Pros:

Todas las instalaciones eran nuevas. La habitación perfecta y amplia, parecía a estrenar. Las camas y almohadas limpias, también el baño. El spa pequeño pero completo, quizás por la fecha en estuvimos solo éramos dos parejas por hora, pero se estaba a gusto. El desayuno muy bueno y el personal pendiente de agradar. Además la relación calidad-precio es muy buena, recomiendo este hotel.

Cons:

Realmente todo salió bien, no encontré fallos.

Couldn’t find fault.

Pros:

I have now stayed at the hotel a number of times and will continue to do so. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, the rooms are to high standard including the dog friendly rooms. The food is excellent and they even have a dog friendly section in the restaurant.

Very enjoyable if we were that way again, we would probably stay there
Pros:

It was ideal for a stopover as it was just off the motorway there was a dog bed and bowl for the dog so she was well looked after there was a beautiful area surrounding the property so that we were able to walk and the spa was very enjoyable

Cons:

We were a little bit disappointed with the breakfast having stayed in many hotels. I would say it was one of the poor breakfast we’ve had as it was not a huge amount of choice.

Would recommend this beautiful, quiet hotel and location.
Pros:

Gorgeous property in quiet rural location, even despite the roadworks outside to reroute the main road. Lots of gardens and grounds with historic interest. Lovely outdoor infinity pool and bar area. Everywhere was dog friendly. The pool restaurant was very relaxed, overlooking a stork colony with sunset behind. Food was well presented and delicious.
We didn’t use the spa area so can’t comment on that.
Room was super clean, spacious, well presented with view over pool. Bed was incredibly comfortable. No road noise, just birdsong, cicadas and frogs - very peaceful.

Cons:

We skipped breakfast as thought that was a bit pricey; but there was coffee in the room which was a bonus.
We thought that an additional €40 as dog supplement was steep as there was nothing provided for this and was the most we have ever been charged on our travels, but overall it was worth it to stay in such a lovely establishment and have walks readily at hand.

Agradable y bonito hotel con buena localización pero el SPA no es su punto fuerte
Pros:

La localización es preciosa y el edificio también, el personal es muy amable

Cons:

El spa está bastante “dejado” el baño turco no funcionaba ni tampoco la máquina de hielos. En general las instalaciones de las piscinas del spa se ven anticuadas.
