Nossa estadia no Castelo de Itaipava foi maravilhosa. O lugar é encantador, bem cuidado e com uma atmosfera única que nos transporta no tempo. O ponto alto, sem dúvida, foi a visita guiada: uma experiência enriquecedora e essencial para quem se hospeda no castelo. Conhecer mais sobre a história e os detalhes arquitetônicos torna a estadia ainda mais especial. Vale muito a pena incluir esse passeio no roteiro!

Castelo Itaipava

Esperava mais do hotel; não concordei com o aviso tanto no contrato, quanto no quarto sobre danos nos móveis, o que eu concordo, mas sobre as tolhas e lençóis achei um pouco exagerado e com uma tabela de preço muita alta. Café da manhã é bem servido, porém o preço de cada refeição é alto.

decepcionante, pra ser ruim precisa de muito

Check-in as 15h, já acho um absurdo, mas ok! O problema era q tínhamos um casamento às 15:30, a falta de empatia sobre a possibilidade de antecipar o checkin foi pessima pela equipe de atendimento, atendentes totalmente mal educados, sem resposta conclusiva, nem ao menos um diálogo. Decepcionante. Lugar mal cuidado, restaurante com comida extremamente ok nada demais. Promete muito e entrega pouco. Decepcionante

O castelo em si é bem cuidado e o quarto grande e confortável. Os restaurantes são bem medíocres e fecham cedo. Como o hotel é um pouco isolado, o restaurante poderia funcionar minimamente até mais tarde. Não há opções simples, como um sanduíche no cardápio. As placas na entrada do hotel tem um aspecto de velhas, o que dá uma péssima primeira impressão ao hóspede. Acho que é uma boa opção para quem viaja com crianças, pois tem várias atividades para esse público. Para ir em casal, eu escolheria outro local.

Precisando urgentemente de manutenção

O local é lindo, mas falta manutenção. Fui usar a banheira e saiu uma água com cheiro péssimo… cheiro de esgoto. O banheiro ficou inundado e tive que limpar. O café da manhã é bem simples… só tinha o básico. As instalações são de fato interessantes e imponentes. Mas vários locais apresentam desgastes e este problema no quarto comprometeu a minha estadia. Não pretendo voltar.

A different castle experience

The slowest check-in experience- in spite of pre-booked rooms. Clean and spacious room - but do make sure to get a room on the other side of the highway - or bring earplugs. Cool place in all meanings. Beautiful garden area and well maintained garden.

Excelente para casais

O primeiro quarto que ficamos estava com vazamento no banheiro, não havia tapete de chão e nem toalha de rosto, armário quebrado e com muita poeira e sujeira embaixo da mesa de cabeceira. Além de ser extremamente pequeno, tanto o quarto quanto o banheiro. No dia seguinte, fomos realocados para um segundo quarto com uma categoria superior e não tivemos problemas. No restaurante Taberna, os quadros estão muito tortos.

Gostei mas pontuo melhorias

O hotel em si tem uma estrutura maravilhosa, porém apresenta sinais de decadência. Parece um hotel que já foi muito luxuoso e perdeu a qualidade e vários aspectos. Por exemplo, na chegada, você tem que estacionar o carro na frente da entrada, fazer check in, depois voltar e estacionar o carro no estacionamento, que não é tão perto. Deveria ter vallet, hotéis muito mais simples possuem este serviço. O café da manhã é bom, mas nada demais. Muito longe do que eu imaginava ser o café em um castelo, copo americano, guardapo de papel mais barato, achei que pecaram muito. Sem contar o ambiente do restaurante, tumultuado de móveis e freezers sem utilização, passando aspecto de botequim. Jantei no restaurante, o atendimento muito ruim e pedi a carne muito bem passada e ela veio cria, sem uma apresentação diferente, em baixelas comuns. Não é que seja ruim, mas não é condizente com o preço e não faz jus à expectativa de um castelo.

Frustração

O espaço com a história intrínseca esse é lindo mas fiquei insatisfeita com o colchão que afundou, com a banheira que era desconfortável e fraca. Mas o que fiquei mais decepcionada foi com o convite que foi feito para um clube vip que a pessoa que me convidou estava no local onde marcou e quando fui encaminhada pela recepção para o local onde aconteceria uma apresentação, ao chegar falaram que eu teria que esperar uns 30 minutos. Avisei que iria embora 12h e então escolhi o horário das 10:30. Acabei perdendo minha manhã pois me programei para o encontro. Achei uma forma muito desrespeitosa de tratar um hóspede. Isso denigre a imagem do estabelecimento.
