The restaurant with a terrace
The hotel restaurant is located in the corridor surrounding the original chapel and opens onto a beautiful green terrace. The menu was designed and created by chef Nick Bril. He challenged himself to go beyond his signature style and designed an à la carte menu inspired by global cuisine, focusing on local products, seasons, and terroir. Try, for example, the excellent Arborio risotto with morels and winter truffles.
The bar in the historic chapel
If you want to relax with a drink, the bar is a must. You can choose between the original chapel with the high ceiling (the most beautiful place in the hotel for sure!) and the beautiful covered terrace outside. Many snacks, small appetizers and drinks including the house cocktail with Gin Marula, rose water, champagne and rose syrup.
