I had a fantastic weekend stay at this luxurious hotel, surrounded by beautiful gardens and stunning architecture. The spacious and comfortable rooms provided lovely views, and the spa experience was tailored to perfection. I particularly enjoyed the excellent dining options available, though the service charge for the afternoon tea left a slight disappointment. Overall, it was an extraordinary experience that I can't wait to repeat.

My stay at the resort spa was quite memorable overall. The luxurious ambiance and beautiful architecture really caught my attention. I experienced outstanding spa treatments that truly elevated my trip. Unfortunately, the restaurant next door had below-average food, which was disappointing given the quality I expected. However, the main hotel definitely made up for it with exceptional service and facilities.

My stay at the hotel was fortunate enough to be set against beautifully maintained grounds, creating a lovely backdrop for my visit. While the ambiance of the hotel was inviting and upscale, the experience was marred by the inadequate service at dining venues and room amenities that fell short of initial expectations. Overall, it feels like the hotel could enhance its offerings to align better with its four-star rating.

Rooms

The room I stayed in was clean but cramped, with amenities that barely accommodated two guests despite being advertised as a Superior Deluxe. The limited amenities made it feel less luxurious.

The location is stunning, surrounded by rolling hills and picturesque scenery, but navigating to some facilities within the hotel can be confusing.
Dining

Dining left much to be desired; service was chaotic at times, and the food variety felt limited. My experience at the fine dining venue was disrupted by noise from children, dulled the evening.
Facilities

The facility layout was a maze to navigate, and the spa experience was less relaxing due to its confusing layout and limited access to amenities like robes and extra towels.

Overall, the hotel has beautiful grounds and a welcoming vibe, especially from the staff. The rooms were comfortable, but they didn't quite match the luxurious feel of the public areas. While the dining options had some potential, I found them to be lacking in quality, and the service could use some improvement. Despite these issues, I appreciated the stunning surroundings and the effort made by the staff to create a pleasant atmosphere.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, where the staff truly made me feel valued and welcome. The luxurious rooms offered great comfort and were well-kept. However, some aspects of the dining experience fell short of expectations, particularly at breakfast. The newly refurbished areas are stunning, but I felt that the service could have been more attentive during peak times. Overall, I look forward to returning for another relaxing getaway.
