Agradável e confortável
Pros:

O Steve (recepcionista) foi muito amável e atencioso desde do inicio, a nossa estadia foi muito tranquila.
O Pequena almoço foi servido com cuidado. A decoração e o design interior do hotel criaram um ambiente acolhedor e confortável.
Voltaremos com melhor tempo, para desfrutar plenamente do hotel e da vista.

Cons:

Infelizmente, devido ao mau tempo, não havia muitas opções de lazer dentro do hotel, pois apenas existe piscina exterior.

Pros:

It’s a beautiful property and Steve the representative went above and beyond

Cons:

Had to request firewood and fire, starters and kindling for a room that had a fireplace that should come equipped. It was a lot of work for the staff to try and pull that together in the moment and it is cold in that room again your staff represented the property with great professionalism and attempting to respond in the moment

Pros:

Arrivé de nuit par la route de montagne ( venant de Lisbonne) , par grosse pluie et brouillard, j'étais content que l'hôte m'attende pour tout m'expliquer...avec la petite bouteille de vin. Déjeuner avec oeufs sur mesure, super décor (plusieurs salons, fauteuils, balcon), superbe vue le matin suivant avec gros soleil.

Cons:

En janvier dans les montagnes, il fait froid. Probablement parce que l'hotel était presque vide, ma chambre était glaciale. Ça a pris plusieurs heures au chauffage avant de réchauffer tout ça. Heureusement, il y avait 2 grosses couvertures de laine. Au réveil tout était parfait
