Come and have dinner at the WONDEFUL 3 star Michelin restaurant but then sleep somewhere else. Not sure why it's even included in the Relais & Chateau list; the hotel and the spa are really unremarkable. Everyone's very friendly and it's all very clean and spacious but it really lacks character, which is what R&S is supposed to guarantee. Joigny's... More

The Hotel is little bit old fashioned, but it seems some of the rooms are renoveted, pitty we didn't have that room. Though the restaurant was amazing and really good !!! we had diner twice, and both night were perfect !!! GREAT EXPERIENCE !

The hostess / proprietor took pity on 2 bedraggled Aussies and gave us the best room in the house. It was absolute... More

I was at La Cote ST-Jacques for a weekend. The Hotel is very well located at the riverside facing west. It is partially renovated and what it is not yet renovated needs to be fast. Joigny the little town where it is has no atractions for tourists but you can visit Auxerre and Chablis that are nicier and more atractive.... More

The R&Ch book let us believe we had found what we were looking for. Unfortunately that was not the reality. I will grant that it... More
