My stay at Khyber was absolutely enchanting, bringing together stunning views, warm hospitality, and comfortable accommodations. The rooms were spacious and elegantly designed, but some minor service delays occurred that could use attention. The dining options were diverse, though I felt some dishes were overpriced. The location was incredible, just steps away from skiing activities and breathtaking scenery.

The rooms were spacious and provided stunning views, while the dining options were delicious, albeit with some room for improvement in variety.

My stay at The Khyber Resort was nothing short of a magical experience. The breathtaking views from my room and the elegant design of the hotel really took my breath away.

My stay at the Khyber was quite memorable, thanks to its stunning views and attentive staff. The location near the gondola and amidst breathtaking pine trees is perfect for enjoying the snowy landscape. The rooms, however, left something to be desired, as ours was on the ground floor and didn't provide the comfort I was hoping for. Dining was another highlight with excellent breakfast options, though dinner was a bit pricey for what it offered.
