Some renovations are needed
Overall, the property is nice and staff are very friendly making sure your stay is enjoyable and comfortable. It is a perfect venue for weddings or special occasions. The property is listed as a 5-star hotel. Our room, however, had the entire backwall with peeling paint in the bathroom which suggest previous water damage that has not been fixed. This is rather unacceptable for a hotel rated at 5-stars with a nightly rate of more than $400/night. Hence, our lower rating.

An amazing hotel. Great location. Superb staff and service. Excellent food. Room amenities great except bath towels too small, no bath salts or bubble bath yet a massive bath. Drain blocked in shower on first night. Moved to inferior room for one night. Shower fixed and we could move back to our luxurious room. Unfortunately at check out management decided not to refund me for part of cost for staying in an inferior room for one night to what was booked.

Lever inte upp till 5 stjärnor
Fint deluxerum, god frukost. Service vid middag en besvikelse, en av oss fick fel rätt, hantering i samband med detta ej godtagbar. Frågade vid ankomst om vinprovning och fick tidsangivelse, till vår stora förtret visade sig att provningen stängt den angivna tiden. Absolut inte femstjärnig upplevelse och på långt när inte värt det höga priset.

Alles in allem ein tolles Hotel, das aber ganz aktuell immer noch unter Renovierungsarbeiten steht, die zum Buchungszeitpunkt leider nicht vorab kommuniziert wurden. So war selbst das Begrüßungsschreiben auf dem Zimmer nicht auf aktuellem Stand. Das Fine Dining Restaurant Raphael’s war noch nicht eröffnet (steht aber kurz bevor!), das Essen der Sansibar wurde aber bereits in den Räumlichkeiten serviert, ebenso das Frühstück (im Begrüßungsschreiben war noch von der Hotellobby die Rede… wir sind froh, dass uns das erspart blieb). Bei einem 5* Haus hätten wir einen eigenen Spa Bereich erwartet, es gibt jedoch nur einen Raum in dem Behandlungen stattfinden (und Behandler von extern kommen). Außerdem können wir in Zeiten des Load Shedding nicht nachvollziehen, dass bei Betreten des Zimmers nach dem Housekeeping das Licht im Zimmer brannte und dass die Handtücher selbst dann komplett getauscht wurden, wenn sie ordentlich aufgehängt wurden - denn ein Schild wies explizit auf den Wunsch zum Wassersparen hin. Auf den Zimmern könnten kleine Details verbessert werden: das Informationsheft war fleckig und abgenutzt, die Vorhänge hatten bereits ein Loch. Service in Bar und beim Frühstück sowie die Qualität der Speisen war hervorragend, das lässt für das Raphael‘s hoffen. Der Ausblick von der Terrasse über Weinhänge und Berge ist einmalig!
