“Room with a View”

We were met at reception by a charming receptionist, who upgraded us to The Bishop’s Suite. The suite consisted of a huge bedroom with the biggest double bed I’ve ever seen.

We were met at reception by a charming receptionist, who upgraded us to The Bishop’s Suite. The suite consisted of a huge bedroom with the biggest double bed I’ve ever seen. A secret door led into a big walk in wardrobe. We also had a big bathroom with double sinks, and a separate wc. The bedroom had 3 floor to ceiling height windows with a first floor view of the grounds, and the town church in the distance. In the evening we had drinks on the terrace, followed by dinner in the hotel restaurant. My vegetarian meal was delicious and beautifully presented, whilst my husband enjoyed a perfectly cooked steak. Breakfast was buffet style with a big range of choice. The spa looked fantastic but our travelling schedule meant we had to get back on the road. We will definitely be back though and will try the spa then. The car park is also an essential part of our hotel checklist, and the parking here was perfect; right by the hotel, private, secure and plenty of spaces and some shade provided by the avenue of trees.

This is our second stay while visiting friends in Briare. This time instead of a Cottage, we reserved a room in the main building to improve our experience. Room No.1 is next to the reception with easy access to the restaurant and swimming pool. The amenities go in hand with a 4 * hotel. The service did not, and neither maintenance. The facilities are fairly modern, but we had a plumbing problem that did not get attention. The Spa services are offered in an open shack in the gardens, behind the building. The Therapists were very good. This stay we were not able to dine at the restaurant. The buffet breakfast was very good and caters to international guests. The beautiful surrounding gardens and the proximity to the town center makes this property a good choice.

“Great restaurant but tired room”

Food was superb and staff friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the cottage we stayed in was very “tired” and dated. The shower was an attachment to the bath taps without even a fixing to hold the shower head to the wall. O the plus side you park directly outside and it was quiet. Would go back for… lisää

Food was superb and staff friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the cottage we stayed in was very “tired” and dated. The shower was an attachment to the bath taps without even a fixing to hold the shower head to the wall. O the plus side you park directly outside and it was quiet. Would go back for the restaurant, but probably stay somewhere else overnight unless the rooms have been fully refurbished and brought into the 21st century.
