Brugge en rust.
Pros:

Locatie

Cons:

We huurde een vierdubbele kamer, echter kregen we een dubbele kamer en twee plooibedden. Dit gemeld men bood een extra kamer aan.

We really enjoyed 😊
Pros:

Magnifique vue sur le jardin depuis notre chambre, excellent petit-déjeuner, et un charmant jardin avec des jeux pour enfants qui ont beaucoup plu à ma fille.

Cons:

Travaux de construction ( rénovation ) dans le couloir à cote de l'ascenseur et à l'entrée de l'hôtel

Stressful and unpleasant.
Pros:

The ballroom and grounds were beautiful

Cons:

The bedroom and bathroom were terrible. White, plain walls. The bedroom had a bed, built in desk and a chair. Absolutely no frills. Definitely not as shown on their website. Bathroom same. No towel rails. Construction materials lining the walls at the lift. Health and safety?
Parking was inaccessible due to all the construction vehicles. Functions in the ballroom leaving nowhere for guests to sit. Breakaway group from a conference used the ballroom while we were having breakfast. Money grabbing establishment

Prachtig kasteel maar niet persoonlijk gemaakt
Pros:

De tuin
De eetzaal
De geluidswerende ramen aan de voorzijde
Verduisterende gordijnen
Tapijt in de kamer

Cons:

Rondstappen in een bouwput met in de gang allemaal dozen die ook opgeruimd konden worden
Aankomend bij het ontbijt, zijn de gebruikte tafels niet afgeruimd
Geen goedemorgen gewenst door het personeel
Hele badkamer was nat na het douchen ondanks dat we voorzichtig probeerden te doen
Geen ventilatie in badkamer
Slang van de bad kraan was te kort naar de douche
Sfeerloze kamer; geen enkel detail aan de wand om het wat huiselijker te maken

Cons:

La reno mériterait des materiaux plus qualitatifs.
