Best of the best:
Beausite Park is reputedly the best in town, with great facilities but a poor location.

Quiet:
For a bit of peace and quiet head for Wengener Hof, although don’t expect traditional alpine charm.

Apartments:
The hotel Bernerhof’s decent Residence apartments are well positioned and hotel facilities available to guests.

Brits abroad:
For a British favourite, try ‘Falken’ for a more Fawlty Towers approach!

All-rounder:
Silberhorn is comfortable, modern and central.
