Fair stay at the hotel.
helpful staff live music room view slow service dated decor understaffed bar
The hotel staff were helpful with our luggage. Live music in the lobby added a nice touch. I enjoyed the view from the room I had.
The bar seemed understaffed! Service was slower than I expected for a luxury hotel. We had to wait longer for drink refills and initial service. The room decor felt somewhat dated. I would have preferred a more modern aesthetic.

The hotel and grounds are fine with very nice facilities. i took advantage of walking around the hotel. It was great. the falconry experience is a must. The couple that runs it has decades of experience and is wonderful. i highly recommend that.
there was no iron in the room. there was also no fridge. it would have been useful for keeping drinks cold.
