, they don't have to try. When we checked out and paid our £850 drinks bill we weren't even asked if we had a nice stay or even said thank you too!! We wont be going back and not booking through Inghams as their descriptions are both short and misleading. This hotel things having some room renovations and some flash decorations can hide it's inadequacies
