Flott slott med perfekt beliggenhet for å dra på slotts-sightseeing
Pros:

Flott slott med veldig god frokost og middag og kjempestort rom med himmelseng.

Cons:

Gulvene knirket en del, men det er jo et gammelt bygg.

Pros:

Lite slottskänsla trots att det inte är ett slott.
Hjälpsam och trevlig personal
Maten på restaurangen. Härligt med halva priset på köttbiten när man är 60+. Perfekt stekt och otroligt gott kött.

Cons:

Lite slitet.

Comfortable stop over for one night
Pros:

The room was great - nicely furnished, spacious and comfortable.

Cons:

The general interior the hotel was ok but a bit tired and needs upgrading. Some of the castle themed fittings and decorative order all looked rather budget level including the bar - leaning towards hostel ambience rather than hotel. Floors are creaky and noisy. The location is Ok, nice trees, but not great on the edge of a very bland town.

Niet voor herhaling vatbaar
Pros:

De buitenkant van het hotel is prachtig, binnen is het vergaande glorie. Personeel achter de bar was fantastisch! Super leuke tijd gehad

Cons:

Bedden waren hard, kamers waren oud en hotel was niet echt schoon . Ook binnen was vergaande glorie. Ontbijt was heel minimaal en slechte koffie.

Our favorite part of our honeymoon!!
Pros:

First off it was a castle. It was up on a hill and its gated. We felt very safe. The grounds were adorable. Plenty of parking. Gorgeous place to drive up to.

Cons:

Nothing. We loved it all.

Lovely building but lower your expectations of your stay experience
Pros:

Lovely castle which is quite stunning to see on arrival

Cons:

Only saw one member of staff from arrival to bedtime. He did his best but seemed to be doing everything.
Unfortunately to the evening meal and menu were very poor. My husbands fish was overcooked and appeared to have been kept under a hot lamp for hours. The dining room tables were not clean either. It is a shame because this hotel has so much potential but definitely needs a revamped dining experience!!

Pros:

Der Kellner war super und hat vieles rsusgeholt

Cons:

Nicht sehr sauber, über 90min auf das Essen gewartet. Koch hat das Fleisch vom heissen Stein nicht im Griff. Kein Castle-Style von innen. Von aussen Top.
