Beautiful Lodging, Excellent Service
Posted 23 Sep 2023 on HotelsThe reception staff were super helpful before and during our stay, advising us how to get to the hotel from the nearest train station (and recommending a cab company since they needed to be ordered in advance). We were warmly welcomed and super pleased with our rooms, which were beautiful, modern, well thought-out and very comfortable. The lounge areas were cozy and reflected the historic building that houses the hotel. Our dinner in the peaceful courtyard linking the hotel with its adjoining restaurant was delicious, and the service friendly. The breakfast buffet next morning was extensive and included cook-your-own soft-boiled eggs and the best croissants, plus (house-made?) lox salmon. The only downside was that the hot weather required us to sleep with our windows open. Unfortunately, this subjected us to the noise from the restaurant kitchen as the staff finished tidying up after closing. If we'd been able to keep our windows closed, it wouldn't have been an issue.
Other than that, I can't say enough good things about this delightful hotel.

Bonjour we are so pleased that you enjoyed your short stay with us. The inner court yard is indeed a fabulous setting for al fresco dining. Sorry that some guest left later than usual, hence the clearing that ended later than usual. Looking forward to welcoming you back. Kind regards Mieke, proprietor.

Escape in the Loire Valley
Posted 23 Aug 2021 on HotelsGreat location for visiting vineyards in the Loire Valley. The room was comfortable and had character. There was a small pool on-site with lovely gardens / flowers. The restaurant served very high quality food and English was spoken throughout.

We do not understand why you give such a low mark on Expedia when you gave us top marks on our hotel questionnaire! Most probably you got 'good' and 'bad' mixed up here?
