We had a lovely stay at the hotel. The spa experience was absolutely sensational, and the staff really went out of their way to make us feel welcome. However, the breakfast service needs some improvement, as there were long waits and some items ran out. Overall, it's a mixed bag; while the spa and staff are great, the dining experience fell short of expectations for a 5-star hotel.

Our family had a wonderfully memorable long weekend at this hotel. The upgrade to the presidential suite was a delightful surprise, providing a luxurious and spacious environment for our stay. The breakfast was outstanding, with a wide range of delicious options. While we didn't get to enjoy the spa due to having the kids with us, it looks amazing and we can't wait to return for some us-time. Overall, it's an excellent choice for families seeking a bit of luxury and relaxation in a beautiful setting.

Our stay at the hotel was memorable due to the welcoming atmosphere and the wonderful spa experience. However, the room had some cleanliness issues and the breakfast service left much to be desired, making it feel more like a 4-star than a 5-star experience. While the hotel's charm and the staff's efforts were appreciated, attention to detail in the rooms and dining would be beneficial.
