Luxury grand property, the grounds were superb. The area around the hotel had lovely restaurants which we tried. The bus stop and train station is literally 5 mins walk away. Our room was perfect, big plus was the penhaligon bath set provided. The spa area with swimming pool was used by us everyday after our extensions! All in all a very relaxing, much needed stay.

This place is just amazing. The reality is even better than the pictures, it has to be seen to be believed. I've never stayed anywhere like this before. Great staff, great food, the local area has some nice restaurants, not too hard to get to Cologne (it's at the end of tram line 1). The wifi was a bit inconsistent but that's fairly common. I'm definitely going back.
