Unique spot!
A unique property with an amazing staff that handled every request with a smile and desire to help! A nice breakfast. The chocolate factory was an interesting tour and the samples were great. We were well positioned for a great morning of walking. I highly recommend!

Nice hotel near city center and shopping
Hotel is one of the newer ones in the area. First time in any hotel that we had to use room key to keep air and lights on. We stayed one night and it seemed after awhile the a/c stopped cooling. We are not certain that’s normal. We woke up at 5am to cut thermostat down. The staff is very helpful and all seemed to know English. Room was pretty clean. The only notable dirty area was the floor. That is probably harder to keep clean during a busy season. Only noticed floor due to a towel being dropped on it... Overall pleased with our stay at this hotel.

True to its name, they have carried the Chocolate theme throughout, in surprising ways, including toiletries! And you get free entry to the Chocolate museum in the basement of the original factory.

Excellent lobby service. Candido went beyond to resolve my autoparking. We couldn’t see much of the surroundings cause it was raining.
