Categories

Cleanliness
8.6
Standard quality for this hotel tier.
Service
10
Multiple positive mentions of accueil and friendly staff ('personnel d'accueil aimable', 'l’accueil') and guests praising the welcome; service is consistently highlighted as a strength.
Location
10
Repeatedly praised: central emplacement, beautiful village and surroundings, greenery and calm — location is a clear strong point.
Room Quality
6.5
Several complaints about very dated rooms/bathrooms (salle de bain très vieillot, baignoire sans pare-douche), noisy/poor soundproofing and issues with the bed — room quality is noticeably below expectations.
Amenities
7.6
Mixed signals: SPA is praised but there are explicit criticisms that the facilities overall 'don’t match promotional hype' and 'facilities poor' — amenities exist but are inconsistent.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed-to-negative: comments that comfort does not justify the price and that offerings are expensive; one review praises rapport qualité/prix, but overall perceived value is below expectation.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Generally positive: Michelin-star restaurant, bistrot and cuisine are praised, though some note high prices and limited breakfast/choice — F&B is a strong feature despite cost/selection concerns.
Overall Experience
9.5
Predominantly positive overall impressions ('We loved literally everything', 'Très satisfaits', 'Agréable et calme'), tempered by comments about overhype and facility shortcomings.

Bon séjour
Pros:

Établissement avec beaucoup de charme. La chambre était confortable. Bien placé au cœur de Lyons la Forêt.

Cons:

La salle de bain était un peu vieillotte et minimaliste. Pas vraiment à la hauteur de l’établissement. Le petit déjeuner pourrait être amélioré.

Prix très élevé pour le peu de prestation au final…
Pros:

Le cadre est magnifique,fleuri et au calme.

Cons:

Il faisait une très forte chaleur, pas de Clim pas de ventilation. Chambre vue jardin réservée, on a eu une chambre au dernier étage vue sur la rue. ( soit disant surclassée…) Arrivée à 18h30 plus de serviettes au spa de disponible. On nous annonce que le lendemain nous n’aurons pas accès à la piscine qui est privatisée. Restaurant/bistro en pénurie de glaçon le soir… Le petit déjeuner était bon mais jus de fruit et yaourt à température ambiante lait tiède au lieu d’être chaud… pas top…à notre départ la dame de l’accueil n’a rien voulu entendre a part nous dire qu’elle ferait remonter l’information à la direction et qu’ils reviendront vers nous. On attend encore… vraiment déçu.

It worked for us, but wouldn't stay again
Pros:

Location is excellent

Cons:

Room was quite small. There was only a handheld shower in the bath. No wall mounted shower fixing. The bathroom extractor fan did not work, hence bathroom got steamy.

Pros:

It's a very nice hotel. With alot of character. On the inside the old beauty is kept and it gives very cozy vibes.

The only thing was that the wifi didn't work.
We didn't ask for help because we only stayed one night so it might have been resolved easily.

Tip for visiting the town. Nothing food wise was open in the evening (Do not believe Google because he said things were open but they were not). Only the Michelin restaurant was open. It's probably because we visited in mid season but we had to drive a couple of towns farder to find something.

The staff was very nice though and the breakfast was really good.

Over hyped hotel
Pros:

The hotel has a Michelin star restaurant as part of the facilities,in which, we ate one evening. A very expensive meal with equally expensive wine but that was to be expected . However, the facilities just don’t match promotional hype the place is given

Cons:

Facilities poor

Séjour d’une nuit en famille.
Pros:

Son emplacement, le SPA et le restaurant bistrot.

Cons:

Très vieillot (notamment la salle de bain) et trop bruyant (pas assez d’insonorisation intérieure). Pas la hauteur du confort attendu au vu du prix affiché.
