SĂ©jour qui aurait pu ĂȘtre meilleur surtout pour la chambre exiguĂ« manque d’armoire donc impossible de dĂ©faire sa valise pendant 3 nuits, salle de bain avec baignoire et non pas de douche qui serait mieux adaptĂ©e, lors de la rĂ©servation il n’était pas prĂ©cisĂ© que 1 chien doit payer 10 euros par nuit ce qui n’est vraiment pas justifiĂ© car il ni a aucun service pour lui et cela devrait ĂȘtre mentionnĂ© lors de la rĂ©servation, déçu mais le personnel est trĂšs respectueux

Et hotel der oser af historie Ja det er et gammelt hotel men det har charme og man fornemmer at her har mange siddet pĂ„ terrassen og nyt sin morgenmad. Er du til paragliding sĂ„ er dette hotellet du skal vĂŠlge Ejeren kĂžre kurser i paragliding og da vi var der var et helt hold pĂ„ kursus. Det var bare sĂ„ anderledes i forhold til et “fint” hotel med 24 timers roomservice Det var lidt ligesom at vĂŠre hjemme, skĂžnt og afslappende Vi kom Ăžvrigt kĂžrende fra Spanien og havde lidt problemer med Vores Gps men vi fik god hjĂŠlp fra hotellet til af finde det. Vi kom efter midnat men de havde sĂžrget for der lĂ„ en nĂžgle til os sĂ„ vi bare kunne gĂ„ op pĂ„ vĂŠrelset. Tusind tak for opholdet NĂŠste gang vi er i omrĂ„det sĂ„ kommer vi helt sikkert forbi

Sehr gemĂŒtliches Hotel - gerne wieder

Empfangen wurden wir, ich habe den Aufenthalt fĂŒr mich und einen Kollegen gebucht, 3-sprachig. Wer Frankreich kennt - das ist die Ausnahme. Der Empfang war herzlich, sehr hilfsbereit. Das Hotel prĂ€sentiert sich aussen, vor allen Dingen von der RĂŒckseite wo sich die ParkplĂ€tze befinden, im gewöhnungsbedĂŒrftigen Zustand – wir hatten echt Sorge, eine Absteige erwischt zu haben. Innen jedoch stellt es sich sehr charmant dar. Grosser FrĂŒhstĂŒcksraum, nette Einrichtung, sauber und gepflegt. Ich wĂŒrde wieder buchen.
