Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Great location, very warm and kind staff, tasty food and great quality of both sauna and steam bath - we'll very likely be back!
Negative: There could be a bit more space in the relax area associated with the SPA - I'm sure this is less of an issue in summer when it's easier to chill beside the pool, but in winter it can get a bit crammed.

Thomas, United Kingdom Jan 4, 2026 08:00:00 AM
Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Nice room, great bar, lovely spa, nice touches of 4pm champagne and 9pm nightcap. Great breakfast, good coffee, juice. Lovely helpful staff. Good food in restaurant and great location for walks and exploring the village (offering other good food/drink options).
Negative: Restaurant is good but feels a bit “hotel-restaurant”. Maybe needs some design change. We were asked (politely) by reception to turn TV down at 11pm. It wasn’t that loud, so not the best sound insulation…..but we didn’t hear anything 😂
Summary: Fantastic break in a nice level of luxury, without being OTT pretentious
