One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at anywhere in the world. They picked us up at the train station and shuttle this over. Everything was ready. Our room was ready early. They also welcomed us with a nice bottle of champagne and some other little goodies. the restaurant was great. The breakfast was great. The bar area was great especially the pool and sauna were amazing. They even have a kids area where kids can swim and especially for us. They had a playroom for cute little kids which was in the basement, which was totally cool huge shout out to front desk Yanis helping us through throughout the entire trip. He definitely made the stay special kudos to him and everyone on staff.
