I don't want to make any complaints, we could see from the pictures that it wouldn't be a fancy accommodation. We went for the observatory and to see stars which was worth it. Just want to give an honest review. The whole place could use a bit of touch up. The bed is upstairs up a very small and narrow staircase which could be troublesome for some people, just good to be aware of this.

It's a very unique place to stay and worth it to get to use observatory in the evening. First the host showed us amazing pictures of stars and planets and gave some information about the universe. He doesn't speak English but we had someone who could translate. It was great. Then he took us to the telescope and we got to see some stars and a nebula. We only stayed one night so we're lucky no clouds were in the way.

Nothing

Our accommodation was great, the facilities available were very useful and it had clearly been cleaned well before our arrival. Olivier was extremely nice and accommodating, and was patient with his presentation while it was being translated from french to english by my partner. Despite it being cloudy at the start of our astronomic tour, when the clouds cleared up at the end of the evening, Olivier was more than happy to open the shutters and let us use the telescope. The observatory is amazing and well worth a visit, highly recommended.

Rien!

We loved our short visit to the Observatoire Astronomique. Whilst the old observatory is cozy, it is advertised as such and we had no problems with any of the facilities. It was quirky and original and as such much more interesting than staying in a more traditional type of accommodation. Our host Olivier was fantastic, very helpful, genuine and enthusiastic. The breakfast was lovely and Olivier made a few adjustments for the following morning to suit our request. A very attentive host and very much appreciated. The reason we booked to stay here was the opportunity of an evening stargazing and it didn’t disappoint. About 3 ½ magical hours of observing the stars and being amazed by not only the universe before our eyes but the excellent observatory that Olivier has built. For an amateur, it is an impressive feat. As our French is not fluent, we were very lucky that a fellow astronomy enthusiast was visiting, a charming optician from near Arromanches, Normandy who could speak English and was a wonderful interpreter. Thank you both for a wonderful and memorable time.

Eine ganz besondere Unterkunft ganz wunderbar gelegen mit tollen und liebenswerten Mitarbeitenden, die die Unterkünfte vermieten und sich mit großer Leidenschaft für die Astronomie einsetzen. Absolutes Highlight war die Vorführung am Abend mit all den wissenswerten Fakten aus der Welt der Sterne und sensationellen Blicken durch die Teleskope. Wir kommen definitiv wieder!

Ja, die Treppe ist eng. Ich musste sie rückwärts runter gehen. Aber wir waren nur zum Schlafen oben. Die Temperatur im Schlafzimmer war während der Hitzewelle sehr hoch. Auf Anfrage haben wir einen Ventilator bekommen. Zwei passende Weingläser wären eine gute Investition.

Wie auf den Bildern zu sehen... Klein und etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Aber wir haben es uns gemütlich gemacht.. Für zwei, drei Nächte okay. Das Bett, über das schon viel geschrieben wurde, war besser als erwartet und breit genug für zwei Personen. Gute Lage für Ausflüge. Gute Parksituation. Sternenbeobachtung war sehr interessant.

- Unterkunft ist sehr klein - sehr schmale und steile Treppe zum Schlafzimmer - keine Klimaanlage im Schlafzimmer, was im Hochsommer problematisch sein könnte

- außergewöhnliche Unterkunft - idyllisch - kostenlose Astrologie-Show für Gäste der Unterkunft
