Nie wieder
Pros:

Die Lage des Schlosses war hervorragend und auch Annehmlichkeiten.

Cons:

Uns wurde trotz mehrerer Interventionen ein Zimmer ohne Aussicht mit Blick auf Wände und Stein zugeteilt. Booking hat uns ein Zimmer mit Aussicht auf die Weinberge oder den Park zugesichert (Zimmer Nr. 121). Es hat weder eine Entschuldigung vor Ort noch einen Nachlass des enormen Zimmerpreises daraus resultiert. Bei einem Zimmerpreis von über Euro 450 pro Nacht eine Frechheit. Der lapidare Satz an der Reception war: wir haben kein anderes Zimmer für diese Nacht. Wir dürfen die 2. Nacht wechseln.
