Our room looked like it hadn't been used for a few months. There was cobwebs on the mirror lights and on the light above the bed. Not a nice thing especially for my wife. Hotel otherwise is good, spa facilities are in the Ensana Thermal hotel and are good, too. The breakfast we as very very basic for us. As Vegetarian there was just bread, rolls,and cereals. No toasters, no beans, no roasted tomatoes, waffles etc that you find in a normal breakfast. The rooms are not soundproof at all. You can hear the cleaners outside. You can hear next door closing a cupboard door or sneezing etc, not quiet rooms at all. Disappointed with the breakfast and the webs in the room, and lack of soundproofing in the rooms.

Not Family-Friendly – Better for Adults with Pets

We stayed at this hotel recently, and overall, it left us with mixed feelings. The building itself is old-stylish, which can feel charming, and in general, it is kept clean. The staff is kind and welcoming, but everything moves very slowly. Communication can also be a challenge, as English is not spoken very well. Food is definitely not a strong point of the hotel. It doesn’t always feel fresh, and sometimes the vegetables seemed old—borderline spoiled. This part was quite disappointing. As for families, I would not recommend this place at all. Although the hotel advertises swimming pools, children are not allowed to play in them. They forbid bringing pool toys or even a ball, which makes the pool area very restrictive. Most of the other facilities are clearly aimed at adults, so the hotel should really market itself as an adults-only destination rather than as family-friendly. Another thing to note is that many guests come with their dogs. If you are allergic to dogs or not comfortable around animals, this will be an issue. To summarize: this is a quiet hotel for adults who want a slow-paced, calm stay, possibly with pets. But if you are a family with children, especially if you’re looking for pools and activities for kids, this is not the place for you.

Everything except only the parking wasn't excellent. The marked spaces are way to narrow for the rather wide (SUV) cars. Finally, I learned about the garage with wide slots, for extra money, but worth the peace of mind. Expedia made a horrible mistake, when confirmed my reservation. Added beside my name, whole Credit card number, the security code too. I had to get a new card number.

Big spacious room for family with young kids

The hotel location is excellent at Margaret island near the Japanese garden, very nice and relaxing to be in such place. The hotel feels very authentic. The staff were very nice to prepare us breakfast to -go on our last day because our flight was too early. The breakfast variety was also good. One point for improvement, consider installing window grille. Because our visit was during April not sure if there is a good air condition and air circulation.
