The dinner was pretty good. I don´t like circule beds. I had it! If I knew about it before doing my reservation I´d not do it ou ask not to be put in a room with this shape of bed. Photos were much more beatifull than the room we staid at.

The scenery in the Chateau d' Esclimont was like entering a fairytale. Very romantic and gives you the feeling that you go back in time The castle is very well preserved considering it is almost 450 years old. The gardens and the lake are beautiful places to take a walk and enjoy the nature. The stuff was excellent , very kind and helpfull. I will definately visit the Chateau again. The restaurant was very expensive .

leaving To begin with there were live bats flying round the corridors outside the bedrooms and the food was awful - the worst meal I have ever had and a real rip off. My starter (£25) tasted of salt and water and my monkfish (£30) was three small dry overcooked pieces with six cold soggy tempura vegetables. They did at least refund me the cost of the starter. The wine list starts at £38 with screw top wines which my local supermarket sells at a £5. The staff were friendly but did not seem to care about the bats or the food - when I sent my first couse back the reply was 'the main course will be better' - it wasn't. No apology! The tennis courts were about 20 years old and unplayable as the all weather service has not been replaced. The bikes and boats on the lake are good. Internet at 12 euro is outrageous. We were ungraded to a room with a rack rate of 255 euros - what a tired dingy room - I hate to think what the original room was like. The outside of the building looks fantastic but don't be fooled this is not a 4 star hotel in any way or form. Our bath had a shower but no shower screen!

Top quartile but not the best in class. Restaurant first class but on the expensive side for what you get. Excellent environment, well kept. Top quality service. It is good but not so much better than hotels at half the price.

I stayed at the Chatueu L'esclimont as it was ideal location outside Paris and for meeting with a friend for dinner in a classical environment. The staff were very helpful and courteous, and all my requirements were well met and exceeded. I will be back! i would have liked at breakfast, that i would be at least served with the coffee!

Having stayed there some time ago, we were pleased to reserve a room again, on our way to the south from the uk. The rooms are still good, and the hotel is still in the 'luxury' league. The restaurant is good, and the food and wine list excellent. The hotel was quite busy, and the staff looked a little stressed out. There was a fashion photo shoot going on in the grounds meaning that parts of the grounds were off limits for guests ? On reflection, we think the service didn't justify the cost of the room which was in a block quite far from the main hotel. Ok if the sun is shining but if it rains, and it did the night we arrived, getting across to the hotel for dinner was a dilema walking across wet chalky paths, especially for ladies in expensive shoes !

chateau and grounds, general ambiance, friendly and helpful staff particularly in the bar no turn down service (not sure if this was intended or an oversight) only 2 small pillows for king bed, scratchy blanket. Internal shutters meant room was very hot during the night (no air conditioning) and also let light in in the early hours of the morning. All of the above made for an uncomfortable and wakeful night.

The Chateau is a beautiful and very rare example of an architecturally striking moated chateau, only an hour south of Paris. The staff was very accomodating, but the property felt sort of empty like the building overpowered the few guests staying there.

The setting was perfect, and the room nice though not the best deluxe twin that we have had before. In the beautiful setting, my wife and I were looking forward to a good meal. Sadly, we were very disappointed! The meal was expensive as one might have expected, but the quality of the final meal was not worth the 5 star billing. Indeed both our meals were so poor that we complained to the restaurant manager immediately afterwards (having left part of our respective courses). The cost of our evening meal was deducted from our final bill, and I think that was justified. We did not stay for breakfast because we were so disappointed. It was a great shame, as we had both been looking forward to our stay. It has put us off trying the other hotels in the group.

Этот отель имеет претезию на *замок - отель* и если кому то приходит в голову как это говорят окунуться в старину, ощутить атмосферу настоящей Франции, пожалуй можно сюда приехать.. Но я в этом замке останавливаюсь не первый раз и не чувствую шарма и загадочной атмосферы. Внутри все отлично и соответствует высокому стандарту обслуживания.. отделка, комфорт.. и поэтому я воспользовалась этим отелем с целью выспаться после путешестви по замкам, перед работой в Париже. Прекрасное расположение около автострады. Парк с прудом и птицами. Здание снаружи поражает своей величественностью!

La disponibilité et la gentillesse de la plupart des membres du personnels qui m'ont accueilli sans snobisme ( encore une fois, pour la plupart). Les tarifs raisonnables des chambres. La vue de ma chambre Les moustiques, les araignées, les toiles d'araignées, le manque de signalisation en fin de parcours de nuit pour trouver l'hôtel. La soupe à la grimace de certains serveurs au petit déjeuner. La déco de la chambre. L'écran de la tv trop petit et trop loin du lit.

“We found the staff extremely attentive and helpful. There was one small 'glitch' and that was resolved in a very prompt, courteous and generous manner. Probably the best guide to a hotel is how staff deal with the unexpected, and they came out 5 * as far was we were concerned. The building is very tastefully renovated and we wish we had been staying more than our one night.” Hugh, London |
