El trato con el personal y en general todos los detalles que tiene el hotel
Por la noche hemos pasado calor porque el edredón de la cama es para ambientes más frios y la habitación por la noche no baja de 21,5ª aunque esté sin el el aire puesto y con la ventana abierta. En el desayuno por las mañanas sería bueno que tuviera piña natural

El hotel muy tranquilo y limpito, el spa muy pequeño con 3 chorros, 2 camas y una sauna, la comida un poco escasa para el precio qué tiene, el personal maravilloso adecuado a su calidad. Lo bueno supera a lo menos bueno. Volveré
El spa necesita unos retoques, estaba el suelo lleno de arenilla..., la comida más cantidad para el precio qué se paga

PERSONAL, SERVICIO E INSTALACIÓNES. PROFESIONALIDAD. MUY RECOMENDABLE. REPETIREMOS.
En dos momentos puntuales. Ruido de carritos con traqueteo de menaje. Se introdujo con el AC calefacción encendida, olor a humo de tabaco en la habitación 8, procedente de otra habitación o del exterior. Nada grave.

Edificio singular, muy bien situado. Habitaciones amplias, limpias.
Comedor singular, estimo que serían las antiguas caballerizas del palacio por la ubicación en el edificio y el acceso amplio desde la calle. Mantiene parte del techo con las estructuras y vigas de madera.
El mobiliario de las habitaciones se les nota ya un cierto deterioro y sobre todo y principal, el aislamiento acústico de las habitaciones.
Son puertas de madera para el acceso a la terraza/balcón y en mi caso daba al patio o a la terraza del comedor/cafetería, en donde están sentadas las personas en las mesas de la terraza y cualquier conversación parecía que estaban dentro de la habitación.

El hotel es precioso. Cuidado al detalle, respetando el estilo del palacio.
Ideal para desconectar unos días.
El agua de las piscinas del spa, tiene demasiado cloro y nos produjo irritación en la piel y en los ojos.

La comida del restaurante es fantástica y el agua del SPA estaba muy calentita. ¡Una maravilla!
The restaurant staff was lovely except for a blonde woman who was very rude at breakfast, and her facial expressions said it all... very unpleasant. The beds were also not what you would expect from a four-star hotel, but the room was beautiful.
El personal del restaurante encantador excepto una mujer rubia que había en el desayuno que te hablaba de muy malas formas y sus caras eran un poema…muy desagradable.
Las camas tampoco son lo esperado de un hotel de cuatro estrellas pero la habitación era preciosa.

Es un sitio tranquilo, con encanto. Para relajarse y desconectar
The breakfast buffet does not have hot dishes and for being a 4-star hotel, it is simple. But everything is very tasty and the lunch and dinner menu is also very good. The spa needs some maintenance, it is also simple but peaceful and charming.
El buffet libre del desayuno no tiene platos calientes y para ser un 4⭐ es sencillo. Pero todo muy rico y el menú del almuerzo y la cena muy bueno también. El spa necesita algún mantenimiento, también es sencillo pero tranquilo y con encanto

La habitación es amplia y acogedora. El SPA está bien, pero no es gran cosa.
The SPA time is limited, 1h. And the price for each session is too expensive in my opinion, plus the swim cap is mandatory, and they charge extra for it.
El tiempo de SPA es reducido, 1h. Y el precio por cada sesión es demasiado caro a mí parecer, a demás es obligatorio el gorro de baño, que lo cobran a parte.

El palacete es maravilloso los empleados super gentiles y profesionales .
It's a shame that the kitchen doesn't live up to this wonderful 4-star accommodation. They should improve the spa area if it's already small, and some sauna was not working, so I couldn't enjoy it as I expected.
Lástima que la cocina no esté a la altura de este maravilloso alojamiento de 4?estrellas . Deben mejorar la zona del spa si ya es pequeño y alguna sauna no funcionaba no se pudo disturar como esperaba
