Returning a week later
Great stay, very comfy room with a lovely view of the castle and park. Fast check in and very friendly staff. Blanka on reception was very helpful.
Only minor downside were the drawers in the room were broken.
Kettle, hairdryer and iron with ironing board in the room.

They catered exceptionally well for my GF Coeliac diet.
Room very clean and comfortable.
