The hotel has some nice perks like very friendly and helpful service and a vg buffet dinner in the evenings. However, the lack of phones in the rooms to call reception located 200 meters away can be inconvenient.

I had a last-minute booking on a dark and rainy night, but luckily, the room was spacious with a wonderful view. The service was a bit of a mixed bag, with some staff being less helpful, but others working hard to keep everything spotless. The location, though lacking a bit of character, was peaceful with lovely views of the hills. The dining experience was average at best, with limited options and mediocre food, but the happy hour drinks were a good deal.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with spacious and modern rooms offering a nice view over a little lake. Being away from the parking lot kept noise at bay, but the room size felt a bit small for the price. The service was exceptional, from fixing issues promptly to providing local knowledge and arranging additional stays in unexpected situations. The location was peaceful, although dining options were limited and a bit overpriced. Overall, a comfortable and welcoming hotel with a few room-related drawbacks.
