Getting there
Great for walkers
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Beautiful suites, stylish, in fabulous color combinations. The shower in front of the sauna room is a bit non practical but is nicely designed too. The king size bed is super comfortable. The minibar is cooled but empty- weird. Our question for the why was not really answered- early days issues I guess. The staff is friendly but not highly trained- some Swiss hotel management school lessons would not be harmful.

At the moment the best hotel rooms in the village. Still, some details were missing in my room even others in out group had recieved certain complimentary products.
Better quality breakfast with nice personalized concept and friendly service. Too few cooks in the citchen though.
All is ready for better than average service and design experience in Levi BUT one thing that really is from a past world is a super anti-customer-friendly principle to keep the spa shut on Sundays. Nothing to do with any resort business thinking in today’s world. Our group just could not help wondering how on earth can the hotel afford such behaviour.

A very nice hotel with advantages and disadvantages... Unfortunately we had a very small room (booked too late - no other room available) but unfortunately we have to say that it was actually too small for 2 adults and 1 child 11 and should not have been offered at all. The price is simply too high for that! There was no storage space, let alone a proper closet - just a clothes rail and a chest of drawers... impossible for a winter holiday. Our window faced the parking lot/pizzeria and what really bothered us was the music that played all night! And actually it was always good music - during the day we liked it but at night - it's better to save it! Unfortunately you can't get to the swimming pool through the hotel and it is therefore of course a public facility - which at certain times almost led to it being overcrowded. And walking through the cold is actually unreasonable (we had temperatures as low as -30C) And I therefore think the bathrobes in the rooms are superfluous. - I would never walk across a parking lot to the wellness area in a bathrobe!!
The breakfast - sensationally delicious and simply great!
Our New Year's Eve menu was an absolute explosion of flavors and extraordinarily delicious!
It is strange, however, that the bar closes at 11 p.m. - and not just on New Year's Eve.
For a hotel in this price range, I actually expect a little more than just excellent food, especially on New Year's Eve... a well-stocked and well-stocked bar is a nice change, especially for us parents who can leave our older children in their room for an hour without worrying 😉
All in all - a great hotel with extremely friendly staff, especially in the restaurants!

To recommend as a three star hotel with adjusted pricing.
Five star is a scam as the service proposition is not at all in line with the absurd prices charged.
Things to improve: a) Service quality reception (personnel very transactional – fine for a three star hotel not five star hotel); b) Service quality room service (supervision by the manager of the work conducted by cleaning teams as a number of cleaning teams spend their time on cellphones asking clients whether they would their rooms have cleaned – cleaning means: passing a broom in the bath and folding the linens / no linens changed even if the pillows were on the floor to signal it is not proper!); c) Furnishing rooms properly (not sufficient space for putting the clothing of two people); d) Room design (shower: construction awkward as you water the appartment while taking a shower; no privacy in the bath as bath and room are connect with doors not fully closing). Overall it feels like that the design has been given to an external firm without the owner of the hotel checking properly whether the proposals would work. E) SPA is clearly not on the level of a five star hotel where you would expect private jacuzis and calmness in the SPA area. what you get is a free entrance in the public SPA of levi where you have to fight for space in the sauna & jacuzis. Clearly not a five star experience. F) Service quality activities – in a five star hotel you expect pro-active activity proposals by the hotel & support for planning your journey. When asked to make a dinner reservation in a predefined restaurant, I had to convince the receptionist to call the restaurant. With regards to other activities such as Snow Shoe walking or husky races we were directed towards the tourist information… A five star hotel normally offers basic activities free of charge (for instance snow shoes) and for others has predefined agreements with high quality operators. Here neither was the case. G) Dinner – The hotel does have four restaurants in its premises (of which one Burger King…). However, even as a hotel guest you cannot reserve or are treated preferably with regards to waiting for tables…
Overall I would not recommend this hotel. If they take their five star journey seriously, I would expect that they act on the above.

