Hotel Le Faisan Dore

Ease of access from Motorway free parking friendly staff

Decor looked tad tired

Nous avons passé 2 nuits dans l’hôtel avec petit déjeuner. La chambre était bien et le petit déjeuner ausdi avec du personnel très synaptique. Bon séjour

Breakfast was great. Location was OK but on a main road. Our room was at the back so not a problem.

Nothing

Hotel closed no sign of life. Went to another 5km up the road

Comfy bed and modern room. The evening meal was really nice and breakfast was outstanding with plenty of variety. Staff very friendly.

Hotel was in the process of refurbishment but this didn't really affect our stay.

Ideally located for a halfway stop on our way home. Everybody was so friendly, food was fabulous, the breakfast was lacking in nothing. Rooms were spotless and the bathroom facilities were great.

Extremely welcoming rooms and breakfast. Meals are delicious as well.

Like a motel on the road

1 night stay over with dinner & breakfast for 5 people. Superb service & food was amazing!

Wonderful room and superb bathroom. Fabulous bed and superb linen. Restaurant average. On arrival the hotel, situated alone on a long, quiet, straight stretch of road looked like hotel from a Hitchcock film. The long-neglected neon lit sign on the front seemed incongruous with Dickensian wooden beams, distinctive having been painted green. We passed a faded menu and entered the reception. The door did not creak, but otherwise all appeared as it had done in an original Hitchcock film, the wooden desk littered with hand-written notes, the pigeon-holes for letters remained largely empty, and a musty smell of 'old'. A congenial man whose appearance matched the style of the hotel welcomed us in French. We booked in, and selected our choices for the following breakfast, ticking boxes on an A4. We were led up some stairs which must have once been ancient, but had recently been covered with extremely hard-wearing surfaces that would not look out-of-place in a high-street bank. No creaking. We entered a huge room. We had booked the most expensive room to avoid disappointment. The bed was also huge. The modernised bathroom was truly magnificent. We were so delighted. Later we were to discover that the bed was wonderfully comfortable and the bedlinen was superb. We had a cocktail in the garden before going into dine. The dining room had been decorated by someone with unusual tastes. The waiter smiled knowingly when I joked about the wallpaper. Large red roses, orange carnations, and pink peonies adorned the walls, enhanced by orange and red tentacles that were the wall-lights. As it was Monday, there was only one choice on the menu, a chicken and vegetable casserole which was delicious. The following morning we arrived 30 minutes early for our pre-ordered breakfast. Looking around the room, some tables showed signs of departed guests, and others were laid out complete with selected food. We recognised our selection on one of the tables.

We felt the cocktails at 9 euros and the bottle of wine at 39 euros was a little expensive for France. The food at breakfast should have remained covered on the tables as there were flies in July.

Good size room and bathroom, convenient location en route to ferry

Would look to a better choice for evening meal even if it was a Monday evening.
