Nice little gem out of the beaten path. Host was amazing and bear fast was delicious. No air conditioning was the only down side of the stay… it was a bit hot. Other then that it was very good.

Not a hotel. It is at best a B&B. No restaurant or bar and in the middle of nowhere. No food service other than a woeful breakfast. Rooms are very basic. It is in fact a charity providing accommodation for children with dementia. That's fine - but none of the above transparent on Expedia or website.

Mina

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were disappointed with several aspects of our stay. Although Room 9 was spacious, it was very basic, and the overall condition of the property left much to be desired. The towels provided were old and torn, and the shower was rusted with barely any water pressure. The chateau itself appeared poorly maintained and quite run-down, giving the impression of a lack of strong and caring management. During a walk in the otherwise beautiful forest nearby, we were disheartened to see construction waste dumped along the road. Additionally, the reception was not staffed when we checked out, so we had to leave our room key on the front desk. While the property carries the name of a chateau, the experience unfortunately does not live up to it — especially not at the $200 price point. If the original owner who donated it were to see the current state of maintenance, they would likely be disappointed. The atmosphere, which is meant to be peaceful and tranquil, was disrupted by a group of young men walking around playing loud music. Although free car charging is provided , the outlet is outdated and incompatible with most modern electric vehicles, making it of little practical use. On the positive side, we arrived late but received clear instructions for accessing the room after hours, which was helpful. The breakfast was decent and sufficient to start the day.

Hôtel avec un charme bucolique mais en mauvais état. Isolation phonique catastrophique. À éviter si vous souhaitez dormir après 7h du matin un dimanche. Personnel rare ou peu disponible. Joli parc. Grand parking.

Bonne literie, grande chambre, néanmoins quelques améliorations pourraient être apportées : lumière/liseuse de chaque coté du lit, ajout d’une bouilloire/machine à café/thé en chambre, variété du petit déjeuner (ex pain), chambre peut être un peu trop sobre.

Nuit étape au château de Briançon

Agréable découverte que d'apprendre que l'établissement appartient à une association et que cela permet de la faire connaître. La chambre est confortable et propre. Très calme. Très bon conseils concernant les restaurants aux alentours. Petits déjeuners copieux a 12 € contrairement a ce qui est annoncé sur le site.

Absolutely amazing and much cheaper than an equivalent hotel in the UK. Bedroom was huge and spotless. It was a super king double, with lovely views over the countryside. The continental breakfast was superb. There is no kettle in the room, but you do have access to a kettle outside, so bring your own tea and coffee.
