Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers functional rooms that are fine, though they lack luxury. The bathroom was amazing, with a superb view overlooking the vineyards. The service was friendly but somewhat lacking genuineness. The location is delightful, especially for enjoying wine farms. The dining could use more variety, though the meals are delicious. The facilities are adequate for a pleasant stay.
The hotel offers spacious and tastefully furnished rooms with a lovely view of the cellar. The service is attentive and professional. The location is gorgeous, perfect for unwinding with a glass of wine. The dining experience was fantastic with a variety of delicious options. The facilities are top-notch, ensuring a pleasant stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The room was like stepping into a time capsule from 1990, but in a spacious and unique way. The huge bathroom upstairs with a shower big enough for 4 people was a cool find, and I adored the lovely views all around. However, the fact that the bathroom was only accessible via a spiral staircase was a bit inconvenient.
