Traditional stylish hotel with great staff

One of the declining number of traditional 3/4 star village/small town hotels that are being replaced by the bland massive chains The staff were brilliant, especially Head Waitor Luc who was charming, interesting and very helpful. The village with its castle is very run down with a large derelict hospital, numerous closed hotels and empty shops, but still worth a visit as a stop over.

We had a great time at this property. It is a lovely old building with beautiful inner courtyards and an excellent restaurant. There is an outdoor pool which my husband took advantage of and the hotel is located next to a spa. Unfortunately the spa is closed at the moment for renovations with no date given for reopening. The bedroom was well decorated and the bed extremely comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Bourbon L’Archambault is an interesting historical town and well worth a visit. We would gladly return to this hotel for further explorations.

Beautiful luxury hotel. Excellent restaurant.

The hotel is beautifully presented and clean! Dinner in the restaurant was exceptional!! Breakfast is available at extra cost but recommended as it was really good! Some of the staff spoke English but it helps if you are prepared to speak a little French! Our dog was welcome and they were pleased to see her!! We would have liked coffee facilities in our room.

Delicious food and very good service!

My husband and I used this hotel as an overnight stay on the way to Calais, it was a better alternative than our usual overnight stays in motorway hotels! The town was difficult to get in and out of because of the numerous one way road and lacked effective signposts. The hotel, although beautiful and quite pretty on the outside has a rather faded grandeur feeling inside. Our room was in an annex and was clean and tidy and the decor was rather old fashioned. We had dinner in the restaurant which was absolutely delicious and was traditional french style, the service was excellent and the waitresses were lovely.
