I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, offering a beautiful view from the terrace, although they looked smaller in person. The service was excellent overall, with a smooth check-in process and friendly staff, but there was one staff member who was quite rude. The location was fantastic, especially if your room doesn't face the main road, with the hotel boasting great dining options and being in the heart of Durbuy. The dining experience was exceptional with a well-presented spread of meats, salads, breads, and more, though the Sunday brunch starting at 8:00 was a bit late for my taste.

On the plus side, the location was great, right in the town center with beautiful views. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were brief lapses. The dining options were varied and delicious, but not without small hiccups. The facilities were adequate but could use some updating.
