Pros: Beautiful hotel with great views and quiet location. Great breakfast with a large selection and an attentive staff.

Cons: We first got a room with 2 levels with a very narrow spiral staircase up to the bathroom. I tried to change the room but the hotel was fully booked. We could later during our stay change to an other room.

A beautiful location and a memorable stay, thankyou.

Pros: A really beautiful place with spectacular views, a feeling of space and privacy, large rooms and outside terrace, and excellent food and wine. We loved watching the wildlife on the lake and would highly recommend.

Cons: These items may not be of importance to others, but there is an unusual bathroom arrangement whereby there is no door or screen between it and the main bedroom ( the toilet does have a door however.) This should, we felt, be made clear within the room description at the booking stage . Apparently not all rooms have this arrangement ( but we were not offered an alternative.) The twin beds are literally 2 single beds; for this price point perhaps something slightly larger would be appropriate, there is certainly plenty of space in the room. The bed was also rather firm. Also we were woken early (ie before 07:00) on 2 /3 mornings with noise outside the room. All the staff within the restaurants and bars were friendly and very helpful and went out of their way to help make our stay special. However we found that overall the reception staff , whilst polite, were much less forthcoming and not very proactive. Our (albeit minor ) issues were discussed with them and little was done to resolve. Also there was little help or suggestions with any other arrangements. Uber worked well however. We felt a concierge or more experienced staff member would perhaps be more appropriate.
