Fairmont Heritage Place, Franz Klammer Lodge

Fairmont Heritage Place, Franz Klammer Lodge

8/10 Good
"Very nice older property right near Gondola. No ac in rooms and windows shut so quite warm when we checked in. The hot tubs and pool were very nice. We had some plumbing issues. Probably a bit overpriced compared to some other properties nearby. We were attending the bluegrass festival and that was fantastic!"
