From the moment you arrive, greeted by the friendly dogs and the birds and the hosts, you know you have reached a special place. We stayed in the Prince room which was absolutely gorgeous and well worth the splurge. Dinner was absolutely fabulous with wonderful friendly service. Sightseeing itineraries were great and very helpful. I came away with the impression... more

We had a wonderful stay at this secluded Chateau - lived up to all our expectations. We stayed in the Chablis room, which was decorated in a classic style. The restaurant food was superb, with a good wine list, and the owner's were very thoughtful and attentitive. Before we left Europe our goal was to spend a night in a... more

We stayed here for three nights in November, and were absolutely thrilled with it. The grounds were beautiful and our room was lovely, with plenty of space and updated bathroom. The owners were wonderful and very helpful. Our only complaint was with the communal dining experience. Our first night we were the only couple dining there; the second night the... more

This is an upscale romantic low-key chateau in a great location. We stayed in the coach house as the main house was booked. After seeing the rooms I would stay in the coach house again. The rooms in the chateau were very nice but on the small side. The coach house rooms were more than adequate although if you are... more

This is a very difficult hotel for me to rate. The ambience is just extraordinary. It is a moted and gated imposing chateau set on 100 acres of land with a river along its side.

Our kids loved the Chateau and the surrounds grounds. There are wonderful friendly dogs and birds the roam freely on the property. The... more

This chataeu was the highlight of our driving tour around France. We were travelling with 2 children ages 3 and 4 and the proprietor were very accomodating (many luxury hotels are not when children are involved). The grounds are beautiful, relaxing and a pleasure to stroll. We wanted to stay longer tsimply to enjoy the grounds and relax. The food... more

This hotel is listed with the Relais & Chateaux group, but we first read about it in a Belgian magazine and was struck by its beauty. The chateau is tucked away in a small village, so it's not easy to find, but it is worth it. It is definitely the most impressive hotel in the area and perfect to make... more

You don't just happen upon the Chateau de Vault de Lugny. It is hidden away, and which ever of the two road you choose to take to get to it, upon arrival it does not disappoint. I would recommend the road from Avallon to Vault de Lugny along the valee du Cousin. Chateau Vault de Lugny is a gated,moated Chateau,... more
