The hotel overall has many qualities worthy of its 5-star rating - attentive staff (apart from one less pleasant encounter at reception), delicious cocktails, and a super fresh breakfast with wonderful homemade jam. However, a couple of things kept our experience from being truly five stars.
When we arrived, we noticed several spider webs in the room. One might be understandable, but finding multiple gave the impression that cleaning wasn't quite up to 5-star standards. In addition, when I asked about parking, the receptionist first told me there was none available at all. Only when I pointed out that 5-star hotels generally have parking did she change her story, saying there were limited spaces that must be booked in advance. The interaction felt dismissive, as if she just wanted to move us along, which was disappointing compared to the warmth of the rest of the staff
That being said, the positives are undeniable - the atmosphere, the quality of the food and drinks, and the professionalism of most of the team made our stay enjoyable. With just a bit more attention to consistency in service and room upkeep, this hotel would easily deserve the full five stars.
