We stayed two night and as it were, we stayed in two separate rooms. The first room was nice but lacked a coffee marker. The second night we stayed in a privilege room which was slightly larger and had a sofa. The restaurant was closed but the bistro was open. Overall, a pleasant stay but nothing exceptional.

A great hotel and even better restaurant
We have stayed here a few times over the years, but not for some time. We had previously stayed in the original building, but this time in the ‘new’ to us rooms - actually built in about 2000! Whilst the rooms in the main building offer more character, the newer ones are more comfortable, and have air conditioning. For us the main reason to come here is the food. It has always been good but has definitely gone up a level. The service is also exemplary. The house is set in spacious gardens with ample parking. An oasis of calm!

This is an excellent hotel with friendly, helpful staff. The hotel has a great, Michelin starred restaurant. We have stayed stayed here 4 times on our way down to Provence, and would recommend it highly. This time we tried their Bistro about 800 meters from the hotel but found it disappointing, and next time we stay will dine in their (hotel) restaurant again.

Hotel near Ampuis
Lovely hotel room. Friendly resident swan in a small pond as you approach the building. Manon at front desk was exceptionally nice and extremely helpful in so many ways. Had dinner first night at sister hotel's restaurant, Le Cottage. Very good informal bistrot. Last night dinner was at the Domaine's Michelin 1 star restaurant. Excellent food and the chef/owner was extremely personable. Location a few minutes from the N7 made it a short trip to Ampuis, Condrieu and Vienne. Overall, we were extremely happy with the hotel.

Gastronomic delight
Beautiful peaceful setting. Rooms were lovely but we had asked for one large bed and ended up with twin beds all be it pushed together. Bedding and duvets were for single beds. so marks off. Food was excellent. Cheese board to die for.

Early to bed
The hotel was beautiful and clean except for ants in the bath. However they took in the terrace cushions about 9 pm on a balmy Friday night with a full moon and then turned out the exterior lights before 10 pm. I would say that unless you plan to go to bed early don't go here.

Excellent all round
We really enjoyed our stay here, the hotel was situated in a quiet remote location. Our room was in an outside block, it was very comfortable and clean. the evening meal which we had to take because we were so far away from any town was excellent and at a price that you would expect for the service and cuisine provided.

Wish we had known
Our main reason for choosing this hotel is that it has an excellent restaurant. Then we found out it was closed. It was inclement weather and we had driven from Paris. Hadn't wanted to go out at dark and try to find a restaurant. We ended up at the only restaurant in the village that served cuisine from the Reunion Island. The host was very pleasant, but this wasn't the food that we were looking for. OUR POINT: MAKE IT CLEAR ON THE WEBSITE WHEN THE RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. I understand that restaurant closings are frequent during this season. The people at the hotel said I could have found out the information from their own website and they don't inform booking websites of closures. I did send an email to the hotel asking about the restaurant before I booked it, but never got a response. Oh well. Will work harder next time to get the information.
