Impressive, modern, classy, and very clean property. Fantastic amenities, i.e, multiple pools, spa on property, and great dining. I was impressed the moment I walked into the lobby. We'll certainly be guest there again.

Excellent hotel with lovely pools and facilities. The gym is poor and shouldn’t have a surcharge, but everything else is great.
Great staff, and the pool bar is very convenient.
It’s a 20 minute walk to anything (each way) and the only way to and from the train station is by taxi which isjt cheap so bear that in mind

This is a lovely, slightly out of the way, four star hotel. Facilities are very good. Menu limited if staying for more than a few days but it’s very good food. Walking and public transport are a bit awkward but if you have a car there is no issue with that. The spa facilities are very nice. Best part of my stay!

The hot tub, hot pool, sauna and steam bath were extremely comfortable and a pleasure to use after a trip.
It's worth a day or two stay.
I enjoyed the baked lamb that they had a specialty that day. The house red wine was excellent.

Room walls are paper thin, lovely grounds but very tired building & rooms. Shower head was in need of clean as water went everywhere that’s assuming it didn’t fall out of its holder! Dinner was nice and staff all very friendly. We were only here for 1 night stop so it served its purpose.

Beautiful gardens and professional staff
Wonderful surroundings - the grounds are beautiful with well cured gardens. Staff are very professional and pleasant. Rooms are ok and airy. The main pool opened at 10am which was a bit late for us as we like to take an early dip. The only negative was the room sound proofing, where we could hear very well the people in the next room.

The bed is super hard. The food isn’t good. No coffee in the room. It’s more like a three star hotel. The blinds don’t actually keep the light out of the room.

Beautiful setting and gardens. Staff unfailingly friendly and helpful.A few. minor problems, most fixed promptly.Over-designed,irritating taps in basin which could not deliver a bowl of hot water.Shower panels fixed too high so it leaked.Endless repetitive 'dinner jazz' muzak. Food great but menu same daily unless you have 'half board' and no one, including hotels .com explained that the was an option

Es war wieder mal schön da zu sein. Der Garten wie immer ein Genuss, was nur schade war, dass man nicht schwimmen durfte ohne Bademeister. Wir sind alle alt genug, um zu wissen, dass man schwimmen gehen kann auf eigene Gefahr! Das linke nicht weiß was die rechte tut, war für uns auch eine neue Erfahrung! Die Rezeptionistin sagte das Schwimmbad wär auf dann war das Schwimmbad zu dann sagte die Rezeptionistin die Handtücher fürs Schwimmbad bekämen beim Zimmermädchen das Zimmermädchen sagt, man bekäme sie in im Wellness im Wellness sagte man uns, sie würden am Pool liegen. Am Pool lagen keine, und so finge die ganze Arie von vorne an. Aber über alles gesehen sind das Kleinigkeiten, über die man hinwegschauen kann uns hat es wieder mal gefallen und wir würden wahrscheinlich auch wiederkommen.
