Pros:

Nice property, especially for kids. Staff was nice, but not very helpful.

Cons:

We were given a room overlooking the parking instead of the vineyards. The staff told us they just show the rooms with the nice view for “marketing reasons”. As the view was one of the main factors to book the place this was very disappointing and staff didn’t handle that appropriately.

A luxurious and memorable stay with excellent amenities, dining, and experiences throughout.
Pros:

A beautiful historic property that exudes understated luxury. The rooms are well maintained, the bed is exceptionally comfortable, and the bathroom was more spacious than expected. The swimming pool is stunning, breakfast was enjoyable, and there are plenty of engaging activities to experience around the farm. There are also multiple on-site restaurants serving excellent food at very reasonable prices.

Cons:

There was absolutely nothing to dislike about our stay.

Great stay at a historic wine estate
Pros:

Laborie is a stunning wine estate. The room type features beautiful vineyard views, is very spacious, comfortable and clean. Exceptional breakfast, great staff.

Cons:

I guess with certain rates come certain expectations. Compared to other upmarket wine estates, we found the overall experience very good, but not exceptional. One example are the amenities provided in the room or the service at the pool. In addition, the water pump located near the balcony (room 3) made a lot of noise.

Relaxing stay in great accommodation
Pros:

Absolutely loved the wine estate. Rooms were incredibly large with the best facilities. Looking forward to our next stay when the Spa will be built and this will add another dimension.

Cons:

Lack of managerial presence. It would have been lovely if a senior member of staff checked-in on the guests occasionally to make them feel valued.

Pros:

Wspaniała posiadłość, przepiękna Winnica, rewelacyjna jakość pościeli, materaca i ręczników. Bardzo dobre śniadanie ala carte, wybór ze szwedzkiego stołu średni. Kosmetyki w łazience prima sort.

Cons:

Zarezerwowałam pokój z woskiem na winnicę, otrzymałam z widokiem na parking. Niestety hotel nie stanął w tym aspekcie na wysokości zadania. Poza tym brak uwag.

Not as nice as last year.
Pros:

We had understood from media reports that only Giovanni’s Restaurant had burnt down, whereas the fire had also destroyed the accommodation block containing the rooms we had booked. We were therefore upgraded to a suite, which was nice and the room was really large and comfortable.

Cons:

The breakfast buffet was not great, all the hot food was cold. Both days of our visit. The swimming pool and area is far too small with insufficient sun beds and umbrellas. We had the impression that the facilities were a bit overcrowded after the fire.

Always home from home for us!
Pros:

Beautiful location.

Cons:

Breakfast options are only a few, and the buffet is not too good. Also, there is a pump of some kind outside of the rooms that makes sitting outside unpleasant.
