A great hotel, gorgeous brand-new rooms, and what kind of views are there?…A cozy restaurant with good European cuisine. The price level is above average, but the interior, service and quality of the dishes are worth it. We were with my husband and parents, we tried different salads, hot dishes and desserts. My favorite was the shrimp salad. Everyone was very satisfied.
We really liked the cuisine in the hotel's Gastrobar. Great. The hotel is comfortable, the rooms are large, but a bit clueless. There is no zoning of the bedroom and living room. From the recommendations, please put a shoe shine machine at the entrance and the shoe horn in the room is not plastic, but a comfortable long one. It is also a good idea to add at least a bag of coffee and cream to the room, if there is a kettle.Otherwise, everything is fine.
Positive:
1) a new, fresh hotel
2) beautiful renovation in the rooms, fresh and clean plumbing and furniture
3) relatively good cleaning quality
Minuses:
1) The smell. It is impossible to breathe on floors and in elevators because of the strongly smelling diffusers. The diffusers are so powerful that all the clothes smell of it.
2) Food. There is a gastrobar at the hotel, where breakfast is also served. The cooking is disgusting - the menu is made with an attempt to take a swing at Italian cuisine, but it's impossible to eat it.
We took scallop risotto and chicken with asparagus with my husband, as a result, the risotto was over-salted, the scallops were rubbery, and the chicken had a disgusting sea buckthorn sauce that overpowered all the taste and had a terrible smell.
The breakfasts didn't live up to the reviews either. The buffet is one name, there are few cuts, everything looks stale, cheap and of low quality. The dishes on the menu from the continental breakfast also leave much to be desired - the sausages are tasteless, the draniki are unroasted and completely unlike the dishes in traditional establishments in Belarus, the husband found pieces of shell on top of the pancakes.
3) Service. The waiters forget the order after a minute, but the plates are literally torn out of their hands - each time the waitress took the plate from her husband at the moment when he was still eating from it.
Separately, upon check-in, while the hostess girl was trying to talk about the rules and amenities, the guard obsessively asked questions about where we came from, what we plan to see, what, when, and so on.
We will not return again, the hotel does not justify the assessment and reviews at all.
