    Cozy and spacious getaway

    The room was super comfy with a huge bed and good vibes. Loved having breakfast in the bright conservatory—everything was fresh and tasty. The only thing was the size of the dinner menu, a bit limited. Would’ve liked more options for dining.

    exceptional dining
    soundproofing issues
    limited menu variety

    Beautiful setting with charming staff

    I recently enjoyed a stay that featured stunning grounds right by the river, perfect for serene walks. My room was a comfortable Standard King Room, offering a delightful view and spacious comfort. The dining options were exceptional, as the restaurant served quality meals, particularly the breakfast which included fresh pastries and a variety of options. the room could have benefited from better soundproofing to enhance comfort during the night.

    Charming stay with attentive service

    Our short escape featured beautifully prepared meals, especially the lamb rump and delightful breakfast with unique sausages. The staff, particularly Marie, ensured our comfort by swiftly addressing noisy neighbors. Book a room overlooking the gardens for added tranquility.

    delightful room
    beautiful grounds
    helpful upgrades
    restaurant issues
    parking fee
    mosquito problem

    I spent two nights in the Standard Queen Room. The room had a lovely view of the river, which was a nice touch. The bed felt great, and the linen was clean. Staff members, especially the reception team, were really friendly and offered a complimentary upgrade to make our stay even better. The buffet breakfast was decent, though it could have had a bit more variety. The garden area was beautiful and perfect for relaxing. the restaurant service during dinner wasn’t great. It felt rushed and chaotic, with numerous delays. The bar area was sometimes left messy, which didn’t feel welcoming. the parking fee felt unnecessary, especially since it adds up quickly. The mosquitoes outside made it hard to enjoy the terrace at times. a pleasant stay but there are clear areas to improve, particularly in dining and cleanliness.
