great selectionhigh-quality optionsbathroom designweartear
the breakfast offered a great selection and high-quality options, i found that to be a proper start to the day. the staff was genuinely helpful and accommodating, from check-in to checkout! i especially appreciated their assistance with securely storing some vintage wines i purchased.
The bathroom design was stylish, but the doors to the shower and bathroom area did not offer the privacy i desired. i also noticed that the hotel could improve its maintenance. Some finishes had wear and tear, which i wouldn't expect.

Charming and Attentive Hotel Stay

The staff was friendly and helpful (they really went the extra mile). I enjoyed a complimentary welcome drink upon arrival. The Hemingway suite was spacious, very comfortable and I enjoyed the great views across the river from the pool patio. The hotel restaurant offered a well-thought-out menu.
