I found the hotel to be a mixed experience overall. The rooms were comfortable with armchairs, but the carpet was quite smelly. The staff were attentive and helpful, offering excellent service, but unfortunately, there was an issue with the customer service being a bit unfriendly and full of attitude. The location was convenient, with beautiful gardens close by, yet it was on a slight hill, which could be challenging for some. The dining experience for vegetarians like me was impressive, and I enjoyed gourmet products. The facilities were decent, although there were a few areas that could use improvement.

The hotel is nestled in beautiful gardens with a slight hillside view. Although the rooms had a few armchairs, the carpet had a strong smell. The shower experience was commendable, but the decor could use some improvements. The service staff were always ready to provide assistance and offer top-notch service, making the stay pleasant. Unfortunately, there was a lacking customer service approach with an attitude issue. The location, especially facing Lake View Terrace in the garden, was charming, perfect for relaxation. However, certain service areas could do better Nearby the Airport. The dining options catered well to vegetarians, and the sandwiches were a hit. The facilities were adequate but could be upgraded for a better experience.