One star for the location. Other than that the hotel should be called "design challenged" - tiny rooms, no place to leave clothes (especially skiing clothes), no proper shower curtains, NO CLEANING SERVICE, no luggage service/ storage, staff aren't trained. The room is hot at all times and can't be regulated. We slept with the window open at -17 Celsius. Not very sustainable this place... These prices would get you a world-class service anywhere in the world but not in this hotel.

The experience would have been very good if guests had been adherent to rules and regulation to prevent covid. Room was not so big but modern and nice. Bathroom is open on the room through 2 glass doors and it not gives you so much privacy, so think about it if you go with someone you are not so close to… You get free access to all spa area but due to the fact that there were no limitations and many guests were going around without face masks we didn’t try it. I would suggest staff member to impose the use of masks especially at buffet areas…

We stayed at one of the new large Deluxe Suites and were quite happy with it (with the exception of the very annoying glass door with gaps on the toilet cubicle that offered zero privacy, even for a married couple... not sure which genius came up with that concept). I think you have to suspend belief in Levi with regards to how much these rooms cost, as the prices were commensurate to 5* in central London and overall the quality was closer to 4* in a provincial hotel, but that aside it was a very pleasant stay.

Elegant, modern, clean and with a beautiful desing, this hotel made our stay in Levi more than pleasant. The room (can’t remember the type) was spacious, relaxing and the bed simply amazing. Extra appreciation for the Nespresso machine. The lady from the reception was friendly and helpful, giving us accurate information about the things that can be done around and places to dine. Tasty and variated breakfast.

We stayed at deluxe loft room, and it was perfect for family traveling with kids. Usually, we have sofa bed or spare bed in room or two rooms combined, but this was way better for us. Room was spacious and kids enjoyed their time at their own balcony. Still, they were in our sight all the time. They seem to learn from these review or other guests who has written reviews hasn’t find the right breakfast place. They had special breakfast for our room and it had table service for warm dishes. You should really try asparagus with bacon. It was excellent. Kids loved American pancakes with vanilla. Hotel is well located. Easy access to center of the city, slopes and cross-country skiing. Everything that we want to do in Levi. Overall we loved the place and will come back again next time.

I had visited this hotel once before when it was quite new. it was the darkest corona time with restrictions. Then the service was quite distant and maybe not that warm and welcoming. Since I sensed good potential in the hotel, I decided to give it a second chance.
The arrival made me a bit nervous, since the reception couldn't find my reservation. For some reason the receptionist assumed us as guests of the Spa Hotel Levi, I don't know why. When the reservation was found, everything proceeded smoothly. We got the keys and entered to our lovely room. We also got the bracelets for the spa entry included in the prize of the hotel room. The room prize also included parking.
The room was spacious and cozy, yet stylish. We had our own balcony to enjoy the warm summer evening. The view was a bit poor (parking lot and the roof of the restaurant building) but that didn't bother me much. The interiors were stylish and I liked very much the beautiful Lappi themed photos without all the kitchy clichés like reindeer horns on the wall or stuff like that. The complimentary refreshments were very much appreciated after a long day in a car.
The bed was very comfortable and the selection of pillows was good. The duvets were also of good quality. Bathroom and sauna nicely equipped and the sauna offered a nice and warm löyly after a long day. Since it was off-season the place was very peaceful and quiet. Also visited the spa, a very selaxing experience and not too crowded.
The breakfast was located at the restaurant and it was the same buffet breakfast with Spa Hotel. It was a typical scandinavian buffet breakfast, nice with a good selection, but I missed something "little extra" to be the final touch of this lovely hotel stay. I also hoped for fresh espresso based coffee drinks. Perhaps you could add these for request? I personally would have been more than happy to purchase a nice latte with my breakfast since I can't drink filtered coffee at all.
The service was very pleasant, warm and polite at all times, at the reception, in the restaurant(s) and at the spa. Overall this was a very good and a very pleasant, very good class hotel stay and I wish I could have had the opprtunity to stay another night. I can warmly recommend this hotel.
