I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location in the beautiful forest just outside Cēsis is fantastic, providing a peaceful atmosphere, the room was uncomfortable due to stifling heat even with windows open. The service was friendly but not exceptional, and although the dining options had potential, breakfast was rather disappointing compared to other meals. Overall, I think it has great value for money, but some improvements could make it perfect.
