Pros: Everything about this experience was magnificent! We will definitely return!

Cons: Only one thing that was annoying. The outdoor fire pits should be only for hotel guests. When we went out to have a cocktail and enjoy the bagpiper, we could not get a seat by the fire. Only to find out that a party of six who all had chairs were not even hotel guests.

Pros: Physical beauty of the location

Cons: The hotel was full capacity. Consequently, the facilitates were strained. Preferences didn't 'appear to be given to hotel guests. Locals & guests from surrounding hotels crowded out existing hotel guests. This was obvious at eating times.

Pros:

Cons: When i asked for a wine list from one of the staff outside, he gave me the cocktail list that included the house wines served by the glass and walked away. What he didnt realise, I was asking for a REAL wine list. Good thing the other staff noticed i was disappointed and attended to me and my boyfriend. The indifferent staff was embarassed when he heard that we asked for the 500usd bottle and gave the nicer staff a 100usd gratuity. #neverjudge
