Delicious Breakfast Options

The custom omelette station at breakfast was a good surprise. I had a perfectly cooked omelette made to my taste each morning, which truly enhanced my dining experience during my stay.

My stay at this resort spa was rejuvenating. The gardens felt like a slice of paradise and the peaceful ambiance helped me unwind. Breakfast was superb with a great variety, especially the made-to-order Spanish Omelettes. On the downside, there were a few hiccups with the coffee machines, and while the location was nice, it required a bit of a walk to reach the main areas, but it was worth it for the tranquility.

I had a fantastic time at this resort hotel! The serene riverside setting and beautiful gardens make it a perfect getaway. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which added to the overall experience. However, I felt that some areas could use a little update, and there's a quirky toilet paper rule that might catch some off guard. Overall, I found it to be great value for the money spent.

This hotel is a hidden gem with beautiful pools and lovely staff that truly make you feel welcome. The riverside location is absolutely stunning, creating a peaceful atmosphere. Our suite was spacious, but the gloomy sitting area was a downside. Also, the management could improve on customer service, which detracted from an otherwise lovely stay.
