Guest Reviews
- Antoine (9/5): -
- Andrew (7/5): Overnight whilst walking the via francigena - It is hard to find accommodation on this part of the Via Francigena and this is a great and extremely good value option, with a good restaurant and nice bedrooms. For the price I wouldn’t have expected any more
- PATRICE (8/5): Situation géographique et confort de l'hôtel apprécié. Bonne restauration régionale originale - Accueil très agréable. Chambre très propre, spacieuse et très confortable (nouvelle douche) et surtout au calme. Cuisine du restaurant présente des plats régionaux bien dosé et originaux.
Petit déjeuner copieux et varié. Tout ceci avec un prix très abordable.
- Stéphanie (8/5): -
- Ambsuperboun (8/5): - Bien placé pour visiter Clairvaux. Chambre simple mais propre et de bonne taille. Petit déjeuner et dîner très bien. Dommage que l'hôtel et le bar ne soient pas ouvert toute la journée. A notre arrivée nous aurions aimé partager un petit verre au bar, et le premier bar ouvert était a 14 kms
- Markus (6/5): -
- yves (2/5): insatisfait - la sympathie du serveur et sa gentillesse chambre n° 1 - douche d'un autre siècle !!! - lits doubles élecriques !!!!!!! qui demande ça dans un hotel !!!!- hotel fermé à l'arrivé à ouvrir avec un code et personne pour vous accueillir - escaliers en bois dangereux pour une personne agée -
pas de prise dans la chambre pour recharger un telephone - établissement vieillot qui permet d'entendre beaucoup de bruits lorsque les autres clients descendent le matin
- Valerie (10/5): - Un immense merci à toute l’équipe pour l’accueil hyper chaleureux !
J’ai fait étape pendant une itinérance à vélo, j’ai pu mettre mon vélo à l’abri pour la nuit.
TB bon déjeuner avec pain et croissants chauds (et dès 7h , vraiment top).
Un vrai bonheur de trouver ces établissements avec une âme et un vrai sens de l’accueil ❤️❤️
- Sebastien (9/5): - Offre de restauration avec des produits faits maisons.
Chambre spacieuse.
- Kevin (10/5): I would stat again - It's a little Inn that is really worth a visit. Nice people , nice breakfast Nothing
- Guest (7/5): -
- Guest (8/5): -
- alessandro schena (9/5): - Ambiente e staff
- xiaoping (10/5): 很满意的住宿体验。 - 半夜12点到达,根据该旅馆提供的信息,很容易进了大门并且拿到房间钥匙。 上午退房时间太早了。
- Pascal (9/5): - Le service,et ambiance
- Joanne (10/5): Perfect stopover - Friendly, clean and comfortable hotel serving authentic french cuisine. It has a bar and also sells some local produce. An ideal stopover from travelling through France close to the motorway.
The area is very peaceful and in pretty surroundings with walking trails nearby including the long distance trail GR 145. A lot of history in the area with the Abbey across the road and the Chemin des Martyrs a short walk away. We stayed in the family room which was idea with two teenagers. Only a one night stay but would definately reccommend and would happily stay again if in the area and explore a little further. Nothing
- Guest (8/5): -
- Steph (9/5): - Convenient location, good sized rooms. Food looked good, but we didn’t eat there.
- vickers (8/5): - Lovely quiet place just off the motorway. Restaurant below and we tried the burgers (took them back to our room) which were nice.
There is also a bar/pub adjacent to the restaurant that we would have liked to try, if we had more time. The toilet made a very loud noise/vibration when flushing as it is some type of electro-mechanical retrofit. It's a common solution in these environments and is not a problem if you are expecting the noise.
- Fabrice (8/5): -
- Ester (8/5): -
- Jane (8/5): Dog-friendly and great value for money. - Room 16 was on the top floor with an oblique view of the Abbey. It had a bed, small table, chair, TV (French channels) and kettle (paper cups 2 sachets each of coffee and tea; no milk). The bathroom had a sturdy steel bath and piping hot water. Our evening meal was good - I had a vegetarian salad and the cheese platter as my main course and i was more than happy with it; my husband had a main meal; we both had a pudding and a glass of wine - the cost was very reasonable. Breakfast was good (the order is taken the previous evening and served in the hotel dining room). Staff were friendly and cheerful. The location is quiet, but it’s just a 10mn drive directly from the motorway. It served its purpose very well as an overnight stop between Calais and the Alps. WiFi in our room was very poor (its strongest in the bar and dining room).
- Lindsey (7/5): - Location - easy access from motorway, Clairvaux Interesting. Decent food, good price Room was cold and took a long time to heat up (upper floor)
- Marilyne (9/5): -
- JOHN DAVID (8/5): we would love to come again (using the higher graded rooms). - warm welcome from the staff, and locals! excellent food and service, interesting decor. Quiet area, close enough to motorway bathroom - very small, very much in need of refurbishment.
