The property itself is beautiful, we went for a hike along the trail and was lovely. Amenities are great, a small but very useful gym and of course many pools on sites. All of the restaurants on site are great. The Michelins restó is a great experience. I booked a lymphatic massage and facial and that was not a good experience felt very unprofessional and highly overpriced in terms of the experience received.

Quiet, comfortable river front hotel

Beautiful hotel in gorgeous location overlooking the river. It was very quiet and peaceful. The service at the restaurant and bar could be improved. The front desk is very friendly and helpful. I would go again, but would eat dinner outside the hotel. Breakfast was amazing!
