Déçu !!!

Climatisation vétuste d’où le mauvais rendement, une arrivée avec 27C dans la chambre et nous sommes repartis la température était descendue à 23 alors que le Clim a fonctionné non stop durant 2 jrs nous avons demandé à la propriétaire un remboursement qui nous a été formellement refusé. Odeur nauséabonde,dans la chambre Sdb 2 ampoules sur 3 au plafond HS,vmc Hs sans fenêtre.lits Înd. 80x190, pas de moustiquaire du au plan d’eau sur la propriété . Petit déjeuner très moyen et coûteux (19 euros) pas de double vitrage. Bruit de passage de voitures vu que la propriété est en bord d’une départementale à fort passage. Le 3 étoiles est à revoir et pour cause les plaques de classifications étants validés pour les plus récentes jusqu’à 2023

Hotel charmant, bon rapport qualité-prix

Très belle bâtisse, jolies chambres, jolie terrasse et jardin agréable au bord de l'eau. Personnel très sympathique. Je n'ai pas mangé sur place donc je ne sais pas si c'est bon, cela dit le restaurant etait plein Et la carte était appétissante (Avec des prix relativement élevés cela dit). Seul petit bémol : la proximité de la route plutôt passante.

A charming old mill full of character and well presented. Dinners were quite superb with excellent food and service. Aircon in room was much appreciated. Tall people beware - low beams and doorways upstairs in bedroom and corridors but it adds to the character! Garden and terrace very nice but you do need a car to get anywhere, which wasn't a problem for us. We'd stay again. No tea/coffee making facility in room.

Delightful hotel with charming assistance from reception. The hotel would benefit from a 'room service' or alternatives to the a la carte menu. Rooms would benefit from a coffee maker - like a Nespresso that can cope with tea as well. But overall, not bad value for money and a nice environment.

Hôtel de charme très bien entretenu situé à Challons à une dizaine de KM de ROYAN. L'hôtel est agréable, calme et le style est rustique pour les salles de restauration. Les chambres en revanche ont certainement été revues par un décorateur et ont un style plutôt moderne. Elles sont particulièrement spacieuses et très agréables. Point négatif cependant, l'hôtel même s'il est situé dans un environnement verdoyant avec un ruisseau à proximité, est néanmoins en bordure d'une route nationale très passante. Pas de piscine ou de salle de sport dans l'hôtel et le petit déjeuner est moyen.

Nous n'avons pas profité du restaurant excepté pour le petit déjeuner qui fût également remarquable. Aucune raison de se priver d'un séjour dans cet hôtel.

Hôtel de très grand calme, dans un site magique.

Hôtel installé dans un ancien moulin, face aux marais. Délicat paysage qui rappelle la camargue. Surtout ne pas craindre la proximité de la route, on l'oublie dès qu'on est à l'hôtel. Le jardin se fond avec l'environnement. Parfaite isolation sonore des chambre. Endroit idyllique pour passer une nuit ou un séjour. Gastronomie assurée. Petit déjeuner copieux. Propreté absolue.

Séjour idéal!

Cet hôtel nous a offert un excellent accueil, à l'arrivée, durant le séjour et jusqu'au départ. Personnel professionnel, discret mais disponible. La chambre double supérieure était un véritable écrin de confort, de propreté et de bon goût dans sa décoration. Vous y trouverez les petits-déjeuner copieux et le Wifi gratuit partout. Vous apprécierez tout particulièrement un jardin extrêmement bien fleuri et entretenu, un plan d'eau frais et une grande pelouse de relaxation. On regrette hélas que la vue ne donne que sur l'esplanade où se garent les voitures, et une route derrière l'hôtel dont les voitures troublent la tranquillité visuelle du lieu, car les murs épais et le vitrage coupent avec efficacité tout son une fois dans l'hôtel. Le Moulin de Chalons est idéalement situé entre Royan et Saintes et la carte de son restaurant rivalise avec toutes les bonnes tables de cette belle région. Retour assuré :)

An experience to remember!

I would just like to preference this review with the fact that my wife and I are from the United States and were traveling throughout France for our 20th wedding anniversary. We had spent many days in Paris at a 4 star hotel chain prior to heading south on our adventure. We booked this hotel with the help of Hotels.com and did not know what to expect as it was off the beaten path, but we were up for an adventure. Neither of us speaks a bit of French so we struggled a little at first, but the staff was incredible. Although they spoke very little to no English we worked through the language barrier and were brought to our room. This hotel is as charming as they come and is actually a renovated Mill. The room was perfect and overlooked a creek that powered the mill. It was very clean and equipped with the latest in technology including wireless internet. Once we learned how to work the old fashion skeleton key for the door lock we could not have been happier with the room. We decided to eat dinner at the hotel and let me tell you, it was an experience in itself. The chef is a master when it comes to new flavors and combinations. My wife and I are not ones to normally spend 50 to 75 dollars a plate for dinner, but because it was our anniversary we dove in head first. I had the Duck and Sturgeon and my wife had the chicken. Our meals were unbelievable! From the wine and appetizers', to the cheese selections and desserts, we were not disappointed with one bite. Truly this meal would have been three times the price in the states for this kind of quality. I also want to say the waitresses were incredible. They again spoke little to no English but were extremely helpful deciphering the menu. Overall this was a one of those experiences my wife and I will never forget. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a romantic get away. Thank you Moulin de Chalons for making our anniversary a special one.

Superbe moulin rénové

Très beau moulin de marée du 18ème magnifiquement aménagé en hôtel. Service discret et attentionné. Chambre impeccable mais un peu petite. Restaurant bien mais on s'attendait à mieux au regard de la réputation dithyrambique. Très bien situé entre Royan, Oléron et Rochefort.
