6/10 Good

Great service and bistro, uncomfortable room

Excellent service from front desk and excellent food from the bistro. The property is very cool. Unfortunately our room had some issues. One was what seemed to be a faint lingering smoke smell. They had an air freshener, perhaps to mask it, but it was too strong and we put it outside. Second, the bed was hard and very uncomfortable. Lastly, plumbing issues, the shower head was spraying all over ceiling. The AC was shut off for season, but it was still quite warm in October when we stayed, so that added to the discomfort.

Vi havde en enkelt overnatning her, og det var ganske fint. Ikke noget wow men et ok hotel med en dejlig pool. Restauranten der imod var en god oplevelse. Og der er ikke en finger at sætte på servicen.

Close But No Cigar

Nice spot overall but not quite the country chalet we were hoping for. The hotel itself was nice but right off the main street and a rather unattractive alley/roadway. The town it's in is nothing to speak of. Zero restaurants and nothing to see. You can drive a little to the neighboring town which is very charming. The bistro they offer as an alternative to the fine dining is not worth trying. Wifi was terrible and the pool had a light that was not secured and floating by its wires like a buoy. Didn't look terribly safe. I directed my children not to swim anymore. It was concerning to say the least.

Très bel établissement, à la hauteur de ses 4 étoiles ! Arrivés un jour férié nous n'avons pas pu profité du restaurant gastronomique car fermé, par contre le deuxième restaurant était parfait excellent rapport qualité prix !!

Calme et volupté

Familier de ce lieu depuis les années 1980, je n'ai jamais été déçu. Tout concourt à votre bien-être : le confort des chambres, la grande gentillesse du personnel, la finesse de la cuisine, le calme de l'espace piscine et surtout la parfaite humanité de M. Jany Gleize.

Très bel hotel

L'hôtel est plein de charme avec un joli jardin et un très belle piscine. Les chambres sont spacieuses et disposent de très belles salles de bains. Malheureusement l'une de nos chambre avait une climatisation défectueuse et les 2 nuits ont été difficiles. Nous avons dîné au restaurant gastronomique et cela vaut également le détour. Le petit déjeuner est également très bien.
