From the Suite Collection — Suites No. 01
Suites With A View
Rooms where the window sets the rhythm of the day.
A view cannot be added later. It decides when you get up, how long breakfast lasts and whether you go out again in the evening or simply stay on the terrace.
This selection gathers suites whose position within the house makes the difference — not the address alone, but the floor, the orientation, the morning light.
What should you check with a room chosen for its view?
The orientation, not only the category. Two suites of the same type can mean entirely different stays depending on whether the light arrives in the morning or the evening. Ask about floor and aspect before moving up a category — often the less expensive suite with the better orientation is the wiser choice.
