We had a mix of experiences during our stay. The location by the canal is pretty, and the amenities like the spa were enjoyable. However, our room was quite cramped for three, especially with the extra bed, and the dining experience was not up to par with what we expected from a four-star establishment. Overall, it's a lovely place, but it needs some improvements.

I had high hopes for this resort spa based on the gorgeous surroundings and its claim of luxury, but I was left feeling disappointed. While the staff was incredibly friendly and the spa facilities were relaxing, I found the overall maintenance and cleanliness of the hotel to be lacking. The dining experience was good, but could benefit from improved service efficiency. The location by the canal is beautiful, but the room accommodations fell short of what I expected from a resort spa.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the spa facilities were absolutely amazing and truly luxurious, the dining experience left much to be desired due to staff indifference. The room was nicely decorated and clean, but the bathroom was a bit cramped. Overall, I enjoyed my stay but felt that the dining service and some room aspects need improvement.

The hotel has a charming ambiance and offers an extensive range of spa facilities that are perfect for relaxation. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, there were definitely some issues with room cleanliness and maintenance that impacted my stay. Overall, it's a decent getaway, but the price feels a bit steep for what you get in terms of room quality and dining experience.

The hotel is set in beautiful grounds, and I really enjoyed the spa facilities, which were luxurious and well-kept. While the room was clean and comfortable, it was quite cold upon arrival, and I could hear noise from other guests, which was a bit distracting. Dining experiences varied; the Asian restaurant was excellent, but there were mixed feelings about the service and quality of other meals. Overall, it's a lovely place but could use some improvements in room soundproofing.
