Le Château D'Etoges  

Muy acogedor ideal para un parate en medio de la vorágine por conocer nuevas ciudades

Es un viejo palacio en el que se conservan (o por lo menos así lo parece) los muebles, los accesorios... Todo es antiguo, todo encaja... Es precioso. El jardín, precioso, para relajarse y pasear. Indescriptible el estar leyendo en uno de los salones con la chimenea encendida, en un sofá comodísimo ... y cuando parecía que iba disminuyendo el fuego, apareció un empleado no se de donde para echar más leña... El restaurante, no excesivamente caro para la categoría del hotel, si peca de exceso de precios en alguna cosa, pero que es "normal" en Francia (12 euros una sóla copa de champagne, o 6 o 7 una de vino.... ) y rico, rico :) a pocos metros hay una cava de champagne que puede visitarse, aunque hay más en el pueblo. El pueblo no tiene mucho que ver, pero está cerca de Epernay o Reims, por lo que se pueden hacer excursiones interesantes.

Que no tuviera ascensor. Y como nos tocó habitación en el segundo piso, y nuestras maletas eran bastante pesadas.... No fue nada agradable lo de subir las maletas (que lo hizo personal del hotel) ni bajarlas.

El castillo y los alrededores son hermosos. El champagne del desayuno es de los mejores

A romantic place, excellent service The restaurant service was perfect and very professional. Our room was very special ,my wife said she felt like a princess we will love to come back soon ! What a great place to be inspired ....

The restaurant

That the breakfast wasn't included.

We had stayed in Epernay the town itself the night before but wanted to experience a Chateau and it was very good value and not far away from Epernay so it was quite relaxing to travel there.

We paid for a double classic room in the castle but it was still a very small room and up lots of stairs including a very steep sets of stairs!! Worth taking a smaller overnight bag with a change of clothes in it and toiletries!!

Food was good. Bed was very comfortable.

Lack of tea and coffee making facilities in room and the absence of a fridge. Eco excuse seemed a poor reason. If that is the case, then make the price more reasonable on the in room champagne. 15E to take away or 38E in an ice bucket.

The excellent restaurant

Restaurant was superb; buildings very attractive and historic

Great value. Loved the log-fire in the lounge.

Restaurant very formal and gourmet. Would be good is there was also a more casual option for food. Having to pay €18 to access the spa is a real negative.

The situation is good. Staff friendly

Been twice and had same room, it was only ok.Poor outlook and very low window. Moat is always empty when we go. Looks a bit tired now. Didn't like the menu at dinner this time. Poor breakfast

Dinner is fantastic, it appears an expensive luxury, but is in fact great value for money. Extra little dishes between courses even on set menus with the best cheese trolley I have ever experienced, make it in effect a Degustation Menu. Great Sommelier too and of course wonderful champagne, including some real local gems to go and buy at the vineyard the next day.

Restocking of room consumables was a bit hit and miss, ground coffee and a cafetierre in the room would be a real improvement.

We have been 4 times before and chose it to celebrate our Golden wedding It is one of our favourite places to stay in France

The restaurant was very good and the food delicious and good value

The public rooms at the hotel were very cold and uninviting

Location, history & friendly staff. We like this Chateau and have used numerous times for w/ends in Champagne area and on return trip from Skiing in Alps. Restaurant is very goumet, very good and very French.

Prices increasing to point where we will need look at alternatives. Also some removations ongoing (March 2013) with moat drained, some scaffolding and slight paint odours. Fridge & coffee/tea facilities in room would be a welcomed improvement.

Dog friendly good food

Amazing chateau in Etoges! The staff was wonderfully helpful and the accomodations were excellent. Period furniture in a wonderfully restored chateau, and all the necessities like Wi-Fi and flat screen TV's. Tres Bon!

We just loved our stay and are looking forward to go back in Spring and stay a few days to explore the region.

Friendly staff and very welcoming. Room was excellent and everything is well maintained. Restaurant was very good as well. Overall a great experience

Location Friendly receptionist Quite & Relaxing

Poor selection of food in the restaurant (especially for Vegetarians) Lack of initiative in the kitchen to produce a simple salad as a starter. The waiter's attitude (He told us there were no tomatoes because it was out of season) in the 21st centuary please!! The room had a problem with flies, we had to kill 5 flies in our room. In winter. The drinks room where there was supposed to be a log burning fire was a disapointment as well, the fire was lit but just smoked away with the help of an electrical blower. Not a flame to be seen anywhere. All the guest gave their comments to the fire. Atmosphere is everything, we would have had another drink but the dull fire was a let down.

The food was excellent and the wine list varied and well priced.

The lounges were tired and one person was attempting to cover reception and look after pre dinner drinks; it did not work !

This has got to be one of our top favourite places. It is totally charming and relaxing. Elegant without being pretentious. Superb service from everyone we encounterted.

Welcoming, pleasant staff. Excellent location for our return to Belgium from our Burgundy house. Superb dining and attentive staff
