샤토 드 시시

I have stayed here a number of times, solo and also with my son. On this visit it was good to see that the rooms have been redecorated and upgraded with a new bathroom, decent shower, new window and a comfortable bed. The heating appeared to be on 24 hours a day and it was very warm. Each day a fresh bottle of Evian was left in the room. Breakfast was good quality, with fresh fruit, cereal, orange juice nice yoghurt, fresh croissants and more . Dinner really excellent, I had the demi pension which makes it much easier to choose because not only could I have eaten everything on the menu but what I did have was some of the best food I have had anywhere. Unlike other comments I had no problem regarding the attitude of the staff, perhaps it's their reaction to arrogant English visitors! Lovely surroundings, totally peaceful and a genuine quality experience!

I didn't stay here, but I had a long lunch here. Surroundings are lovely and the staff was attentive enough, but the food was entirely uninspired and totally without imagination. Pretty plates and very ordinary taste--nothing at all memorable: lunch for a single person for over $90 should be memorable. Foie gras was served dead cold with maybe a tablespoon of apple accompanying. Duck breast was somewhat overcooked and the sauce was so unremarkable that it might not have been there. Pear dessert was OK, but if you're going to poach a pear, add a little wine or calvados or even vanilla. Champagne flutes at 15 euros each are also not a deal. This was a birthday treat for myself, and it was a serious disappointment. Ordinary at best.

We didn’t stay and thank goodness for small mercies is all we can say. The place looked very tired and need a good revamp. We booked for dinner which was a disaster from the start. We ordered our aperitifs and perused the menu. One of our party is allergic to duck and another cannot eat fish. We asked if the kitchen could cook done chicken or possibly beef which we are told was not possible. We paid for our drinks and left in disgust, we traveled to Fécamp and had a lovely meal in a bistro.

The welcome at reception was perfunctory with no assistance offered with baggage. The room was small and no account had been taken of the well forecast exceptional weather conditions which meant we had to remove the huge thick duvet from the cover and sleep under the empty duvet cover. The shower head in the bathroom was too heavy for the flimsy fitting which my husband had to reassemble. The weight of the water made it fall forward , shooting water everywhere . It was reported but doubt it was fixed. Very thin towels. The only information in the room required using a QR code - with no overnight reception contact would have been tricky in an emergency. Everything seemed rather tired and formulaic, including the staff. A shame as it is a lovely venue and could be fantastic. The food is OK but the occasion somewhat marred by difficulties about where one was allowed to sit for a pre dinner drink. Really silly small niggles that need sorting out.

Le cadre est tout d'abord magnifique avec un parc très bien entretenu et le château en lui-même l'est également malgré que, nous en sommes persuadés, l'immense travail que cela doit nécessiter pour les gestionnaires. Notre chambre n'était pas particulièrement vaste mais tout à fait suffisante pour une escapade de 2 jours avec un dîner pris dans le restaurant de cet établissement qui s'est révélé tout à fait correct (la dorade était cuite à la perfection). L'équipe qui assure le service est jeune (peut-être en apprentissage / stage ?) donc quelques erreurs d'inattention mais il faut bien se former à un métier avant que d'être opérationnel à 100 %. Une très bonne adresse et proche de pas mal de beaux endroits à visiter (Veules les Roses, Fécamp, Etretat, ...).

Nous avons séjourné pour la deuxième fois au Château de Sissi et une fois de plus, tout était parfait. Le charme de ce lieu chargé d'histoire opère dès l'arrivée : la décoration du château et des chambres est raffinée mêlant élégance et authenticité. Le parc est superbement entretenu, un véritable havre de paix vous invite à la détente.La restauration est de grande qualité et surtout nous tenons à souligner l'accueil professionnel et attentionnée de toute l'équipe. Un grand merci pour ce merveilleux séjour, nous reviendrons une troisième fois !
