Pros:

The food in the restaurant was good, particularly dinner.
The hotel was very convenient for the event at the castle- the reason for the visit.

Cons:

Reception really seemed to be inefficient.
Some language difficulties early on.
The first evening the bar and restaurant were seriously understaffed.
Sometimes Faulty Towers came to mind!

Brilliant location, comfortable rooms, friendly staff.
Pros:

Super location and friendly helpful staff. Comfortable rooms and lovely decor throughout the hotel. The breakfast was nice.

Cons:

The only thing that I didn't like was that to order room service you had to use a mobile phone, and there was no network coverage in the room, so I had to go to reception.
