Chateau de Bellefontaine

We booked this hotel because it was in a château and it looked romantic and unique .However there were many details lacking overall. Firstly avoid the restaurant at all costs even though the three course meal was only €29. The food preparation and quality was terrible. Please see attached photos. The salmon I had was overcooked from frozen salmon and the greens were likely frozen greens that were boiled to mush and no longer green. The risotto was just rice coated in some weird cream and had some tasteless pieces of chicken slapped on top. We did not finish the food. They clearly also need more staff as our receptionist was doubling up as a waitress, and we noticed that there were some waits and gaps in service. The room was compact and clean, but the details were lacking. For example, the fixtures and appliances were the cheapest variety possible and didn’t match the Luxe feel that the hotel is going for. The location is slightly out of town and a 20 minute walk to all the main sites in the old town. The grounds were tidy and very pretty in photos.

Wonderful place to stay. Great food, rooms, and staff. It is truly as wonderful as the pictures and discriptions on the website say.

Horrible room and mediocre hotel do not go there....we got a room in the attic and pigeons trying to go inside the room no AC and it was super hot they gave us a fan. Look at the pictures have you ever seen such a bathroom with a wood beam right down the middle.. Ugh

Very very poor service, reception seem to think customers are an inconvenience, Breakfast poor, better at the Ibis. Unbelievably, they left 2 coffee capsules for 2 customers for 2 nights, if you wanted more then you have to pay !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And if you drink the coffee room service don't even bother to clean your cups. Bathroom door would not shut and very noisy. Nice public spaces but the hotel seems to think as its nice building they don't have to provide a good service.

Lovely building in a good location with a pleasant and hardworking staff, but let down badly by a very, very poor chef. Our two meals in the restaurant were both extremely bad qualaity, which is unusual for France. Water in the room was charged for, and there were only two coffee capsules and two tea bags for our 3 day stay, which made us feel as though corners were being cut. For the price, I regret that this was not a hotel I would recommend (and I am a very experienced traveller).
