It was great and I loved my stay.

Peu mieux faire

7.0

La chambre était conforme bien que plus petite que les 30m2 annoncés : la literie était très confortable et l’air conditionné marchait très bien et silencieux Belle vue sur le château

− La salle du petit déjeuner était affreusement bruyante , le personnel bruyant et peu attentionné ! On se serait cru dans un réfectoire ou une cantine ! Le choix du buffet est correct sans plus !! Vraiment pas d’un niveau d’un 5 étoiles ! Le restaurant Michelin 1* était vraiment moyen : très très peu dans l’assiette et que 2 desserts au choix (un déjà épuisé à 21h) Bref : pour le prix de la chambre , tout de même FRS 780.- par nuit , on s’attend à bien bien mieux
