Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were superb, with a great rainfall shower making each day a joy. While the air conditioning struggled a bit in the heat, the spacious and beautifully decorated room made up for it. The service was top-notch, with the staff being so attentive and friendly. The location on top of a hill offering magnificent views of the countryside was the highlight. Dining was satisfactory with a good choice of options, though a bit slow at times. Overall, a great value for the money.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were very comfortable for my family of four, offering a perfect blend of modern finishes with historic stone floors, ceilings, and walls. They were nice and practical, with a split level design and a lovely balcony, although slightly on the cramped side.
The hotel offers nice rooms with beautiful bathrooms that are comfortable and spacious, although slightly smaller than expected. The service was outstanding, making the stay pleasant, but I encountered some issues with unhelpful staff. The location is truly special, set within ancient buildings in a charming village. Dining was satisfactory but had some slow service and high prices. The facilities were decent overall.
