The hotel offers beautiful rooms with lovely views from the windows, but they need to be fully tested before being released. The service is brilliant, although the children's bed placement could be improved. I found the beds to be nice and excellent for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were lovely, spacious, well-appointed with a really nice bathroom complete with a large bath and a very good shower. Dinner and breakfast were great. The room was wonderful, overlooking the gardens and very comfortable, big enough for us and our dog. However, it was a bit challenging with no air conditioning and a window that only opened about three centimeters.
