The room and hotel overall was very clean, the staff super polite and helpful and the say was overall excellent. We will stay here again in the future.
So ive stay here before in September 2025. Overall a beautiful hotel and in general the staff are polite. The chambermaids and maintenance man were especially nice and friendly. Sunday morning breakfast there was one rude woman serving the cook as you want part. However its a good base for what I needed during my stay. If I returned I would stay again
The hotel was, clean, friendly, well located, an overall good spot. It was a little disappointing that the pool closed for the season the day we arrived as the temperature was 30, other than, we had a great Time!
Location, beauty, staff. This is a lovely hotel steeped in history of the area. It has large elegant paintings throughout the hotel. The lobby has elegant, period furniture and is quite large. We always stay at this hotel.
The hotel is a short walk to the town, but there were coffee shops and a few places to eat very close to the hotel. The only bad thing about the hotel which didn’t bother me too much is that you can hear people outside of the room and above. I was in the first room room by the elevator 1st floor. I would stay there again.
The hotel was really nice and the room clean and spacious even though didnt have a balcony and didnt have any great view. As i can tell they had empty rooms so i cant tell why they didnt offer us any of the nice rooms with a view. .. Maybe ask for it when you book... The staff was really polite especially the front office.. The service over the pool needs to get some improvements since it took ages to get the menu n after that 2 order but in general a beautiful hotel on a reasonable price.

Disliked: Staff & service
Underwhelming experience
Unfortunately the SPA and Gym were shut and that was one of the main reasons for choosing the hotel. The pool was amazing and a great relief from the heat. There seemed to be some mixup with the reservation and the front desk staff were not helpful especially for a 5 star hotel, they finally addressed the issue and seemed to blame Hotels.com rather than take responsibility. I would not stay there again
