Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is beautiful and perfect for events, and I loved how the wonderful staff greeted me. However, the rooms felt small and not as comfortable as I expected, and the dining experience was just mediocre. Overall, while there are great elements, it's not ideal if you're looking for spacious accommodations and a standout dining experience.
The hotel has some charming character, and the rooms are clean and comfortable, which made for a pleasant stay. I found the service to be amazing, as the staff was very attentive. However, the location wasn’t ideal, and there are no gardens or outdoor spaces since the venue is primarily used for events. Overall, it offers good value for money despite a few drawbacks.
The hotel provided a unique experience that felt like stepping into a historical movie, with clean rooms that were quite comfortable. However, I found it a bit disappointing that there was no lobby, garden, or outdoor space since everything seemed reserved for events. The service was excellent and very attentive, but the amenities were lacking.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice and clean with a character of their own, but they did have a slightly damp and mouldy smell. The service was a highlight, as the staff were friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, there was a lack of outdoor spaces available and the location is quite close to a highway, which isn't great. However, the facilities were adequate.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel, which was quite beautiful but had its downsides. The rooms were nice and clean, showcasing great character, but the lack of outdoor spaces and event-heavy schedule left little for guests to enjoy leisurely. The staff was friendly and attentive, though some areas like the dining experience could use improvement. Overall, it was a decent stay, but it’s worth considering the limited amenities before booking.
