Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is nestled in stunning gardens, offering a peaceful setting to unwind. The private balconies and kitchenettes in the rooms enhance the stay, but the obstructed views can be a drawback. The price matches the value received, making it a good choice for a relaxing retreat.
The hotel has a splendid location with beautiful gardens. The rooms offer a balcony for a lovely view. The service was top-notch and very accommodating, although the dining options were not impressive. Overall, a great value for money stay.
The hotel offers a serene setting surrounded by beautiful gardens, perfect for a relaxing stay. The rooms provide a private balcony and a kitchenette, although some lack a view. The service is attentive, with room service available, but at a moderate price. The location is picturesque with easy access to the town and beautiful cliff paths. Unfortunately, the dining options are limited in quality, especially for poultry dishes.
