It is not just a hotel/spa, it is an amazing experience. It is a real 5 star hotel where you are treated amazingly from the moment you arrive. Modern designed mixed with historical heritage helps you to relax and enjoy your holidays. You will have everything you need: from L’Occitane cosmetics to a yoga mat. Breakfast had a plenty of options to choose from, the food was of a high quality. SPA zone offers a very nice sauna, several water zones an places to relax.

A very nice property. Seems that reception is a bit under-staffed. Biggest issues is transportation. Can’t get a taxi when needed. Hotel has no other options. For such a nice place - having a house car or reliable transportation service is a must. Would do again, but may need to make sure that we have a rental car.
