The hotel offers a mix of old-styled rooms that are extremely comfortable and beautifully designed.

The hotel offers elegant rooms filled with mirrors that add a touch of luxury and beauty. The decor is modern and the cleanliness is impeccable. However, the bathroom and minibar felt a bit dated. The service was outstanding, with prompt and friendly staff available to assist with various amenities. The location at the lake was superb, capturing the grandeur of the good old times.
