    The property was beautiful Was not keen on the guests having dogs seem most people had a dog or 2 which is ok if the hotel has them but some were on the garden seats so they were covered in dog hair

    Fabulous place, amazing decoration and lovely welcoming staff. The garden and outside space are a great addition. Food excellent. Would love to return and spend longer next time! Highly recommend. Nothing

    Absolutely nothing to like about this supposed five star hotel. The suite was dirty with left over belongings from previous guests, the towels hard and dry, the high tech does not work, the pool is in fact a pond. The owner is very rude which translates to his staff, staff are barely trained and have no idea of customer service. The front office manager actually laughed in my face when I raised a complaint, so called welcome card had the wrong name entirely on it. Worse hotel experience I have had to suffer completely ruined by birthday. Most seriously, loud music was played above the room at around 6:40 a.m., waking the guest. When this disturbance was raised, the owner responded rudely and shouted instead of addressing the problem professionally. This conduct is wholly incompatible with any acceptable hospitality standard, let alone the five-star standard under which the property is marketed. The situation then escalated further: after a complaint was made, the owner evicted me the guest from the hotel and retained the payment. Being removed from the property for raising legitimate concerns about noise, conduct, service failures, misleading facility advertising, and malfunctioning facilities is unacceptable and demands urgent review.

    Absolutely beautiful property!! It’s a true oasis and the service was exceptional. Breakfast on the patio is a must! Our stay at The Notary was a highlight of our European trip through Paris, Amsterdam Bruges and Brussels. Everything was wonderful! The only suggestion I would make is perhaps more room for luggage and storage for clothing in the bedrooms, rather than the excessive decor.

    Everything about this hotel is exceptional. The room, the location, the staff, the food, the beautiful garden and the atmosphere, absolutely everything. What makes it truly magical is the feeling throughout the hotel, especially in the evening. The beautiful lights, the candles glowing around the garden and the music playing throughout the property create an atmosphere that is difficult to describe. From jazz and classical music to beautiful Arabic music, every sound seems to perfectly match the surroundings and the moment. There is something special everywhere you go. The garden, the lighting, the candles, the music and the incredible attention to detail make you feel like you are living in a dream. Without a doubt, one of the most amazing and finest hotels we have ever stayed in. A truly magical and unforgettable place. We will definitely come back. Nothing

    Gorgeous little boutique hotel, ginormous bed, sweet treats left at bedtime when they turned down the room which was a very lovely touch. Very close to the square and lots of little eateries. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Nothing at all, it was beautiful.
