Étape incontournable
Pros:

L'emplacement : vert (forêt) et paisible et pourtant à qqs km de l'autoroute (et du Futuroscope pour les amateurs) !
Les chambres : simples mais modernes et propres.
Le restaurant, délicieux et raffiné avec un excellent service le tout pour un prix tout à fait raisonnable
Une étape incontournable pour nous depuis des années sur le chemin du pays basque !

Cons:

Franchement je ne vois pas

Niet voor herhaling vatbaar.
Pros:

Nette en ruime kamer.

Cons:

Op zondag kun je er niet lunchen of dineren. We hadden bij aankomst, om 15u niet de mogelijkheid om iets kleins te nuttigen wat ik ontzettend vreemd vind. In de buurt lag alleen een McDonald‘s die gelukkig wel open was! Het ontbijt was oké. Niet veel keus en het servies was alles behalve schoon.. jammer! In de omgeving is niks te beleven. Voor alleen een overnachting is het prima, maar dan is het alsnog aan de dure kant voor een 3 sterrenhotel waar niks in de omgeving te doen is.

Sympathique hôtel que nous avons utilisé comme étape lors d'un voyage vers le sud, à recommander
Pros:

Emplacement proche de l'autoroute mais comme a la Campagne. Bon restaurant et petit-déjeuner buffet. Piscine et terrasse sont un vrai plus.

Cons:

Rien à signaler

See above
Pros:

We stayed in one of the chalets - it was clean and tidy
The service in the restaurant was very good and courteous

Cons:

The chalets are premium rate and we believe when booking one a reserved car parking space directly outside the chalet
We also think the restaurant has become too nouveau cuisine - they usually have a burger available to satisfy diners with simple tastes but thus wasn’t available during our stay. We also found the restaurant to be expensive for what is provided
We have stayed here many times and this is the first time we have been somewhat disappointed

Disappointing after having 3 previous stays lovely stays with you. Not very good customer service
Cons:

We were delayed for four hours at the Eurotunnel so unfortunately didn’t arrive until 10.10pm. We were really thirsty and understand we were too late for food. Even though there were still people in the restaurant the bar man refused to serve my husband a drink. Very disappointing for a hotel

Great place for a stop-over or longer stay
Pros:

Great location just off the motorway. Clean and friendly, with great evening dining and extensive breakfast. Ours was just a stop-over - should have stayed longer to explore Poitier

Cons:

Nothing - hotel was as described in the boking details

A good stop over
Pros:

We have stayed here several times now. It’s a really nice convenient place to stop on route from UK to Spain.

Cons:

This time there was a general lack of care to the outside of the property. The terrace hadn’t been weeded for a while and the furniture was filthy.
The breakfast was not up to standard, there were flies all over the food and not one member of staff to be found in the restaurant.

Easy place to stay, but expensive and I would give the restaurant a miss.
Pros:

The location is helpful for a quick stop off from the motorway. It’s a dog friendly hotel and the rooms that are ground floor that over look the woods is well worth it for letting the dog outside.

Cons:

Bit expensive for the type of hotel it is. Dogs cost an extra €30 which is the highest that we found while travelling. We tried to eat in the restaurant, once seated we waited 25 mins and no one came to even take a drinks order, so we left and went to macdonalds to just get some food.
