Dan, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Beautiful setting, lovely rooms. Staff are a bit clueless and indifferent- need way more training on customer service. We had dinner and breakfast and both were good.
Claire, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a gift to find a hotel with a generator during the major power outage. We enjoyed the breakfast selection! The views are spectacular, a must see!
Kimberley, 2-night trip

Great location and great hotel.
1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

After 24 hours of travel, the view to which we awakened did not disappoint in the slightest! Exquisite breakfast, easy, quick, delicious room service and a midnight swim in the indoor pool - all point to a return trip very very very soon!
Linda, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

This hotel needs a major refresh & a new interior designer. Too stark and dated with the exception of the light fixtures, which were very cool! The bed & pillows are terrible! Like sinking into a hole. Massages were equally below standard! The whole place feels like an episode from Severance. However, the breakfast buffet and the view were excellent!
Dawn, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Fabulous place - best infinity pool ever
Damian, 3-night trip

Pam, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Perfect location

We had a lovely stay in the hotel, lovely breakfast and food, but the star of the show is the location just perfect. We would definitely go back.
Gearoid, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Average hotel, above average pool

Really lovely infinity pool and view which is the most special part of the hotel. Mediocre food, okay ambiance that could be improved. Location is okay but far from all the wineries. Good price for a suite.
Amber, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Booked a stay for me and my wife as a routine escape and i didn't regret it. The most exquisite views and surroundings. The Staff were impecable. The only finger pointing I will do is some lack of maintenace. From almost broken doorknobs, elevator panels almost coming off, fissures on the walls and a hole outside on the floor at the outdoor pool leaves a sour taste to it, as it is a 5 star hotel. Nonetheless a great experience. Just be advised, the means of transport in the area are really scarse, and if you wish to have a nearby local dining experience you will be disappointed, as there are no nearby restaurants or even shops/supermarkets. Either you dine at the restaurant hotel, which you need previous reservation (1 Day prior) or you ask for room service, which is equally good. The bar offers lights meals as well. Also don't forget any type of necessaire, no shops or supermarkets in the area.

Great stay!

A lovely location and stay. Teresa at Reception was WONDERFUL! It is a bit of a twisty drive. Great parking. The breakfast goes far and beyond all others! Great balcony views. Room service was quick. All around wonderful!
2-night trip

8/10 Good

This hotel sits on the river, and every room has a perfect river view. The dinner menu and service was really good especially since there are limited food options in the area. Hotel offers a beautiful infinity pool that overlooks the river, but a bit too cold for me. I would recommend this hotel.
Bobby, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The view was gorgeous. Not much in the vicinity as far as restaurants and things to do. It takes like 25 minutes to get to a major road. Dinner was okay, the limited menu did not change in 3 nights. Surprisingly moderately priced given not much alternative and the high level of service.
Michael, 3-night trip
