Reviews and Ratings
Staying in this beautifully renovated medieval castle was a truly unique experience. The rooms offered a spacious and comfortable atmosphere, and I thoroughly enjoyed the diverse dining options available. The facilities surrounding the castle added to the charm, though I did notice a few areas that could be improved, particularly the Wi-Fi and parking situation.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel located in a charming village, ideal for nature walks with my dog. The deluxe room was modern and spacious, complete with a thoughtful dog kit. The food was delicious, with both breakfast and dinner exceeding my expectations. However, the location was a bit isolated, and I found the Wi-Fi to be quite weak, which was inconvenient.
The hotel is situated in a quaint village offering a peaceful retreat, especially for pet owners like us. Our deluxe room was modern and spacious, and we were pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful dog kit prepared for our furry friend. The dining experience was fantastic with delicious meals, although the lack of nearby restaurants means you'll likely eat on-site. The hotel also provided free entry to the nearby Aqua Terme Aqualux, which we enjoyed. However, the Wi-Fi could use some improvement and the distance of parking from the hotel was inconvenient.
I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, especially enjoying the spacious and modern deluxe room. The dog amenities were a nice touch, and the service was impressively warm and attentive. However, the remote location means dining options outside the hotel are scarce, which might be a downside for some. Still, the complimentary entry to the Aqua terme Aqualux was a fantastic perk.
Tucked away in a picturesque, renovated medieval castle, my stay was delightful, largely thanks to the stunning architecture and inviting atmosphere. The food was outstanding, and the service was quite attentive. However, I faced some challenges with weak Wi-Fi connections and a slightly inconvenient parking situation. Overall, it's a memorable experience, particularly for those who appreciate historical charm.
