    What a gorgeous property. The breakfast is absolutely world class. The staff were very professional - perhaps a bit cool, but that may be the style. The dining room is elegant.

    Breakfast was the most amazing experience ever. The best we have ever experienced. Our room was fine but our friends were assigned larger rooms which was a bit disappointing. Regardless a wonderful stay & Hotel Thons again an amazing surprise.

    Wonderful staff and love the overall feel of the hotel. Have really done a wonderful job organizing the hotel and making sure it is quiet in the rooms. I love the old style look with modern amenities (such as elevators) for all the luggage...
