Super, außer der Lärm in der Nacht
Pros:

Wirklich eine tolle Unterkunft. Wunderschöne Zimmer, schöne Aussicht und super freundliches Personal.
Auch das Essen war genial.

Cons:

Das Einzige das wirklich negativ war, war der Lärm in der Nacht aufgrund der Kanaldeckel vor dem Hotel. Man hörte jedes Auto und leider sind auf dieser Straße sehr viele Autos unterwegs.
Schlafen konnte man erst später, wenn dann nicht mehr so viele Autos gefahren sind. Da sollte man wirklich was dagegen tun. Auch wenn es ein ansonsten ein toller Aufenthalt war, würden wir es aufgrund des Lärms nicht nochmal buchen.

Enjoable and comfortable.
Pros:

The decor was beautiful, the staff were knowledgable and helpful and the hotel was comfortable. the location was excellent, and the food choices were really good.

Cons:

The room was on the second floor with no lift, so it was a bit of a struggle with the cases. the room had a lovely view but was short of drawer storage/
