Beautiful hotel chateau,
Excellent facilities and great dining at sensible prices.
Jerry the sommelier gave a great wine tasting and was a star in our stay.
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour avec un accueil très chaleureux et très prévenant.
Chambre impeccable, literie au top. La piscine très agréable après une journée de balade.
Nous recommandons vivement !
De passage dans le Morvan nous voulions absolument dormir au Vieux Morvan, cette institution historique. Nous n'avons pas été déçus. La vue de la chambre 15 (celle de l'ancien président Mitterrand, qui se réserve a la demande) sur les monts du Morvan est superbe. La pièce est fonctionnelle. Réservez au restaurant en demandant une table avec vue. On y mange très bien. Tout le personnel est très gentil, à l'hôtel comme au restaurant.
Good bedding, limited toilet space, historic carpet, pool closed by the owner at 6:45 PM..!!
Disappointing value for money.
In one word: outdated.
Literie confortable, espace toilettes rikiki, moquette historique
Piscine fermée par le patron à 18H45
En 1 mot : vieillot
… l’esprit de François s’en est allé ;-)
Rien à dire en ce qui concerne les lieux et la chambre
En revanche, très déçu de l'accueil, de la gestion et des frais supplémentaires.
On m a demandé de partir de la chambre à 11h, alors que j'étais en RDV téléphonique. L'hôtel stipule pourtant bien départ à 12H !!!
N'ayant pas de machine à café dans la chambre, ni même de stick soluble, j'ai eu le malheur de demander un café à la "machine" en bas. On m'a empressé de me le facturer 4€ ! On est sur un prix excessif ... avec un gout d'eau.
Expérience dommage en ce qui me concerne, en espérant que d'autres en aient une meilleure !
Un bon accueil, chambre qui respire la propreté. Nous avons également dîner. Repas excellent par un service très attentif à notre bien être.
Nous recommandons vivement cet établissement. Seul bémol…pas d’ascenseur.
Ouderwets maar schoon
Geen lift, terwijl het lopen met bagage over het trappenhuis een grote opgave is.
Restaurant karig qua kaart maar kwaliteit boven verwachting. Ontbijt sober. Parkeren matig. Kamer gewisseld vanwege onvoldoende hoogte en weinig daglichttoetteding.
Pas de bar ni de restaurant. Équipement existant mais fermes tres surprenant en pleine saison touristique. Petite piscine non chauffée accès difficile voire impossible si handicapés ou se déplaçant mal. Insonorisation inexistante on entend tout ce qui se passe dans les autres chambres. Déjeuner 12€ trop ch r par rapport à ce qui est proposé. Sinon Hotel,propre bonne literie. Accueil souriant (la personne s.occupe de tout reception, petit déjeuner etc)

Dommage hôtel confortable mais service a revoir
Nous sommes arrivé le soir fatigué de nos 8h de route dans une chambre avec une odeur d’égout nauséabonde.
Malgré avoir aéré la chambre pendant plus de deux heures et fait constaté au personnel, aucune alternative nous a été proposé. Nous avons du passé la nuit dans cette chambre. Le matin nouveau souhaité voir un responsable malheureusement il n était pas là , nous avons donc laissé notre numéro de Téléphone téléphone en espérant qu’il nous contact . A ce jour aucun appel c’est une honte pour un établissement de ce type... Stéphane
Accès au second étage par escalier très étroit et sans rampe. Mauvais état général des communs y compris du mobilier. Très peu de rangement dans la chambre. Pare-douche inopérant d'où inondation de la salle de bain. Baignoire haute et glissante. Coffre inaccessible malgré réclamations. Petit déjeuner pas toujours approvisionné. RIEN À VOIR AVEC UN TROIS ÉTOILES.
