Bel hôtel, mais trop bruyant
Pros:

Le personnel aux petits soins et très gentil, bel hôtel. Le restaurant est très bien, avec une piscine très bien entretenue, le petit déjeuner est bien aussi mais peut-être pas au niveau d’un 5 étoiles

Cons:

Beaucoup d’anglais très bruyants et mal élevés, en sachant que les chambres sont très mal insonorisées. C’est dommage.

Luxury experience for a reasonable price.
Pros:

Absolutely stunning. I think the hotel has just been refurbished so it has a really modern feel. The breakfast was great every morning and the restaurant staff were very attentive. The bar staff were equally as polite and friendly. It was a brilliant experience, really refreshing to see a team that cares so much about their guests.

Cons:

We really enjoyed the pool area but we were sometimes left for quite some time without staff so it was difficult to order food/drink. We also noticed that the pool area can become quite messy as they don’t seem to clean up until the end of the day.
