Reviews and Ratings
This resort has a beautiful setting with stunning views of the hills and a spacious garden, perfect for enjoying morning tea. However, the service could use some improvements, especially at the reception, and the rooms were older than expected, which was a letdown. While the food was tasty, it sometimes fell short in variety and quality. Overall, it’s a peaceful spot, but not without its flaws.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The renovation work left me disappointed, with several amenities unavailable, including a closed pool and playroom. On the plus side, the staff were helpful, and I appreciated the spacious rooms and excellent dining options. However, I would advise waiting until the renovations are complete before booking.
I stayed in an executive suite with a pool view, and the room was quite nice with a stunning hill view and balcony. While the hotel is conveniently located near the market but still quiet, I faced several issues during my stay. The dining experience was hit-or-miss; breakfast was varied and delicious, but lunch and dinner left much to be desired. Overall, the hotel has great potential but needs significant improvements management-wise and facility-wise.
The hotel is conveniently located near the market, making it easy to explore the area. I enjoyed a fantastic view from my room, but the staff's service left much to be desired. While the hotel has good amenities like a pool and breakfast options, the staff's attitude and some cleanliness issues detracted from my overall experience.
The hotel is okay overall, but I believe there are better options for the price. The food was excellent, especially the buffet breakfast, and the location is superb, with easy access to the market. However, the service needs improvement, and the rooms could use some updates and better soundproofing. Perhaps the ongoing renovations are contributing to the disturbances.
