Wonderful courtyard to relax in, and very kind and helpful staff.

Jennifer United States of America

location, breakfast area/ courtyard is beautiful and breakfast is excellent, very helpful staff, great restaurants steps away, so convenient for visiting the château. Just perfect in every way!

Summer United States of America

Property was unique and well appointed. gorgeous garden to sit with a glass of wine. The village was adorable.

Catherine Canada

Location couldn't have been better, right in downtown. The room was nice, divided into two "room" spaces. Breakfast smelled delicious although we opted out of having any. The staff were so kind to let us have a free coffee and enjoy it in their hang-out room.

Layne France

Chic, simple design. Lovely garden. Comfortable beds.

James United States of America

The staff were welcoming and helpful. Room was comfortable and clean. Location is excellent for visiting the local chateau, local shopping and restaurants. Breakfast was great.

Sandra Canada

Picturesque setting. History of building that houses the hotel. Personalized service. Interesting proprietors. Small scale. Tasteful decor.

Pamela United States of America

Superb location and very close to the Chateau. Very helpful reception manager. Also, it was thoughtful to be advised by email that as it was the day of the Patrimonie we would have difficulty parking, which indeed was the case; but a solution was provided by the hotel.

John United Kingdom

Property manager called on the day of arrival and offered to make dinner reservations. All staff was very polite, accommodating and eager to please. Excellent breakfast for a very reasonable price. Perfect location near the entrance to the Chateau, much closer than walking from the parking lot.

Michael United States of America

Let us check in early. Manager spoke excellent English. Gave us a spacious room.
