Overall the hotel you can just a Gran Hotel the old school title. The premises (foyer, bar, restaurant) are terrific and have a quality, in which some modern 5 stars hotels will be judged on. The huge garden and the direct location at the beach speak for the hotel. We had only booked accomodation and breakfast. The room was not the greatest, but nevertheless really great. The breakfast was a 5 star hotel really appropriate (huge fruits, constant nachbacken of bread/bread rolls, egg dishes in all variants), particularly the attentive service is to be pointed out.
