The beautiful and spacious dining, lounge, kitchen, and a theater room are all on the 2nd floor.
Please enjoy gathering at the beautiful dining table with a nice glass of wine or a hot chocolate after a long day on the mountain. The theater room comes in handy when planning a day off from skiing!

After breakfast with the warm wooden table, you can take a walk to Echoland and have coffee, enjoy movie in the theater room or relax in the large bathtub at night and you will sleep very well in the comfortable bedroom until morning.
