We enjoyed the stay very much! Everything was just beautiful, the room, the Terrasse, the surroundings. Would return! Restaurant options and supermarkets plenty. The breakfast was lovely.

I was on business. Rooms are modest but the staff is great, especially Conrad. I would have liked a small refrigerator in the room and since I was their working, breakfast that started earlier than 7am, which was often delayed past 7 even for coffee.
