    spacious room
    friendly staff
    delicious breakfast
    limited seating
    minor inconvenience

    The room was lovely and spacious, with a beautiful view from the window. The kids enjoyed the cozy corner where they could read their books. Dinner in the restaurant was fantastic with lots of options, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also plentiful and delicious, keeping everyone happy.

    Only one easy chair in the room.

    spacious room
    great spa
    tired decor

    We enjoyed a lovely spacious room and were pleasantly surprised with a free upgrade! The spa offered a soothing massage and relaxing steam room that really helped us unwind. The only downside was that the decor felt a bit tired, but overall, it didn’t take away from our great experience! 😊

    Such a cozy stay! The food was amazing, especially the fresh croissants at breakfast. Just a bit too warm in the room though. 🌞

    limited tv view

    The hotel offers a charming atmosphere with warm and friendly staff. The food was delicious, especially the breakfast, though there were a few hiccups, like the bed being a bit creaky and the room layout limiting the view of the TV. a cozy stay worth experiencing.

    friendly staff
    small meal portion

    good stay but disappointing dinner portion

    The hotel offered a warm ambiance throughout our stay, with the room being exceptionally tidy and inviting. The reception staff genuinely exceeded my expectations with their friendliness and attentiveness.

    The portion of my wife's meal left much to be desired.

    friendly staff
    cozy atmosphere
    bed comfort
    limited dining options

    we had a comfy stay in a deluxe double room, and the staff were super pleasant and helpful! the breakfast was excellent and really good value for money. we loved the old building's character and the gardens were well kept. also, the bar had a nice vibe with interesting murals!

    the bed couldve been a bit more comfy and it was a bummer that there weren't many options for dinner in the bar.

    cozy atmosphere

    Couples looking for a cozy getaway

    The staff were cute and went out of their way to. I loved lounging in the bar area, where I could just read while sipping coffee as the rain poured outside. It was a perfect way to unwind after a long journey.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but considering the service and comfort, it felt reasonable.

    excellent spa

    would definitely go again

    The classic plus double room was warm and cozy with great amenities like a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and free toiletries. The spa facilities, including a sauna and hot tub, were perfect for relaxation. Breakfast was a standout, with options like fresh local ingredients and delicious pastries. The bar had a nice vibe too!

    noisy room

    Our room in Classic Double category didn't match what we saw online. it was noisy from kitchen ventilation all night. After switching rooms for the second night, I found the new space was decorated better but had temperature control issues—too hot, and the windows didn’t open. Internet connectivity was also unreliable at times, adding to the frustration. Dining options at the bar were limited and poorly communicated, as we were told of a large party blocking food service only after arriving. The steam room’s maintenance appeared lacking as I had planned some spa time.
