I loved this hotel!!! The room was beautiful and spacious. The restaurant was amazing! The courses were delightful, the cheeses were amazing and the wine was delicious. I would love to come back here again.

This was the perfect hotel for our stay near friends who recently moved to the area. The couple who run the hotel were terrific, helpful, personable, and efficient. We had dinner one evening at the hotel, and really enjoyed it. We especially appreciated the electric car charging point for our car. It worked seamlessly and the rate was very competitive using a credit card.

We stayed in cottage 308. It was very private and quiet. It's perfect for relaxing. The grounds are beautiful. This hotel is near the best restaurants in Briare. Great location.

Bruno de la Palme and his wife Marion were exceptional hosts. Bruno is extremely knowledgeable of local wines, local producers, and frankly general knowledge. His wine tours cannot be missed. Conversations were full of interesting facts and details, especially relating to wine. We were treated as if we were long lost friends staying at their home.

The staff was extremely concerned with our well being and have offered a very nice commercial gesture to compensate for the lack of hot water in our room. Our room faced the city of Gien and the view was really great. One just have to walk accross a bridge to reach the interesting sidewalk with restaurants on the other side of the Loire. I prefer that view (Castle of Anne de Beaujeu) from the one the hotels on the other side of the rriver would have. Highly recommended hotel.

Poor communication with the booking. No one was available when we arrived. After several calls we were given a room number with the key inside the room. The owners were not English speakers.
