Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were stylish with a gurgling water feature, offering good facilities, but the extra bed seemed a bit unnecessary. The service was rather hit or miss, with some staff being very attentive and hospitable, while others showed a lack of interest and terrible attitude. The location, nestled perfectly in the mountains, offered beautiful views but was somewhat secluded. The dining experience out on the rooftop was enjoyable, but the stewed partridge was not to my taste. The facilities were top-notch overall.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with modern amenities and a stylish bathroom in the room. The service was excellent with great hospitality, making my experience enjoyable. The location, although not in the city center, offered a peaceful setting overlooking the city. The dining experience on the roof was delightful, and the facilities provided added convenience to my stay.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with its stylish rooms and great service. The location offered stunning views, but the dining experience fell short with limited options. The facilities were commendable, making it a comfortable choice overall.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with a perfect location nestled in the mountains overlooking the city. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the service was top-notch with great hospitality. The dining experience on the rooftop was exquisite, serving delicious handmade pasta. The facilities were modern and convenient. The only downside was the challenging steep climb to reach the hotel on the hills.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel! The location is amazing, nestled perfectly in the mountains, offering a secluded retreat that still provides easy access to the main city center. The rooms were exceptional, especially with the gurgling water passing over the balcony, giving a soothing ambiance. The service was top-notch, delivered with great hospitality that made my stay truly memorable. The dining experience out on the rooftop was delightful, offering stunning views. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, adding to the overall comfort of my stay.
