After you see the sign off the D10, it’s a 15 minute anticipatory drive toward the grand entrance. You will not be disappointed, the grounds are breathtaking. If you arrive after sunset, go slowly as the directional signs are not lit and they are small. When you come to a fork in the road, stay right. Methi in Reception provided a warm welcome, offering a gel for my sisters’s sore back. We benefited from her attentive hospitality and missed her on her days off. Our six day stay was magical, enhanced by the most wonderful staff. They brought my sister a large heavy plastic sealed bag of ice for her sore back. Three days in, Rhazi, from room service, brought her another without her asking. Kevin in Engineering showed us how to operate the tv and returned to change batteries in our room phone. Nightly, Rhazi and others from Room Service, brought a wine bucket full of ice for our room, as Americans, we love ice, even in bottled water. Our Junior Suite with terrace with seating for six was perfect, providing the extra room we needed for an extended stay. The setting was extremely quiet, even over the busy weekend. We appreciated the little touches - bottled water for our car each morning, bottled water for the room every night along with a little sweet which changed nightly. The buffet breakfast offerings were endless: order eggs cooked to your liking, pancakes, French toast, smoked salmon, a large cheese selection, cereals and granolas, homemade bread and endless breakfast pastries. You’ll take your breakfast in the stunning Le Jardin Michelin star restaurant. We ordered Room Service three nights, tired from a day of touring the area and preferring not to go out. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Even on the night when the kitchen was closed, a staff member brought us a modified menu. Try the artichoke barigoule with bacon and onion, it was a nice surprise, more like a light vegetable soup. Treat yourself with an extended stay, you will not be disappointed.

This is the most beautiful place. We loved the estate and the staff were exceptional . The restaurant was an event and we loved every minute

The hotel is located in a stunning area — surrounded by nature, with beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere. We really enjoyed the grounds: there’s a vineyard, a lovely (though cold) pool, a tennis court, and plenty of relaxing spaces. The property itself is definitely a highlight. One thing we especially appreciated was the bedding — the pillows, duvets, and mattress were absolutely perfect. However, we felt the value for money wasn’t quite there. The à la carte dinner and bar were overpriced. The massage we tried in SPA didn’t feel worth it either. The main pool looked great but was always ice-cold — we hardly saw anyone swimming. It’s a shame, as it could have been such a nice spot to enjoy. There were also some small issues with service. For example, our restaurant booking wasn’t passed on by the manager, so there was confusion when we arrived (though we were eventually seated). Also, room doors had poor soundproofing — noise from the hallway was quite loud. Finally, we only found out about the hotel’s activity schedule when we were checking out — no one told us at check-in, so we missed it completely. Overall, it’s a beautiful place with great potential, incredibly comfortable beds, and relaxing surroundings — but the experience didn’t fully match the high price for restaurant and service.

Beautiful restoration of a grand old building where the old was kept and modern added with great style. Would have loved more time to fully enjoy this beautiful Chateau and surrounds.

I stayed there with 8 friends for a long weekend of hikes, rafting, wine tasting, good food and spa. It was an excellent stay and we would love to come back.

Impeccable service, gorgeous natural surroundings and ultimate relaxation. The staff are consistently courteous, accommodating and friendly. Food is outstanding. The winery tour was among our best ever even though this is not a wine region we favor. Spa and pools were perfect.
