Pros:

Service exceptional from reception to bar man and everyone was just too friendly. The premises are exceptional, and the view very tranquil.

Cons:

The TV did not have all the sport channels and the bed was a bit noisy, I think it needs a bit of oil or Q20... but not too bad just that it can be more quiet as I've seen in some top class hotels

Es lebt vom Glanz vergangener Tage
Pros:

Die Anlage ist grundsätzlich sehr schön gestaltet und wirkt insgesamt sehr grün und gepflegt. Die Zimmer waren ordentlich ausgestattet und boten alles, was man für einen Aufenthalt benötigt. Besonders positiv hervorzuheben ist das Frühstück, das eine sehr umfangreiche Auswahl bot und qualitativ überzeugt hat. Das hauseigene-Shuttle war wirklich sehr gut.

Cons:

Leider hat man an vielen Stellen gesehen, dass Teile der Anlage dringend renoviert werden müssten. Es gab zahlreiche beschädigte oder stark abgenutzte Bereiche – etwa abgeplatzte Stellen an der Fassade oder an Einrichtungsgegenständen sowie stark durchgesessene Stühle.

Auch der Service hat uns enttäuscht. Obwohl viele Mitarbeitende vor Ort waren, wirkte der Einsatz des Personals teilweise unkoordiniert. Besonders negativ war unser Besuch im hoteleigenen Sauvage-Restaurant, das sehr gut bewertet ist und für das wir einen Tisch reserviert hatten. Trotz nur weniger besetzter Tische und zwei Mitarbeitenden war das Gesamterlebnis leider sehr schwach.

Die Weinkarte bot lediglich zwei offene Weißweine und ein bis zwei offene Rotweine – überraschend wenig für eine Weinregion. Ein Glas Sparkling Wine zum Aperitif war laut Personal nicht verfügbar, da „Ende des Monats“ sei und keine Bestände mehr vorhanden seien. Alternativen wurden nicht angeboten.

Auch beim Essen gab es Probleme – die Entenbrust war nicht durchgebraten und beeinträchtigte das Geschmackserlebnis. Seitens des Personals gab es auch keine Rückfrage, ob es geschmeckt hat. Zusätzlich wurde die Rechnung handschriftlich übertragen, obwohl ein digitaler Ausdruck vorlag, und dabei falsch (mehr) berechnet.

Positiv ist, dass sich der Hoteldirektor im Nachgang bei uns gemeldet und für die Situation entschuldigt hat. Dennoch muss man sagen, dass das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis insgesamt nicht überzeugt.

Die Sauberkeit lies sehr zu Wünschen übrig. In meinem Zimmer waren noch Haare vom vorherigen Gast zu finden.

Staff training lacking
Pros:

Quiet

Cons:

There is NO privacy. On 3 separate occasions we had maintenance or housekeeping staff waltz into our room unannounced while we were in the room. The 3rd time was after we complained and with a do not disturb sign on the door. We even had a maintenance person sweeping out private balcony while we were showering. Twice, we also found replaced bath towels that had eye makeup on them and were not cleaned properly.
