The hotel boasts a great location with stunning grounds and offers a nice outdoor bar area. However, the dining experience was less than impressive, with long waits and overpriced meals that didn't meet the expected standards. There's also a notable lack of service quality that needs addressing, particularly for the high price point.

Our stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable, highlighted by a relaxing spa experience and a beautiful room, but the dining options, especially at breakfast, left something to be desired. While the service was attentive, we encountered some confusion during meal ordering that could be improved. Overall, a good value for a spa retreat, but with room for enhancement regarding food variety.

The hotel has a charming atmosphere with beautiful decor and a lovely spa, making for a pleasant stay overall. However, the service leaves much to be desired, especially during busy times, and the dining experience was inconsistent. While the rooms were comfortable, the facilities could use some updating. The pricing felt high for the quality of service received during my stay.

The hotel is beautifully set in stunning grounds and offers a relaxing atmosphere, making it perfect for a getaway. The spa facilities add to the overall experience, although there were some issues with the sauna and jacuzzi being out of order. Additionally, be prepared for parking fees that were unexpectedly high, which could be a letdown for some.
