Spa and restaurant
It’s a great idea to reserve breakfast here and share a meal while a couple people take advantage of the spa treatments. You can also use the pool, the ham man, sauna or jacuzzi while you wait for your treatment

Smaller version of the Manor shopping centers that can be found around Switzerland. Has a great food store with a good wine selection, as well as shopping for household goods as well as clothes and some electronics.
Pharmacy located in the shopping center on first floor across from the entrance to the food market.
Only a 10 minute drive from the apartment so well worth it. Underground parking available. This is free for the first hour but you still have to get your ticket stamped in the payment machine.
