1920 flair with lake views
Pros:

1920 flair with great views. It had a bathtub

Cons:

The restaurant is a bit overpriced for the quantity and taste, but that can be subjective. We were surprised to see the waiter try to pour white wine over the finished red wine in the glass..

Pros:

Breakfast was ok, regular

Cons:

The hotel is very weary, both the room and the common areas. Lack of good management is obvious. It's unfrtunate, as the property itself is great.

Wij hebben een fantastisch veblijf ervaren.
Pros:

zeer goed ontbijt, ruime keuze.
Het grote zwembad met veel zonneweide en voldoende ligbedden met parasols.
De poolbar en loungeveld waar je lekker kunt lunchen en een drankje kunt doen.
Ruime en schone kamers.

Cons:

Het hotel is historisch met slechts 1 kleine lift
De toegang tot de kamers geschied nog door gebruik van een sleutel met een zware metalen oncomfortabele hanger.

Door het prachtige zwembad, de rust, het vriendelijke personeel, ruime kamer, mooi uitzicht en erg goed restaurant komen
Pros:

Het zwembad was prachtig en lag in een hele mooie ruime tuin. Ook verder leuke zitjes buiten en genoeg zonnebedjes. Mooie grote kamer met goede airco en ruime badkamer.

Cons:

Het mooie oude gebouw heeft zijn charmes maar is ook echt oud, vloerbedekking, kitranden. Het ontbijt mag echt wel wat beter.
