“Art Deco experience”

Reviewed March 31, 2013

We stayed in room 34 which is at the rear of the main hotel building and set in lovely gardens. The room was large and very comfortable. We had dinner and breakfast in the Art Deco themed dining room. The 1930's atmosphere was enhanced by the piano played during dinner.

Dear HappyHolidaysSA Thank you for the very flattering review. I always enjoy spending time with guests, and doing so in one of our classical cars is extra special. We have 2 classical cars at the moment, and 1956 Cadillac, and a 1955 Mercury, and are looking at expanding the fleet. I agree that one night is not enough, and always... More

Reviewed March 12, 2013

The staff made it a memorable stay, very friendly and professional ! will definitely return and recommend the hotel to friends and family. We love the old world decor, I do, however, think you should upgrade your TV chanel selections in the rooms for the evenings.

We just installed full HD flat screens in every room, and will also start with our winter maintenance program soon.

“Tranquility”

Reviewed March 9, 2013

I felt if I had only stay in this hotel and not leave it at all, what I came for would have been totally met, peace and tranquility. Wonderful garden and little nooks and crannies to sit and gather yourself in. Beautiful room. Bathroom could have had more shelves for ladies to pack their "things".
