Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located across the road from the lake where many people enjoy water activities and is within walking distance of the city center. The rooms offer a beautiful view from the first level, but having a balcony would enhance the experience. The staff provided great service, particularly when assisting with an unexpected situation. The dining options included toast which could be improved for better value. The facilities are satisfactory, though some could benefit from renovation.
The hotel is located across the road from the lake where many people were enjoying various water activities. The rooms offer lovely views and are in outstanding condition. The service, especially from the Restaurant Manager, was exceptional, going above and beyond to assist with unexpected incidents. The dining options are traditional but could use some improvement in value. Despite the good location, the hotel is not right at the lake. Overall, a convenient choice with friendly staff and wonderful views.
The hotel offers outstanding views and is in great condition. The rooms are comfortable and come with a private balcony, but the pricing could be more competitive. The service was attentive and caring, although some staff may benefit from additional training. The location is superb, with easy access to the main shopping areas and the lakefront. The dining experience is average but included nibbles. Overall, a good value for a pleasant stay.
