Reviews and Ratings
The hotel exceeded my expectations with beautifully finished rooms and a cozy log fire, though slightly smaller than anticipated. The service was exceptional, especially from Nicholas, Charlie, Brook, and Florian. The peaceful location was perfect for exploring the area, and the dining experience was pleasant with a good selection. The overall experience was top-notch with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel is a mixed bag with some positive aspects but also a few drawbacks. The rooms were swift to move us the following morning to a superb room and immaculate, with no blemishes or marks of any kind. However, they look great on the surface but need a refresh, with broken switches and seeming a bit tired in places.
The rooms were extremely comfy with a fantastic bed and a spacious layout, but some noise from the stairwell was a bit bothersome. The plain greyish carpet was not the most soothing choice, though the overall space was impressive with a large main room, walk-in wardrobe, and beautiful bathroom with both bath and shower facilities.
The hotel was a lovely experience with luxurious and comfortable rooms, excellent shower facilities, and great water stream pressure. The service was friendly and inviting, though there was room for improvement. The stunning location, fabulous surroundings, and well-maintained facilities added to the charm of the stay.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms that are impeccably clean and well-equipped, though some light may filter through from the hallway. The service is top-notch, with a professional and genuinely friendly team taking care of guests. The location is stunning, overlooking the lake and providing easy access to nearby attractions. Dining options are varied and delicious, catering to different preferences. Overall, it's a great choice for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
