"All in all it was a wonderful weekend and i would definitely recommend the hotel to guests"

8.0

Breakfast was excellent and staff were very accommodating and friendly. The ambiance throughout the hotel was interesting and the pool deck overlooking Thesen Island was very peaceful.

The room was large, but felt like it had not been thought out as well as it could have. We didn't want to unpack into the cupboards for only 2 days, but then there was nowhere to put the suitcases. The lounge was also didn't lend itself to drinking a coffee on the couch in the morning or enjoying a glass of wine after dinner.
