Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Some rooms may feel dated — While the public areas are ornate, certain rooms could benefit from updating, as one guest found the 'vibe' quiet but not exceptional.
- Breakfast not always included — Guests often mention breakfast positively, but it may not be part of the room rate depending on the booking.
- No on-site spa or pool — For a 5-star property, it lacks a spa and pool, focusing instead on massage services and a sun terrace.
