Ok but not as good as it used to be
6.0Location is great, nice views from room.
− No aircon, I know it’s an old building but they could add aircon units on roof. Pool needs renovating. Bedrooms aren’t up to scratch for 5* hotel (already raised with mgmt).
Mehr Schein als Sein. Kein 5 Sterne Hotel.
7.0Das Anwesen und das Grundstück waren beeindruckend. Die antike Einrichtung und Mobiliar hatten einen besonderen Flair. Größtenteils freundliches Personal.
− Stickiges und kleines Zimmer ohne Klimaanlage. Das Bad war wie eine Sauna, scheinbar ohne funktionierenden Abzug. Hellhörige Zimmer. Das Personal wusste größtenteils nicht was sie genau machen sollen und konnte sich nichts merken. Teilweise wirklich dilettantisches Verhalten.

3.0Location
− No aircon ! It was boiling ! We were provided fans that were not even working
Prachtige locatie met fijne luxe om je heen!
9.0Alles
− Niets
Vakkert sted med flott natur.
8.0Fantastisk beliggenhet og arkitektur. Nydelig mat. Bra opplegg for aktiviteter. Fantastisk «mindfullness» tur rundt i området. Veldig bra kvalitet på restaurantene.
− Litt upersonlig og følelsen av «masse turisme». Litt preg av «golf hotell».
