great location large rooms good water pressure slow communication underwhelming dining hit miss service

the hotel has a great location. the rooms are large with all amenities including a hair dryer and flat iron. i found the shower had good water pressure.

the service from the staff was hit and miss. arranging spa treatments through the whatsapp number was slow. i found the bar and casual dining underwhelming.

mixed feelings about this stay

outdated decor rude staff

the hotel location was acceptable for exploring the area.

The room i stayed in seemed outdated. the decor and fittings could use some refreshing, it reminded me of it needed a little tlc. also. some of the staff were not very friendly. They were quite rude and not apologetic, and it did not feel like five-star service. I found this quite disappointing.

mixed experience at a historic building

dark room sewage smell

The room i occupied felt quite dark, despite the building's beauty. a tiny slit served as a window, a bit depressing. the lack of natural light. also, i noticed a sewage smell in the bathroom each morning. the smell worsened throughout my stay. I informed reception, but the issue remained unresolved.

premium toiletries king size bed restful sleep attentive staff

the hotel seemed like a dream i never wanted to wake from i awoke each morning to a room bathed in gentle light i found premium toiletries and a high-end hairdryer to be nice touches the king size bed seemed like a cloud, each night brought a deep restful sleep i treasured. the staff were great ready to assist with any request i appreciated how clean it was too.

the plunge pool on the roof was small it was still pretty but not ideal for a proper swim
