The hotel was excellent in all respects except one. The dinner was buffet style & at a cost of 3,000 per diner was disgraceful.The French onion soup was water with shreds of thin onion. The choice of meat was poor. Boiled beef is not popular but the capon was an insult. The carcass had been cut into chunks which had very little meat on them. Very disappointing The hotel website advertises an a la carte menu. When asked why this was not available I was told meals had to be ordered in advance. What utter rubbish. What was an enjoyable visit was spoilt by the buffet. Come on Panari you can do better than this.
