Guest Review: Beautifully designed and presented. Superb staff, so friendly and helpful. Fabulous cuisine. One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in
Guest Review: Our room was in the main château building and it was fabulous. Very clean, very comfortable, well appointed. All the staff are professional yet very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was incredible both in the range of products offered and the quality. We loved using the bikes provided and explored the spectacular (and immense) property.
Guest Review: Beautiful historical property in the heart of Montignac with very convenient private parking right in front of the property (note that is on the road without security). The room was very spacious and clean with toiletries by Rituals. We especially enjoyed dinner at the restaurant within the hotel (ro.bo); this is not part of the hotel operations and it is newly opened by the team behind the Michelin-starred Le Petit Leon. We highly recommend making a stop here as food, service and the wine list were impeccable. Would definitely stay here again.
