The hotel had some positives like complimentary red wine and chocolates, a enjoyable vitality pool area, and friendly staff, but the room wasn't as nice as expected for the price paid. The disappointment came from the limited menu in the main restaurant, which turned out to be the same as the bar food menu. Nevertheless, the breakfast was excellent, with a great variety despite the busy morning.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The free red wine and chocolates in the room were a lovely touch, and the vitality pool area was so relaxing. The lively staff made the bar experience enjoyable. However, we were a bit disappointed with the limited menu in the main restaurant, which was the same as the bar menu. Breakfast, though, was excellent with great choices despite it being busy. We will definitely return for another visit!
