Pros:

Great staff, clean facilities, amazing spa

Cons:

In the beginning we were given a super noisy room on top of the spa (on the ground floor), which caused a lot of discomfort, but fortunately the staff gave us a different room after we complained about the constant noise

A hotel with a beautiful garden and pool in a quiet area
Pros:

Great location in a quiet area away from the noisy city center. Clean facilities. Nice pool. Good dining area. Friendly staff. The spa is small but alright for one visit.

Cons:

The tennis rackets are old. They need new strings and grips. The staff doesn’t seem to know well what a good tennis racket should be like. The rooms don’t have tea kettles but one can ask for it. It came after a couple of reminders.

WE hadden een heerlijke vacantie en bij leven en welzijn keren we zeker een keer terug.
Pros:

Ontbijt was overweldigend,, lekker en zeer gevarieerd. Het zwembad was fijn verwarmd en groot. Zeer uitnodigend.
De rust ter plekke en in de omgeving was zeker een pluspunt.

Cons:

Zou het niet weten.

Pros:

Das Personal verdient ein großes Lob. Immer extrem freundlich und hilfsbereit. super!

Cons:

Als Alleinreisende ein Zimmer ganz unten und zur Nordseite. Also unmittelbar an den Sportanlagen und so ganz ohne Sonne. Es war dadurch im Februar sehr sehr kalt im Zimmer.

Uma experiência relaxante com um serviço excecional
Pros:

O destaque vai para a enorme simpatia e boa disposição de todos os funcionários, com uma menção especial para a equipa do buffet. A diversidade de oferta foi ótima, tanto no pequeno-almoço como ao jantar, mantendo a qualidade durante toda a estadia. O hotel é muito calmo e a piscina exterior aquecida é divinal, perfeita para os dias mais frescos.

Cons:

Nada que tenha impactado a minha estadia. Apenas como nota construtiva (que não será relevante para 99% dos hóspedes), a área do ginásio poderia ser um pouquinho mais desenvolvida.
