The hotel offers large and spacious rooms allowing for a sense of privacy, yet doors tend to slam behind you. The service, from personalized greetings to room service, is impeccable. The location is beautiful although staying warm can come at an expense compared to nearby dining options. The dining experience, especially in the spa lounge, is a delight. The facilities are top-notch.

The hotel provides luxurious and comforting rooms, although they are somewhat run-of-the-mill with typical cooling issues. The service has been incredibly flexible and the staff are professional and kind. The location is amazing, taking you away from all worries, even though there are better-priced dining options nearby. The dining experience, particularly from room service, is enjoyable, and the hotel offers a large tasting menu. The facilities are quite nice, although they fall short of top-tier quality in some aspects.
