Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a clean and comfortable stay nestled in a tranquil forest setting, which is great for relaxation. The furnishings and amenities provide good value for the money. However, being away from the city center might not be ideal for everyone, and the breakfast options could be more varied.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, set in a serene wooded area that offered a beautiful view of the lake. The rooms were spacious and modern, and the friendly staff made me feel right at home. However, while the breakfast was decent, it could use a bit more variety. Overall, the hotel provides good value for money, but it's a little away from the hustle and bustle of the city center.
The hotel is nestled in a serene small forest, providing a beautiful and peaceful setting, yet it’s conveniently close to the city. My room was clean and well-designed, although it could have benefited from a better breakfast selection. Overall, it offers great value for money, but there are a few areas for improvement.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, nestled in a beautiful setting. The rooms offered a stunning view and were quite comfortable. The location was perfect, close to the city yet surrounded by nature. However, the dining options could be improved, and Wi-Fi wasn’t included, which was a bit of a letdown.
