This was the most luxurious place I’ve ever stayed. The room was immense with everything including free wine and minibar. The staff was super helpful. The thermal pool is a must and was so relaxing. The food at restaurant and the included breakfast were over the top wonderful. And at check-in we were fretted with champagne. Perfect respite on a busy itinerary.

Our visit to this old Monastery was fabulous such a Jewel. Stunning old building. Spa was excellent & lovely outdoor space. Ate In restaurant & food was excellent. On downside the sound proofing not excellent as lying in bed we could hear too clearly other people’s conversations & kids crying : sound seemed to echo around a lot.

We had a wonderful experience staying at this property. Service was immaculate, from the reception, to the hotel porters everyone greeted us with a smile, they were all very attentive. The hotel is probably one of the best we ever stayed in. The room was very spacious, modern and clean. Comfy bed. The spa pool was very relaxing. I specially enjoyed the heated outside pool We also had something to eat at the gastro bar. Cocktails were top notch and food was tasty. I would go back. Highly recommended
