The staff were wonderful, going above and beyond to make our stay exceptional
Pros:

The hotel is in a beautiful and tranquil traditional courtyard setting. A pleasure to be there. We very much appreciated the peaceful surroundings, and the helpful and attentive staff. The breakfasts were wonderful, again in a peaceful setting.

Cons:

The sound of footsteps in the room above was a bit disturbing on occasion - but overall didn’t detract

Classic old world hotel with modern, very comfortable amenities.
Pros:

Everything. This hotel is absolutely gorgeous. From the minute you walk in you are captivated by the courtyard, the pond and the old world style. The staff were friendly and English speaking. The breakfast was fabulous as well as the comfort and style of the restaurant. The bed and bathroom were clean comfortable and worked well.

Cons:

Nothing.

Fantastisch
Pros:

Karakteristieke setting. Idyllisch. Meteen in vakantiesferen. Sfeervol. Wij vonden het prachtig en de kamers romantisch. Bedden lekker. Badkamer ruim en schoon. Appartement schoon. Super vriendelijk personeel. Ontbijt lekker

Cons:

Iets te warm als je het niet gewend bent op de hele warme dagen (2e nacht raakten we zelf al meer gewend). Geen airco, wel een goede ventilator.
