Nice staff, clean room, excellent food at the hotel restaurant, excellent environment and staying in this castle full of history rendering our stay unforgettable.
A real gem. Though the last renovation was made many years ago, the facilities are not modern, the beauty, the atmosphere and the staff are exceptional.
Many thanks to Jovana and Jan hosting us and making us feel like home . It was a pleasure spending the weekend over there , walking around , dining in th castle and enjoying the surroundings. This is not the high season so you make want to book some other month if you wish a more
Vivid experience. By far, the very best steak Tatar I have ever tried in my entire life! Should visit for sure!
Staying in a castle is a bucket list item. The staff went out of their way to make certain everything was perfect. We had an event in one of the meeting rooms where 20 relatives got together and talked of "family". The charcuterie and fruit trays were superb. Everyone had an enjoyable get together. I deeply thank each and every member of the staff.
Sehr empfehlenswert, wenn man sich 1-2 romantische Tage in einem richtigen alten Schloss und auf höchstem Niveau gönnen will. Alles top. Der Schwimmbad- und Saunakomplex sind im ca. 200m entfernten Sporthotel untergebracht. Auch dort ist alles prima (kleiner Wehmutstropfen: das Schwimmbad war wegen Unterhaltsarbeiten geschlossen)
Todellinen satulinna, joka oli kunnostettu hienosti ja miljöö vetää vertoja mille tahansa huippuhotellille. Ruoka oli Michelin mainintojen mukaista ja palvelu aivan huippua.
Amazing, romantic one night stay! The double room had a lovely view of the river and was spacious. The bed was fabulously comfortable, and the pillows of good quality. There were oodles of Salvatore Ferragamo amenities too. We did not eat dinner but breakfast was if an extremely high standard. There was also a welcome gift in the room of a platter of dried fruit and hazelnuts.
O castelo (cuja história remonta ao sec XIII) é uma beleza. Fica numa ilha fluvial com jardins muito bem cuidados. O hotel, bastante confortável, foi decorado de forma moderna, com elementos que lembram a atmosfera medieval. A equipe é super atenciosa e fez de nossa estadia a melhor da viagem.
Beautiful serene setting, elegantly furnished and superb staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and excellent tasting menu dinner in the courtyard. The welcome in the wine tower was a nice surprise. Very deserving of its 5 star rating!
the air con was not working for 2 days
there were only 3 people in the entire hotel doing everything from check in to serving to carrying luggage
not relais chateux level at all!!!
no turn down service
Hotel is charming.. almost magical. Staff are delightful. Thermostats in the room.. quite the opposite. Instead of letting you type in a set temperature, they only let you do a relative "more or less". I had mine at the coolest setting, and it still kept heating up my room like an oven. Fortunately by 4am I found just the right balance of windows to keep open (in late November!).
Finally, the Bulgari bathroom amenities are luxurious, except that bath gel and shampoo are apparently the same thing- gross!
Wanted to spend the last night of our Slovenia trip in a bit different hotel. This castle is nice, quiet and peaceful. Restaurant is very good. Nature and the river surrounding the castle were really nice and offered a chance for a nice walk. Service is outstanding. Not for those seeking city life but a peaceful getaway.
