Spacious, beautifully furnished rooms (garden view) and a buffet breakfast with plenty of choices made our stay very enjoyable. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, and the property itself is well maintained and very inviting. The location is excellent, adding even more convenience to the experience. This was our second stay and we would gladly return again.

Beautiful castle and property. The staff was always making sure we were being taking care of even if we were leaving somewhere they would ask if it was a good experience or if we need any recommendations. Have in mind, if you are staying in the main building and you have lots of luggage, there’s no elevator to bring them up, so get ready to have a last minute stairmaster workout.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The on-site restaurant was wonderful! All staff members we met provided excellent quality service! Our room was spacious and modern and it was very quiet for a good night's sleep. Only negative point was that our (king-sized) mattress seemed to be due for replacing as some springs were "poking" us. But thankfully, after walking 14km that day, I had no trouble sleeping, lol. Loved the historic character/charm. We would definitely recommend this hotel!

I've never stayed in anything quite like this. It's truly a castle! Beautiful rooms with high ceilings, gilded moldings, tile murals, lovely linens, art. Gated entry and parking on site. Shout out to Joanna and Pedro, receptionists who lugged bags and passed along birthday notification to the breakfast staff, who serenaded my daughter on her birthday that morning.
