Lo que más nos ha gustado ha sido la decoración del hotel y lo bonito que es. La limpieza y la amabilidad del personal
From the room we were in, we could hear a lot of noise from the hotel courtyard, and at night it was 2/3 in the morning and there was a lot of commotion. Also in August, everything was closed in the area and there wasn't much to do.
Desde la habitación que estábamos de escuchaba muchísimo el patio del hotel y por la noche eran las 2/3 de la mañana y se escuchaba mucho jaleo. También en agosto estaba todo cerrado por la zona y no había mucho que hacer.

Es una gran oportunidad alojarse en un palacio con historia y que esté tan bien acondicionado y restaurado. El servicio muy agradable, especialmente en el restaurante. La comida de muy buena calidad y presentación ideal.
Maybe I would expand the variety of options for breakfast, with more European dishes.
Quizás ampliaría la variedad de opciones en el desayuno, con platos más europeos.

El lugar es bonito
The breakfasts lacking variety, the dining room staff as if you weren't there, the spa basic, almost small, very clean though, silence is not respected at certain times and not much else.
Los desayunos escasos de variedad el personal del comedor como si no estuvieras el spa básico casi pequeño muy limpio eso sí , no se respeta el silencio a ciertas horas y poco más

El SPA bien para pasar un rato y desconectar. Sencillo pero agradable. Habitaciones cómodas y amplias. La cena buena y camarer@s agradables.
Breakfast is fine, but a bit of a mess to know where things are. I would improve it by putting up some signs to know which is the coffee room and which is the toast room.
El desayuno está bien, pero un poco lío para saber dónde están las cosas. Lo mejoraría poniendo algún cartelito para saber cuál es la sala del café y la de tostar pan.
