This impressive stone-and-wood building, owned and run by a local family, has 15 bright, spacious rooms with good, big bathrooms and fine balconies overlooking the valley.
Paying a little extra for super-deluxe rooms gets you parquet flooring and a higher view-perch. The restaurant terrace has particularly fabulous views, albeit marred to the north by an aerial tower. There's an internet cafe, moneychanger, ATM and well-organised in-house trekking-and-travel agency.
