The staff are welcoming and attentive, I attempted to speak French and when in difficulty found English understood by several staff members. The food & drink quality cannot be faulted, the room and communal areas very clean, WiFi works well :)) On the downside, the bath has a tap with shower attachment but no shower curtain, water inevitably splashes into the bathroom and makes the floor slippy. There was a problem with the bill, additional alcoholic drinks we had not consumed, check your bill carefully. Overall a good experience, the location is perfect for us for a stopover near the autoroute de Soleil.

Charming spot. A little tough to find but once there we were made to feel very welcome. Room had everything we needed, and dinner at their Bistro was delish - we shared the trout.

Beware of a rude staff member!
Good stop over hotel in a relaxed location. Almost excellent stay were it not for an extremely rude and arrogant member of staff who claimed, and worryingly may have been, the hotel manager. Would I stay here again... I'm not so sure after that experience!

Beautiful suite
Beautiful suite overlooking a lovely garden. Very warm welcome. Very good value. Excellent breakfast. Very attentive hosts without being overbearing. As we arrived on a Sunday evening and restaurants were closed, they made us a lovely meal which we ate out on the terrace. We can thoroughly recommend this chambre d'hote.

They insisted that I had not paid for the hotel with Expedia. I had to pay them for the room that I had already paid for. Now the problem is .....How do I get my money back? I should not have to pay twice for a room.

Immaculate and well appointed room. Excellent internet connection. Isolated location. Breakfast is expensive for what it is, and don't expect any help in carrying your luggage to your room.

Bel hotel et beau restaurant
Hotel très confortable. Accueil sympathique et efficace. Décoration intérieure moderne, mais soignée. Les chambres sont grandes et confortables. Il manque juste la possibilité de se faire un petit café en journée (pas de machine dans la chambre). Le lit est très grand et confortable. Le restaurant est très bon : repas Bistronomique à un tarif très correct.
