Wonderful stay!

Stayed here with my wife for several nights in August. Check in was simple and fast. Very nice and helpful staff -- from beginning of stay, all the way through our time there. The room (we had a suite) was beautiful, and the view out of it was incredible. We enjoyed our stay here as much as we have in any 5 star place across Europe, and I will definitely come back here for another stay. Highly recommended!
