The hotel offers a beautiful and tranquil environment, surrounded by stunning views and a lovely lake. While the rooms are spacious, the standard of amenities could be improved for a more luxurious experience. The service is generally attentive, but there were issues with dining wait times and some discrepancies in billing. Overall, the location and facilities provide a charming experience, but some updates and better organization in the restaurant could enhance future visits.

My stay at the hotel was quite mixed, with beautiful grounds and a stunning room, but unfortunately, the noise levels and uncomfortable bed left me disappointed. The service was friendly and the breakfast was a highlight, but the overall experience was marred by some significant drawbacks. I would consider returning if improvements were made in room comfort and soundproofing.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, marked by stunning surroundings and lovely amenities. The rooms were exceptionally spacious, especially the four-poster bed, which added a touch of luxury to my experience. The dining options were fantastic, with a hearty breakfast that set the right tone for my day. However, during my stay, there was one issue with noise due to a wedding, and the service while at the bar could have been a tad quicker. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing getaway.
