“After a recent renovation, the hotel strikes me as particularly well-suited to weddings, with unique packages and a dedicated planning team; the leisure club, complete with a heated indoor pool and tennis courts, also caught my attention. That said, I noted some reports of inconsistent internet access and the occasional maintenance issue. In my opinion, the location is convenient, and the gardens add a touch of charm, making it a solid choice for events.”
