Apart from a few hiccups in the beginning, it was a very memorable trip. The location and consequently the view from the hotel is breathtaking. The food is amazing. So is the hotel infrastructure and the ever-courteous staff. Even though its being renovated, there was no mood-killing noise or any other sort of inconvenience. Its a place you absolutely must...
