    Air recirculation instead of air conditioning in the architect room, but I guess it’s only the case in those warmer summer days

    This is a must for every architecture lover. The therms make the whole experience otherworldly. Excellent service and I should say great value for money Don’t take the phone to the thermes, you won’t regret it, it’s a very rare experience

    We ate at the Red restaurant. The food was really good, but the price of the food and especially the wine was absurd, even for Switzerland. Still, the staff so was friendly, that in the end it kinda evens up.

    Staff was so friendly and helpful and the Tom Mayne room was just incredible. The Therme were as expected great.

    Spa treatments are really too expensive. For instance, 180.- for a 60 minutes massage is exagerated. Breakfast could be more varied due to the standing of the hotel. The bar is also too expensive (18.- a glass of white wine (1dl) and the atmosphere is a bit uptight.

    Rooms are small but it is a real experience. Thom Mayne's black room is amazing with it's glassy yellow shower and it's view on the montains and the thermes. Thermes are outstanding. You feek like evolving in an impressionist painting depicting the montain and its changing light. The access of thermes by night (11pm-1am for clients of the hotel only) enhances a romantic atmosphere. Da papa restaurant is really good and tasty.

    There was one massive problem, we went out at night to smoke a cigarette (from the hotel lobby) and could not get in after from the same place and no one was around. We thought that’s a big failure and there should at least have been a sign saying that. Walking outside in this weather with our pj was a big downer. Also the facilities are a bit out of date and could use some modernization. Beside that things were great.

    Loved the staff, super nice. The breakfast was great and the food in the restaurant was fine (we expected a bit more to be honest). Architect is beautiful of course, the view is flawless. Again the staff was your Forte (:

    Saturday was too crowded. The price of treatments is somewhat too high. Eating in the local restaurants in the village was much better experience than staying in the hotel.

    The place is just amazing. Thermal baths are beautiful. I feel like I got 10 years younger in 3 days at the place. The hotel is connected with the baths by a bridge, so it is very comphortable. Staff is very friendly and nice.

    My only comment, the beds were a bit hard, it was a Japanese inspired room but I’m used to sleeping on a memory foam mattress due to back issues. I was going to ask if they could provide a topper but didn’t want to be that annoying guest either, but perfection would have been a softer topper in the bed.

    Like? We loved this Hotel in stunning village of Vals! We extended our stay because 3 days was not enough and it was so worth it! The hotel, the spa, Silver their 2star restaurant, all amazing. We hiked everyday and returned to soak in the thermal waters of the spa. We came to relax and recharge our batteries. I barely looked at my phone, Thank you!!

    the newly architects designed rooms are really beautiful, BUT for those that do not like small rooms, they are super small, built in the 1960’s the rooms are simply a part of history in sizing. this means that you need to go with an open mind and you will be ok.

    been before, the natural architect design Spa is really unbelievable, spiritual, beautiful and soul healing. amazing. restaurant food is very good, including breakfast.
