While the restored 19th-century architecture is noteworthy, some experiences seem inconsistent with a luxury stay.”

the breakfast had a wide choice. the spa facilities seemed of high quality. the location on the promenade adjacent to the sea, it was beautiful. i think, for a high quality hotel, the price was reasonable.

there were issues with our room. there were small black flies in the bathroom. staff knew of this issue, but they did not offer any compensation. the shower didn't have privacy from the bedroom.

mixed feelings about this hotel

small roomlimited breakfast

the room size was smaller than i expected, and the smart tv didn't fully work. the youtube and netflix features needed connecting to my phone's wifi, but my room didn't even have that option. it feels outdated to have a smart tv without complete functionality. the spa was small, just a heated pool, a turkish bath, and a sauna. breakfast didn't have a lot of variety.
