Really lovely hotel and a very high standard . It didn’t feel at 5 star level for restaurant, bar,
Pros:

The hotel building and grounds are exceptional. We had a beautiful suite and gorgeous linen on the bed and towels in the bathroom.

Cons:

In our 5 star hotel you expect the little extras- evening turn down service, staff pre-empting your needs in the restaurant and bar. These aspects we felt were missing.

Not a family friendly experience , corners being cut are obvious in upkeep and limited, very young staff. All would be e
Pros:

The exterior is lovely. The pool and grounds really picturesque.

Cons:

Did not have the ambiance or guest services of a 5* hotel. Quite shockingly poor reception at check in. We were told all the family rooms were sold out, however we only saw one other child on the property. We did not realized the main hotel did not have air con, and thankfully we were moved to adjoining rooms in another part of the property. No special activities or welcome for the children as advertised on the website (activities, picnics, small bathrobes). Limited hours for children at the pool and we were told the children could not keep jumping into the water, despite them trying to carefully not splash others. Not a family friendly or fun/relaxed environment for parents. Our older children were playing during children’s pool hours. Seems like the hotel is currently under poor management. Very young, very limited staff expected to carry out a luxury experience for guests seems unfair. Food and drinks were underwhelming, especially for the price, and service was very slow. While some of the staff was engaging, most walked past us looking very stressed. We made reservations for dinner under the impression things were very full, only to arrive and see many empty tables. We were looking forward to a special stay and this location didn’t meet the mark.

A great place to unwind and relax.
Pros:

What a fabulous place to stay, a little bit of luxury to finish our 3 week Europe trip on and it delivered. My husband and I also had some spa services which were divine. The staff were very friendly and service was incredible. We would 100% visit again.
