We were not happy with the first room allocated to us and upon complaint, the staff acted promptly and moved us and even assisted with our luggage to another room.

Everyone was friendly from the welcoming gentlemen to the waiters and waitresses. The breakfast was amazing. The shuttle was the best and the drivers.

The Hotel had a warm, cheerful, festive ambience, perfect for the Christmas season. The breakfast was great. I especially enjoyed the friendliness of the breakfast ladies at the "eggs" station. The location is also ideal, within walking distance...
