Lovely hotel, nice spa, great location
Pros:

Nice rooms, great restaurants

Cons:

The hotel was great, but my booking.com experience wasn’t. It wasn’t made clear when I booked via the app that ‘breakfast included’ only meant continental breakfast. For a full breakfast we had to pay more. This was not the daily of the hotel, where the staff were very helpful.
