Hotel super calmo e lindo
Pros:

O que mais gostámos foi o espaço incrível que tem para as crianças com muito entretenimento e a simpatia dos funcionários.
A vista do nosso quarto era linda e ambiente super calmo e tranquilo.

Cons:

Não gostámos do colchão era mesmo muito desconfortável e ao final de uma semana ficámos com dores nas costas.
De salientar também que a piscina apesar de ser linda e enorme estava sempre suja deveriam de limpar ao longo do dia tal como a piscina das crianças.

Personal, Essen, Kinderbetreuung und Ambiente so top, dass man wieder kommen möchte
Pros:

Es kommt selbst in sehr guten Hotels selten vor, dass ein jeder und ein jede des Personal stets so freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit ist. Das hat gefallen und schaffte eine lässige und dauerentspannte Atmosphäre. Respekt! Übrigens: Wir empfanden das frische Frühstück im stilvollen Ess-Saal mit grosser Veranda zum grossen Garten und Golfplatz als top.

Cons:

Das *****Hotel ist eher klassisch-stilvoll wie ein Business-Klub als modern im Design. Und wenn man unbedingt etwas Negatives finden will, bleibt im Badezimmer bspw. anzumerken, dass ein inzwischen schlecht zu öffnender 08/15-Metall-Abfalleimer durch eine stilvolle Alternative ersetzt werden könnte.
