Exquisite, first class boutique hotel, with wonderful facilities & exceptionally attentive staff.
Reception & concierge greeted us the moment we entered the hotel. Helpful personalised debrief on the local area, attractions and restaurants. Concierge very attentive - almost getting us a taxi before we knew we wanted one.
Room spotlessly clean, turn down service. The discreet coloured tassels that you use for ‘do not disturb’ are a sign that this hotel is for the discerning visitor.
Breakfast buffet had a good choice, fruit was so tasty. Our waiter initially seemed aloof, but by the 3rd morning I looked forward to watching his super efficient speed & quirky service.
My favourite place was the 7th floor terrace bar, beautiful, quiet haven to recuperate with a Cava after a tiring day walking around the art galleries. To my shame, I didn’t ask his name, our barman was a true credit to the hotel. On our second evening there, he recognised us & welcomed us like long last friends, stopped to chat about where we’d been. He knew what we’d drank the previous evening, a rare quality.
I adored all the staff, such a credit to their profession. I felt very sad to leave. I hope other Relais hotels in Europe are as exceptional, as they are going to be my hotel of choice after this stay.
