However, I did notice that some areas could benefit from a bit more attention, and the dining options had some quirky combinations that might not appeal to everyone. Overall, it was wonderful but with room for improvement.

Staying at this hotel was a unique experience, thanks to the stunning castle architecture and the friendly staff who truly made us feel welcome.

Staying at this castle was such a delightful experience with its rich history and unique architecture. The service was attentive, making my stay even more pleasant. However, some aspects like the dining experience could be improved, specifically with timing. The room I stayed in was lovely but had a frustratingly small shower cubicle, which was a letdown amidst the luxurious setting.
