We recently stayed at the Auberge with friends of ours for an overnight birthday celebration as we only live an hour away and it seemed a perfect getaway place. The rooms were fine if a bit small and ours had a very nice bathroom. However the dinner we booked was a complete disaster, pretentious and incredibly overpriced. Living in France... more
This is a beautiful area of France and the hotel is situated in a quiet village on the edge of a large forest. (So you may want to take walking shoes) The hotel itself is charming and the gardens are a feature and perhaps best experienced sipping a chilled beer on the terrace.

However, we found the food good but very rich. The dining room was attractive. Service was excellent and not at all intrusive. Breakfast was good. Our overall... more
This hotel appears in a number of reputable guidebooks, but unfortunately it is misrepresented. This actually is not a good hotel and the pictures you will see of pretty, bright rooms are only the three on the ground floor. The others, the majority and all those in the featured annexe are very poor, dark, tatty and unmodernised, probably not since... more
