    The interior design of the hotel is 5* luxury, the grounds are beautiful. It could be run so much better. So many nicely decorated areas in the hotel, could stay there all day long if it didn't seem so unattended in the F&B department.

    Breakfast very good, all meals are set menus would prefer to have a choice as lunches and dinners are set and you get what you get and are quite pricey considering you can’t choose and mains portion size is tiny.
