Very beautiful structure in a green and elegant context

in my opinion, there is a problem with management: for example, the reception consists of only two stations, one of which is often empty, so check-in is very slow, even if there are only a few guests. The staff is very polite, but poorly coordinated, especially in the restaurant. Very slow service, even from the order to the arrival of the dishes takes 40 minutes. Breakfast is buffet and a la carte which is a poor buffet for an expensive hotel like this one. The mattresses are a little worn. We asked for a late check out (a hotel with a lot of empty rooms) but were given a room until 2pm after much insistence. In a less stellar and expensive hotel, everything would be tolerable, but with Hemingway rates, more is expected.

A must-have for the breath of colonial Africa

There is really nothing I wouldn't like to point out other than the room service which is very mediocre and far from five star level. Something is missing in this hotel to be in the category where it is. It's not disappointing, but not what you'd expect either. Therefore, it seems that this hotel is "worth" the money. It's easy to talk about value for money here. This is a luxury hotel and you have to give luxury, I hope you understand me. If you remember what you paid, it's that it's not up to expectations and perhaps other alternatives should be analyzed.

Low stocks of bread; almost exclusively sweet particles; also on request. On the second day, however, there were "brown toasts". The departure policy is incomprehensible, 75% of the daily rate if extended until 18:00, if the house is almost empty.
