Reviews
The service was outstanding — the staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive. The rooms were spotless, and the lovely complimentary dessert in each room was such a thoughtful touch. It truly brightened up even the cloudy weather outside.
We also visited the sauna, and everything we needed was already prepared in the room — bathrobes, slippers, fresh towels — all perfectly clean and comfortable. It made the whole experience feel very well organized and relaxing.
The food was delicious. Dinner was beautifully presented and felt refined, while breakfast was served as a buffet. It may not have been extremely extensive, but there was definitely something for everyone to enjoy.
Overall, a big thank you to the entire team. This is definitely a hotel we would love to return to!
High price restaurant, old-fashioned wellness under reconstruction, nice breakfast, loud service place behind hotel
The beds were comfortable. We had a little balcony overlooking the garden. The only thing that I would change is the room was small.
I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys great food and drink and service.😊
Parking a little ways away.
Only complaint is that smokers use the area in front of the hotel so you cannot use your balcony or leave your room window open as the smoke drifts in; nor is it nice to sit outside in the garden for the same reason.
