Fabulous
Fabulous hotel. Beautiful, clean, comfy rooms. Little extras in the room were a lovely touch. Bed and pillows super comfy. The room was large and well decorated and maintained. The hotel was very well presented and in pristine condition. The staff were all lovely. The restaurant served delicious food. Slightly more expensive than normal but well worth it. We would go back for sure.

Stayed for one night. When we got to our room we were greeted with a personalized noted and treats. Every staff we interacted with was amazing and went above and beyond to help. Dinner at the restaurant was one or favorite meals ever. I wish I could eat here every night. Room was spacious and beautifully decorated and designed. If you have a dog this place is very pet friendly.

Comfy room stay
Such a pretty room with lovely features. Interior was stunning and location was also great. Comfortable bed and everything was spotless. The complimentary treats in the room were a nice touch. Only con is no air con, and was a little stuffy at night even with window open!
