The hotel is set in a gorgeous mountain valley and the natural hot springs pool was fantastic. The rooms are beautiful and spacious, perfect for a rustic retreat. However, the dining experience is a big drawback with limited options and poor service. Additionally, there were issues with the amenities and overall service that left much to be desired. It seems the hotel needs some adjustments to match its luxurious aspirations.

I had a wonderful day visit at the resort, enjoying beautiful grounds and thermal pools. The place was less crowded and had a lovely atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. However, finding the hotel was challenging due to the lack of signs, and I wouldn't recommend it for families as it felt more suited for older guests. The limited dining options also left something to be desired.

The setting of the hotel was absolutely stunning with beautiful gardens and well-maintained hot springs pools. My room was spacious and comfortable, though the bathroom could definitely use some updates. Unfortunately, the breakfast options left a lot to be desired, and the dining experience overall was not great. While I enjoyed the lovely grounds, the food really brought down my overall impression of the stay.
