8/10 Very good

Great location, especially if you are in a EV.

Great location, owner was a Electric car wizz which was helpful at times for someone who was using one of these for the first time. The owners were very prescriptive of how to tidy the flat etc. Perhaps they shouldn't rent on Hotels.com since this wasn't a hotel in any shape or form. It was disappointing that the accomodation wasn't physically in the main Residence, just a small lockoff on the side of the residence

Reçue comme une princesse …✨🌟

… dans un château ✨⭐️✨ C’est une véritable Maison d’Hôte, Francis & Horia vous attendent, vous reçoivent avec attention, vous chouchoutent et vous préparent un excellent dîner. L’impression d’avoir été visiter ma famille ❤️ Le château date du 17eme, avec un immense parc qui surplombe le Rhône. Une expérience reposante dans un cadre historique et naturel exceptionnel 🌿🍃🌾

静かに過ごせる宿

マリンの部屋に泊まりました。 ゆったり過ごすのに、素晴らしい環境でした。オーナーも親切で、近くも散歩すると発見があります。内装も可愛らしく、妻も喜んでいました。 9月に入っており、朝食をやっていなかったこと、エレベーターがないことなど、一軒家タイプにある面倒さはあるので、用途を考えて選ぶと良いと思います。

4/10 Fair

Rude owned

Owner was rude and arrogant. He enforced the 'House' rules like a tyrant and complained about everything you did. I am a polite and silent person who shows respect everywhere i stay but still complained about everything. For example; having to be silent when walking around the room while the floor itself was extremely squeeky. Many more of these complaints were done in an arrogant way.

Un site exceptionnel au bord du Rhône

Charmante maison d'hôtes. L'accueil de Francis et Horia est sympathique. Tutoiement d'emblée. Esprit convivial. On partage le repas avec les autres convives. La cuisine faite par Francis est succulente ( notamment la viande). Le produits sont locaux par priorité. Il faisait beau. La viande s'est fait cuire au barbecue.Top. Pour la chambre ( La Romantique) confort et déco soignée. Pour chipoter un peu on aurait aimé des WC indépendants de la salle de bain. Mais on chipote. Bref un vrai bon souvenir et une adresse qu'on se " refilera" entre amis.

jean marc, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very disappointing experience.

In all honesty we were very surprised by our stay after reading the reviews on this website. When we arrived we were not greeted warmly but lectured on ringing the bell too loud. And told at 17h we were too late to make a reservation for dinner eventhough we didn’t ask for one. When proceeding to the studio we were told we must clean the apartment by vacuuming and washing the dishes. Then we found the following note for us that if we unplug an appliance we would be charged xx, if we were late to check out charged xx, if something broke we couldn’t contest. Then there was an AC unit in the bedroom but the remote was purposefully removed. We opened the window as it was very hot that night but the AC unit for the other apartments was right outside our window - loud enough we couldn’t sleep. In a nutshell, we didn’t feel welcomed but honestly like we were a burden and on top of that a terrible night sleep. Would not recommend.

Amazing place, and amazing host

We are a familly of four, and stayed there three nights. We were happy to stay at this beatiful B & B. We were taken very good care by the Francis and Horia. They made us feel very welcome. It was an amazing experience. There is plenty to see around, but you need a car. Francis is very helpfull in recommenind things to see/experience. It is definitelly a place I would recommend.
Fatmir, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotels.com moet beter vermelden dat de gemiddelde kamer een gezamelijke badkamer gebruikt. Als je ..achteraf .. goed leest staat er idd dat een douche aanwezig is, maar niet specifiek: gezamelijk. Houdt er ook rekening mee dat dit geen hotel is maar dat je de gast bent van een familie. Deze kennen hun eigen gebruiken en regels. Dus geen anoniem hotel. Dit alles in aanmerking genomen is het een leuke beleving: bij de familie aan tafel voor het Diner of ontbijt. Kamers in goede staat

The chateau experience

Beautiful accommodation on the Rhône in a gorgeous little village off the beaten track. Very welcoming, personal service, family owned business. Spacious suite, lots of interesting artwork and artifacts throughout. Our room was a bit hot but we had a nice fan and we were in the middle of a heatwave across Europe. Definitely worth staying here. Great value.
