Rooms were clean and surprisingly very spacious. Bed was absolutely comfortable. Option to have breakfast in the room was a bonus. Only drawback was staff was not as attentive. Not very welcoming at check-in, service was slow at dinner, overall staff did not come across as friendly. We had to ask for assistance/attention at check in, despite staff seeing us being dropped off with luggage or to be served at dinner and by the pool, which we found to be a bit off putting

The hotel is beautiful and has a magnificent garden with a lake, pool, restaurants, bakery, spa, and fine delicacies. The staff is very friendly. Service is rather tedious. There is no concept, which results in long wait times. Those who dislike small children should not come here. It is noisy and shrill due to families with children. It is unfortunate that the staff does not ensure quiet.
