TripadvisorJul 2026

Across TripAdvisor (32 positive, 2 negative) and Booking (2 positive, 1 negative), guests consistently highlight the hotel's vegan offerings: multiple chefs prepare special vegan meals daily, buffets feature numerous plant-based options, and staff proactively accommodate dietary needs. Named chefs like Mahesh and Edinho earned praise for custom vegan dishes and desserts. Agoda reported extremely limited buffet vegan options (1 negative claim), and a few TripAdvisor guests noted missing vegetarian desserts on display and mislabeled vegan items on the buffet, though kitchen staff accommodated requests upon inquiry.

No vegetarian desserts, accomodated veg dessert upon request thanks to the Chef but there should have been at least one option already there. Cards were misplaced on the buffet - some food items were marked as vegan organic and placed in non veg area.

Da wir eine Veganerin in der Familie haben, möchten wir an dieser Stelle gerne die Küchenchefs Jean Marc, Kunal, Suraj und Edinho hervorheben! Jederzeit haben sie sich die Zeit genommen und die veganen Gerichte des Abends aufgezeigt bzw. zusätzlich was gezaubert und immer ein veganes Dessert bereitgehalten.
