Staying at the hotel was like stepping into a fairytale castle with beautiful rooms in the old tower and smaller round towers. The rooms were stunning with great beds, lovely furniture, and amazing bathrooms featuring huge bathtubs. However, the absence of even a tissue box in one of the smaller towers was a slight inconvenience.
