All these are meant to be read as reversed, just add a not, no, any etc All of these are standard in many luxury hotels, 5 star hotels and Relais Chateaux affiliated hotels.

Stunning hotel, but surprisingly INFLEXIBLE. As a family with kids, we felt UNWELCOMED. Not being able to book the restaurant as guests was disappointing, especially given the price point.

This Relais & Chateaux property is magnificent! The lobby of the hotel occupies the former chapel at the convent and the space is stunning. Our rooms were incredible. The hotel has recently been renovated and it is spectacular. Breakfast was included in the rate I had booked and it was wonderful. Hotel has a L’Occitane Spa which was amazing. I cannot use enough adjectives to describe this phenomenal establishment. WE WILL BE BACK!
