Uniquness of the property, the castle was a spectacular sight! What we did not like is the fact that they refused to give us the original room that we booked. Upon our arrival at the lobby the front desk, informed us that they had already upgraded our room. The front desk checked us in a room in the Gate house when we had actually paid extra for a delux room with a view in the main building. When we finally managed to drag all our luggage and find the room in the gate house after more than an hour the so called ugraded room was one level from the ground level with no view. When we called room service to ask about the room they kept insisting that this is a better room for us. Upon insisting that we wanted the room that we booked we were told that the room is no longer available. With no proper phone connection to the main lobby and no assistance we had to lug all our luggage with a 3 year old we walked all the way back to the main lobby only to be told there is no vacancy. After a lot of haggling the manager finally managed to give us a room with a view in the main building. It was a full 3 hours after we walked into the lobby. This is not an acceptable service and unpleasant treatment from such a reputable hotel. It almost ruined our vacation. Will not be going back any time soon after what we experienced. And worse there was no apology or any effort to right the wrong. All we wanted was to check in to the room we had booked.

The stay was wonderful, the staff amazing, the food and drinks were delicious. Our room was not in the main hotel as we had booked. Which was a disappointment, we had an older room, overlooking the valley. The room was ok, showing wear and tear, the carpet was worn in places, there was some water damage in the washroom. However, the castle in the mountains is a magical place to stay. The over all experience was amazing and we will come back to the hotel for future stays. Hoping this time we get the accommodations we want.
