    Room a bit small and tired. Nowhere to put or hang anything in bathroom. Pillows poor but fortunately had our own in car (following two weeks in a gite). But clean and tidy.

    Location, handy for Cherbourg ferries but not in Cherbourg. Lots of safe parking and decent restaurant nearby (Le Donjon).

    No fans provided on a really hot night, luckily for us the receptionist pulled out all the stops and found us one.

    Lovely old castle.

    Fabulous to stay in the environment of the castle...dining room in particular is fab. Great continental breakfast. Obviously the rooms aren't modern...but everything is clean. Would recommend no problem. Don't depend on the bar etc being open...no staff in situ in hotel except for to check in and at breakfast. That's fine..as long as you know.b

    lovely situated hotel but in the absence of any staff or restaurant and coupled with the high price

    • Stayed 1 night

    We arrived to find the hotel had no food and the restaurant was closed, also the breakfast was overpriced for what was on offer, also the the price we booked via booking.com was not what we finally paid as everything including the breakfast AND taxes was subject to a further 10% VAT, which made the price very expensive, poor Sue was unable to elaborate on my querry of this charge, i am presently investigating as to whether this is possible.

    The communication was very good and they did ensure someone was there due to us arriving early. We were met by a super lady named Sue, she did everything in here power to ensure we could find food after our journey, at breakfast she was smiling and happy and it made the stay enjoyable.

    Beautiful on the outside, practical inside.

    The room was smaller than expected, moving around was a little cramped. It was clean and tidy but the decoration did not reflect the outside of the building. Paper cups provided for tea and coffee and in the bathroom. We would have expected china or pottery. The restaurant was shut and we had to pay to park as a fun fair was being set up in the town square outside (not the fault of the hotel at all!).

    Beautiful location, very interesting building in the heart of the town, close to the ferry port. Breakfast was good and the staff helpful.

    The restaurant has been closed recently. Disappointing as we had travelled for a long time and there was very little chpoice of places to eat in the town. The place that we went to was OK but not especially good.

    easy parking. Quiet. Nice room. Hot water good. Bed comfortable. Staff quite helpful. Beautiful & interesting old building. attractive surrounding coutyard and garden. easy walk into the town, which had a good delicatssan.

    Room needed a complete overhaul. Shower had mold in grouting. Dirty paintwork. No evening Restaurant. No bar. Gluten Free offering VERY VERY poor having notified on booking 4 months ago. Given one very dry GF roll delivered by HAND not even on a plate. Charged for cark parking - when our Booking confirmation stated Free Parking. We will NOT be staying here again.

    We chose because of being a Chateau and setting.

    Would have benefitted from a functioning restaurant and bar as restaurants mainly closed on Monday & Tuesday evenings. The savior was the DomJon Hotel across the road which was open fortunately.

    Staff were exceptional, friendly and helpful. Hotel room comfy, warm with an ensuite bathroom. Wonderful views of the rest of the chateau ruins and an interesting monument to WW11. Easy ample parking. Easy access to the town's boulangerie's and bars.

    interior decor needs addressing, bedroom doors are so out of character with the building. restaurant on the first night was buffet, disorganised but the staff were trying really hard, buffet was too expensive for the choices on offer.

    great character and history of the castle, parts of the old castle are visible inside the rooms and hallways. Nice location and surrounding area. Staff were friendly and helpful. bed was comfortable.

    We couldn't get UKtv channels. A minor point but annoying. The fridge in our room didn't work either so our fizzy had to be cooled in the sink. We took our dogs. I received an email saying it wasn't a problem for the dogs No mention they were going to charge €6 per dog. Don't mind but advanced notice of charges would have been appreciated.Our main complaint was the restaurant . We are the rare thing of vegetarian in France. We will eat some fish. Our main veggie plate cost €16.50 each for basically some pureed potato, a thin leek, a tomato and some courgettes with mushrooms. It was tasty but €16.50 is well well overpriced. Id recommend if veggie go eat elsewhere. No wonder they gave us an extra bread roll. The desserts almost made up for the shock of the main meal but not quite.

    The location in the town is great and I do like some history so the grounds were interesting The room itself was a nice size, well maintained and the bed was comfy. Bath and shower both used and v. satisfactory. The staff were helpful and polite. There were times I struggled with my French - and so did they - but they were patient so we got there. The view from the bedroom over the courtyard was nice - we travelled with our dogs and sometimes you feel like you're in a broom cupboard but here we were in the main part of the hotel - even if we were at the end of a long corridor.

    Very disappointing that there is no bar or restaurant. There is a brasserie outside the entrance but the menu is a bit odd. The other brasserie is more of a drinking place for young people although they did do a good tagliatelle. Completely unacceptable to be a hotel resident and to be charged 12 Euro to park.

    We slept. We had breakfast. Interesting place. Otherwise not much to recommend it.
