Grand Hotel Billia

Beautiful hotel with a gorgeous view. The hotel had a larger wellness area which was very nice but could do with some maintenance! The breakfast was also very lovely but no freshly pressed juice and the cappuccino needs to be worked out… Staff was very friendly :)

Rooms were spacious, clean, quiet, but poorly painted. Simple things like a bottle a water at your room was charged. Body lotion was replenished when asked for. The wellness area was beautiful, very clean, with friendly personnel. But the ouside area had no umbrellas. There was a separate area with parasols, but for an extra charge. We thought that was surreal for a 5-star hotel. Breakfast was good, but twice on our 4-day stay the hot water for the tea was finished, and it took half an hour to be refilled. Same with other things at breakfast. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and the area was very charming, but the nice extra's you would expect at a 5 star hotel were simply missing.

Multiple families were fortunate to have enjoyed several days together at this beautiful hotel for a family wedding in the area. Our family had three rooms and they were quiet, spacious, modern and equipped with everything needed for an excellent stay. We were able to self park, which was a bonus. The hotel grounds were immaculate, the pool was refreshing after a day of hiking or touring, the breakfast was plentiful, the service was impeccable. Walking distance to the charming town. I highly recommend this hotel.

From far away and on the internet this hotel looks like a gem. But from the moment on when you want to check in, you wish not to come back. It took the two receptionist an eternity to proceed with the check in. All the time they talked to each other and in the phone. They make the guest feel like a big disturbance. They didn t want to accept my credit card as they thought ( wrongly ) it was a debit card. Using a keyboard on the computer? Well one finger is enough for that, isn t it? Explanations where the restaurant is or Spa or Pool or when it is open? No. Hey why should they explain you that, no? And that they had "forgotten" to give my credit card back, well.... When we entered finally our room, our luggage was not yet there ( they had taken it from us after exiting the car ). We gave them 10 more minutes and then called. They said it s on the way, in some seconds it will be there. Gave them 10 minutes more, called again... Ah it s not yet there, they will look and send it immediately. After 10 more minutes I went personally to the reception. Nobody was looking for our luggage. After insisting they started looking, but had no idea where our luggage was. To cut it short we had to wait more then one hour after arriving in our room and got no real excuse... They had put it in a wrong room, but did not know in which one. Finally we were able to use the pool, but only very briefly as they closed it very early. We have an electric car and upon the arrival the two chargers were taken. They promised me that immediately when one is freed they will charge my car. After dinner I went to the car with my second key and you guess it: Both chargers were free, but my car was not plugged in. I had to do it by myself. In the bathroom there are two dispensers for shampoo and soap: One broken, the other empty.. In the restaurant the smell of the fish at the neighbors table... well I wouldn't t eat that... And at the check out they tried to pay us the room twice.... Oh, did I mention that they also had lost our car keys?
