Villa Santa

Decided to spend two days traveling around Cesis with my Mum and booked Superior Deluxe Double Room located at Villa Carola. Hotel is in the nature with trees surrounded which is great for relaxation. Room was large, clean, pretty and felt cosy enough. The only thing I would suggest is to put a small rug in the middle of room or next to bed as it would make room feel cosier. There is not coffee and tea facilities in the room. Only two complimentary water bottles and two chocolate candies with welcome letter. Coffee and tea facilities available at the ground level. Sadly, no milk sachets. Bathroom was beautifully designed. Minimal but stylish. I'm a rain shower lover but this time I did not enjoy due to lack of water pressure or needing a good clean. Breakfast buffet was delicious. I did book a facial for my Mum, and she loved it! I then was invited to join her for a cup of tea downstairs at the SPA area. As restaurant was fully booked for the dinner receptionist recommended the restaurant called "Mango Sky Lounge" in the heart of Cesis. We did not enjoy the food and left disappointed. There are some minuses I would like to mention. Sauna facilities is not included in the room price. Even you will pay a full price of EUR150 for Superior Deluxe room. Windows from outside was very dirty and screamed clean me! Receptionist looked reserved and not willing to chat. Did not even ask how our stay was. Overall, we did enjoy our stay, and it is a beautiful place. I would come back if the price would not be so high or at least with sauna facilities included in the price.

Beautiful place with lovely large rooms. Very tastefully decorated. Sound proofing wasn’t great though, earplugs are a must for a good night’s sleep here. Could hear everything from the hallway and restaurant downstairs to our second floor room.

We stayed one night at Villa Santa and it was excellent. The old manor houses are beatiful and the rooms are large and in perfect condition. The staff was welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was OK. The location is very convenient to explore the castle and the surrounding region.

L'hôtel est situé au calme dans un grand parc, à l'écart de la ville. L'endroit est magique ainsi que les bâtiments eux mêmes. La chambre (Superior DeLux double room) est superbe, spacieuse, très lumineuse, calme et donne sur le parc et les arbres. La salle de bain est pratique. Le diner au restaurant de l'hôtel est bon et d'un prix raisonnable. Le petit déjeuner est un buffet offrant des produits frais. C'est un excellent point de chute pour explorer tout ce qu'offre le magnifique Parc National de la Gauja. Une étape inoubliable tant pour l'hébergement que pour la richesse et la beauté du Parc National.

Un hôtel au calme, dans la forêt, à proximité de Cesis mais surtout au beau milieu du parc naturel de la Gauja. Les chambres sont très spacieuses et le décor est reposant. Le personnel est très aimable et serviable.
