Lovely hotel, friendly staff, wonderful breakfast buffet, nice spa, great location on beautiful park right next to Old Town. Unfortunately, my bath drain was clogged when I arrived and I had to get it fixed on three separate occasions during my five-night stay. While response from staff was immediate, they did not seem particularly concerned when i approached front desk staff the final time and told them this had already happened already two times prior. Overall, nice stay, but 5 stars is a bit generous.

Very welcoming staff, but the rooms, facilities and breakfast didn't feel like 5 star hotel. We have stayed in many other 3-4 star hotels in the same area for half the cost that felt more like 5 star hotels.

Staying at this hotel was an absolute dream! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The room was impeccably clean and beautifully designed, offering breathtaking views. The amenities were top-notch, from the luxurious spa to the exquisite dining options. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, catering to our every need with grace and efficiency. We left feeling pampered, rejuvenated, and already planning our next visit. Truly a five-star experience in every sense!
