Reviews and Ratings
I had a bit of a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, though a bit stuffy with poor air circulation, were eventually comfortable after some adjustment, despite the old furniture and minor issues. The service, especially in the restaurant and cafe, was outstanding, with attentive and polite staff. The location, overlooking the beautiful sea and lake, was stunning but had some noise disturbances. The dining was satisfactory but could use more variety. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
