Ein wunderbares Anwesen das wir jedem empfehlen der geschmackvollen Luxus genießen möchte.
Pros:

Eine aussergewöhnlich geschmackvolle Unterkunft mit kulturellem Stil in herrlicher Umgebung und sehr freundlichem und angenehmen Personal. Ein Platz um Ruhe zu finden und die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Ein Pool trägt zusätzlich zur Entspannung bei.

Cons:

Auf höchstem Niveau gibt es fast nichts zu verbessern. Das reichhaltigen Frühstücksbuffet war perfekt, mit diesem konnte das übrige Restaurantangebot leider nicht mithalten. Vom Sterne Restaurant hatten wir eine höhere Erwartung.

Très bel hôtel mais qui pourrait faire mieux
Pros:

Très joli lieu historique. Une vue magnifique sur la campagne et une très belle piscine.

Cons:

Le niveau de service n'est pas aligné avec le potentiel du lieu et le prix. Il manque l'attention aux détails comme par exemple les verres sales des clients qui ne sont pas enlevés autour de la piscine, le petit déjeuner est assez basique, ... dommage car le lieu est magnifique

The beauty of the location, the view and the size of the property help to forget all the bad things.
Pros:

The property is almost surreal... Nature, vegetation, view, outdoor pool (look and size), lawn, location.... I don't remember ever seeing anything like it..

Cons:

It's just unbelievable that the property isn't better maintained, everywhere you look everything is a bit worn out.... the parking lot is a disaster and the breakfast is at the level of a 3-star hotel..... I can understand that it's difficult to maintain such a large property, but such a breakfast is incomprehensible..
