the hotel welcomed us with notably spacious rooms. attentive staff provided assistance around the clock. i found it particularly convenient that they upgraded our room to a very large and comfortable garden suite (it was well furnished!). breakfast was a treat and offered a large menu to order from.

the radio was on upon arrival playing classic fm , made it hard to notice the road noise.

Wonderful Hotel Experience

helpful staff beautiful garden

The staff showed me around upon my arrival. That was appreciated. I could use the spa facilities prior to my check in time, very convenient. I also found the gardens beautiful and peaceful. I thought my spacious room was well decorated and very comfortable.

The lack of a fridge in my suite was an inconvenience. I had hoped to store some leftover cakes. I saw a note cute a previous guest along with a decanter containing leftover wine. I found this a bit unappealing

Rooms

My room included a very spacious area with complimentary tea and coffee. A coffee machine was included in the room, and the bathroom provided two showerheads alongside a large bathtub. Everything was clean. The artwork throughout the chateau was interesting.

Location

The hotel is located a short drive from the city center. It took about five minutes. I walked to town in about 25 minutes, which I thought was manageable. The hotel's proximity to Royal Victoria Gardens is also a definite advantage.
