Satisfied. But some areas to improve.
Pros:

Satisfied. Location is good.

Cons:

Tea bags are poor quality. Keep a rack to hang wet clothes. Table with at least a chair are essential. Carpets to be provided for each bed.

Beautiful
Pros:

Rauhallinen, Vuoristo. Jos halua todella unohtaa mailman murheet ja irrottautua arjesta ja nauttia hiljaisuudesta ja upeasta vuoristosta.... Tämä on se paikka.

Poor experience. Felt falsely advertised compared to the photos online. No atmosphere and dead staff
Pros:

The view from the room.

Cons:

Firstly, there is a giant generation below all of the luxury rooms which creates a big noise throughout the day. The rooms are fine but some issues like the poor shower drainage. The service and the restaurant was very poor. There is no atmosphere created by the staff or the restaurant, everything is very empty and clinical. No music or friendly service/chat from the staff. They didn't want to make local food, just offering fried rice and noodles. In a high end hotel this is just unacceptable. They reluctantly made 3 or 4 curries which were delivered to the rooftop restaurant in a very loud lift mechanism which was very bizarre. This is meant to be an eco-hotel but there are unnecessary lights everywhere, and single use plastics in the room. Absolutely no unique concept to this hotel and the staff don't understand what good service is.

By the way, the photos online are of another 'Tara' branch (IE. Photos of a chef and a swimming pool). They don't have any of this in Rakwana.