- Brigitte (7/5): Bon séjour - Le calme Les rideaux pas assez large pour nous protéger de la lumière extérieure et du jour
- Richard Freeman (8/5): Embrace the character, and that makes it a great way to start the first leg of our holiday. - It made a change to stay in a real place with character rather than these motorway hotels, rooms were quirky with a small village location, locals in the bar and an excellent restaurant. Don't expect it to be pristine and new, it is not, but that is what made it a fun place to stay.
- Laura MiLo (7/5): Fait l'affaire pour un nuit de passage - L'emplacement. Les lits étaient un peu petits pour un adulte.
- Steven (1/5): -
- Francis (8/5): - Ambiance familiale et décontractée....le bar avant le restaurant permet de passer un très bon moment
- john (7/5): -
- C. (8/5): -
- Yann (8/5): - Un personnel accueillant, une bonne literie et un excellent rapport qualité-prix. Déco assez moyenne, chambre plutôt fraîche à notre arrivée (15-16° je pense) et pas de chauffage dans la salle de bain.
- Tanya (8/5): -
- john (8/5): - Grappig hotel echt Frans
Leuk gelegen
Lekker gegeten
Leuke bar
Aardig personeel
Goede prijs kwaliteit verhouding
Prima informatie hoe je binnen kon komen Niks
- Joline (7/5): -
- katia (9/5): le personnel est adorable ! le cadre est magnifique ! -
- Jean (8/5): - La planche de wc n'est absolument pas adaptée.
Il manque aussi un petit fauteuil pour pouvoir attendre dans de bonnes condition sa compagne qui se prépare. La gentillesse du personnel.
- Prosper (8/5): Efficace -
- Mourand (10/5): Rapport qualité prix excellent . Repas sur place très bon et copieux .Petit dej super - Super établissement. Accueil chaleureux . On aimerait trouve plus souvent ce genre d’hôtel Rien
- Valentina (8/5): - Struttura antica ed affascinante.
- Salim (8/5): Nice little place to stop off. - Location for trip back to Calais Plain breakfast
- Michael (8/5): - Personnel très agréable et déjeuner très copieux 😁. La prochaine fois on mange le midi là bas. Le matelas qui n'était pas très confortable mais bon on a aussi des soucis de dos et peut être les wc avec semi broyeur qui fait du bruit 😅 on est gêné de tiré la chasse d'eau la nuit.
- Neil (10/5): - Friendly staff and very clean room setup perfectly as requested
- Raphaël (10/5): - Établissement très confortable, bien situé et chaleureux.
- Chantal (7/5): - Tout était bien mais les chambres n'étant pas isolées phonétiquement on entendait tout ce qui se passait dans les salles d'eau des autres chambres La mauvaise isolation phonique
- TOMAS (6/5): -
- Bruno (5/5): -
- Ann-Sophie (9/5): - Professionalisme van personeel. Iedereen is super vriendelijk en ze kennen het vak om mensen een goede ontvangst te geven.
Lekker gegeten in het restaurant. Prijs kwaliteit is super! Verouderd gebouw, geen geluidsdichte kamers. De kamers zijn basic. Badkamer is aan vernieuwing toe.
- christophe (8/5): -
- Joscelyn (8/5): -
- Roger (7/5): The staff and the location - handy for the motorway - more than made up for any shortcomings. - Restaurant, staff and self check in arrangements were excellent. The rooms, beds, decor and linen (particularly towels) are showing their age. The bathroom (room 5) has a new shower enclosure but it's very dark.
- Bruno (7/5): -
- Thomas (8/5): - Das Hotel liegt direkt an der größten ehemaligen Abtei Frankreichs. Wenn dort ist sollte man ein Besichtigung einplanen ca1,5 Stunden
- filiep (9/5): -
- Patrick (7/5): Om als tussenstation te kiezen is het een prima locatie - Rustige locatie en het lekkere eten Het geluid in en om het hotel hoor je wel
- José (10/5): -
- Michel (8/5): Satisfaisant - Le site l'accueil informel
- Nicolas (9/5): -
- Paul (6/5): Good value, convenient location good price. Prefer to pay more for better standard of room - Liocation, Parking and ease of access (clear instructions left for us). Decor
- Hans (9/5): -
- Yves4868 (6/5): étape interressante pour la restauration avec un excellent rapport qualité/prix mais boules quiès - la partie restaurant et le petit déjeuner était parfait.
la décoration très cohérente
la vue sur l'abbaye
la possibilité de garer sa voiture en sécurité sur un parking dédié. le bruit extérieur, le bruit intérieur
la fréquence des passages des camions
la porte des toilettes qui coince sans pouvoir la verrouiller
- Moran (8/5): It was great - Location was great for motorway No shower curtain and no shower holder
- Michel LAURENS (8/5): -
- Fabrizio (6/5): -
- Martine (9/5): - Goeie ligging, achter de hoek vind je de abdij op wandelafstand.
Zalig bed, echt uitzonderlijk goed.
Sanitair in orde, ontbijt voldoende uitgebreid.
