Bon séjour
Pros:

La localisation est parfaite, l’hôtel a été plutôt bien rénové.
Les chambres sont confortables.
L’emplacement, la vue !

Cons:

Le personnel n’est pas toujours agréable. Une dispute a éclatée entre la masseuse et le barman à côté de nous par exemple.

Il y a beaucoup d’activités de externe : mariage, séminaire, soirée salsa, ce qui ne rend pas le cadre très calme.

Les massages sont ouverts aux externes donc difficiles d’avoir de la place pendant notre séjour.

Enfin, il n’est pas possible d’avoir une formule petit déjeuner light : café croissant par exemple qui pourrait être pratique pour les gens qui voyagent ou qui partent en randonnée tôt.

Hôtel très bien situé, la chambre était très belle, confortable, et le personnel très sympathique. Beaucoup de petits restaurants à proximité et le cadre est vraiment magnifique, en particulier la zone entourant la piscine de l'hôtel ! On reviendra très certainement !

Pros:

All went well from check in to check out, Staff is very friendly and helpful. Service is 100%.
We loved to stay there.

Cons:

The Restaurant should be taken more care off, it looks more like a cantiene, no atmosphere. Some cushions should be replaced, there was skim on them. Otherwise food wise we can say much as we been out eating nearby.
