Cardrona Hotel features an iconic on-site restaurant and bar. You can enjoy the picturesque gardens while sipping a drink on the patio. This hotel features a hot tub, a ski drying room and shared lounge and laundry facilities. The family room was very comfortable, clean and well-equipped with a small kitchenette. We appreciated the hot tub (shared) after a day up the mountain. Dinner and ambience in the pub for dinner was excellent as usual. The mulled wine and seafood chowder are a must!

Each room and suite has a modern en suite bathroom with shower and luxury bathrobes. All suites include a living room with open fireplace and a private terrace. I recently had the pleasure of staying in the Villa with Lake View at this bed and breakfast, and I must say it was an absolutely spectacular experience. I arrived late, well past 9 pm, and was greeted with a warm and cozy room. It was a perfect welcome after a long journey. The room was not only comfortable but also spacious, and the highlight for me was the bathroom, which had a lovely bathtub. It was a great touch for those relaxing soak sessions after a day of exploring. The breakfast provided was nothing short of delightful. There was a wide variety of options to choose from, and I was particularly impressed by how accommodating they were to my allergy needs. It's always a relief when a place takes such good care of their guests. The staff at this B&B were a highlight of my stay. They were incredibly lovely, kind, and helpful throughout my visit. The reception provided excellent recommendations for things to do in the area, which made my stay even more enjoyable. But what truly sets this place apart is the view. It's not just a view; it's an experience in itself. The breathtaking vistas of the lake were the icing on the cake and made my stay truly exceptional. I couldn't have asked for a better place to unwind and take in the natural beauty. In summary, my stay at this bed and breakfast was memorable for all the right reasons. If you're looking for a cozy, well-serviced place with stunning views and a helpful staff, this is the place to be. Just be prepared for a bit of a workout to reach it!