Ze deden veel moeite om zaken aan te passen voor mijn glutenallergie. Hygiëne in gemeenschappelijke delen zusenzo, maar de kamer zelf was netjes
- John (7/5): - Location while travelling through France from Orange to St Omar was great. Room facilities were poor with paper cups, no milk for limited drinks. However, the literature implied you could ask for help but we didn't test it.
- Jennifer (8/5): -
- Elodie (10/5): Merci! Très bien -
- Federico (10/5): -
- ange (8/5): - Le restaurant L heure pour le petit déjeuner. Et devoir quitter la chambre à 10h
- Will (8/5): -
- Susannah (8/5): Great for a family stop off! - Perfect location on the way back up to England from Annecy. We booked last minute around 4pm and arrived very late but there were detailed instructions around how to enter the property and locate our room keys. Family room served us well on the top floor. We left at 7am so didn’t get to meet staff but overall a good experience :) No complaints
- Jemima (6/5): Convenient, comfortable stay. - Convenient stop off near the autoroute. Restaurant on site and reasonably prices rooms Slightly dated bathrooms and no blind on the bathroom window
- AUDREY (10/5): Belle découverte - Nous avons été agréable surpris par l'accueil et la qualité du service. Établissement qui mérite un peu plus que deux étoiles.
- Elina (8/5): - Family room was actually 2 separate
- Moran (8/5): - Rustic hotel close to motorway which serves great food No shower head stand
- Schibli (8/5): - Das Frühstück war sehr bescheiden...
- Luke (6/5): - Used as stopover on our way to the Alps - perfect location.
- vilcans (5/5): Good for one night stay - Have a little shop and restaurant on site Showers very outdated
- renja (10/5): Zeer fijn hotelletje - Een eenvoudig « baan hotel »,
Lieflijk en alhoewel aan de baan gelegen een zeer rustige buurt .
Het diner was traditionele en zeer lekkere keuken.
Zeker een ommetje waard
- Richard (6/5): -
- Richard (8/5): Simple, comfortable and good value; full marks for dinner and breakfast. - This is a two star hotel and there is no pretence to luxury. But they get the basics absolutely right. The room and bathroom was recently renovated, clean and adequately large. The dinner was very good value, simple French country fare, freshly cooked, with good value and very drinkable house wine. Breakfast was traditional French, self service, good bread, proper coffee, croissants etc, yoghurts, juice, fruit and fruit compote, nothing cooked. Excellent if, like us, you are fed up with elaborate and pretentious international breakfasts. Family run, friendly staff. We would come again.
- Raymond (3/5): Poor - Location Very very tired badly in need of facility update, which is a shame because it could be so much better. Restaurant food OK good value but limited choice. Very busy road with a lot heavy lorries.
- Ivan (8/5): - Extremely good value, kind service. Good stop on longer road trip. Would come again
- Nicoletta (7/5): Good -
- Helen (1/5): Couldn’t get in to our room, creepy and useless. - We arrived at 1:30am after pre arranging late check in with the reception staff. Our key was not there, we couldn’t check in and are now driving around in the middle of the night looking for another option.
- David (8/5): - Quirky hotel great food and friendly staff.
Would stay again. No A/C.
- Daniel (2/5): Mauvaise expérience. Méfiez-vous ! - Une déception. L'hotel ne possède pas d'ascenseur, notre chambre était au 2e étage, l'escalier pas pratique du tout, pas possibilité de changement, donc nous avons dû repartir, sans remboursement de la réservation, lamentable. Je déconseille fortement
- SONIA (10/5): Hôtel propre et calme - Très bon accueil, hôtel et chambre propre et spacieuse. Bon petit déjeuner. Hôtel bien situé et au calme. Je recommande sans aucune hésitation!
- Nadia (8/5): Very good -
- Robert (8/5): Good simple hotel, great value - Good location for trips across Eastern France, near an Autoroute junction.
l've stayed twice now Good quite traditional hotel with restaurant. Frienfly staff and excellent value. Some may think the stairs too steep!
- MARIE-HELENE (10/5): - Excellente soirée au calme.
- Marcus (8/5): - Ganzes haus leider sehr hellgörig. Ansonsten super!
- Chris (6/5): Reasonable - Friendly staff. Good meal Should have asked for a first floor bedroom. 2 flights of stairs which were steep & difficult on 2nd floor
- Susan (9/5): All good. - Comfortable lodging and tasty food. All good.
- Ineke (6/5): - Het is een oud hotelletje, maar wel schoon. De incheck kan pas vanaf 18 uur. Als je een dag voor aankomst reserveert, ligt er vanaf 17 uur een sleutel klaar.
- Viv (7/5): Good - It was easy to find in a good location on the Via Francigena. The meals were excellent. The bathroom was very small
- Simone (8/5): - Goede prijs-kwaliteitverhouding verhouding. Geen luxe maar prima kamer. Inrichting wat gedateerd. Heerlijk eten ‘s avonds in het restaurant en prima ontbijt.
- Andrew (8/5): Very good - Good location
