Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers stunning views across the tree tops over their Sir Henry Cotton Championship course. The setup on arrival was a bit far from the elevator, and it seems like not much has been invested in upgrading the facilities, which is a shame considering its past glory.
The hotel offers a stunning location with comfortable accommodations and attentive staff, although the dining experience falls short in terms of value for money. The exterior areas are meticulously maintained, providing a pleasant atmosphere.
My stay at the hotel was lovely. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had a nice bathroom, despite being a bit noisy since my room was at the front of the hotel. The staff, especially the young team, was very kind. The food quality was superior as expected in a 5-star hotel, and the exterior areas were extremely well-maintained. Sharing the room with a neighbor separated by two doors was a unique experience, and the mountain view was a delightful bonus.
