It was our second time visiting. A fantastic building, great view, roof-top swimming pool... Exceptional staff, perfectly balancing formality of a high-end hotel service and relaxed vacation atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to help us locate and retrieve our lost luggage on the way from the airport. They showed they truly cared.

It needs to be made clear that parking is not easy; you either put the car into a parking lot and walk back to the hotel or the hotel takes care of it for 50 euros a day. Second-the bathtub wall is very high and getting in for a shower or bath will be difficult for some.
The breakfast is excellent; the staff very nice and beautiful room
and if you have difficulty -that is a problem
