Contras: Se o quarto fosse 1 pouco maior

Prós: The location for us was good It was pet friendly which is what we need Receptionist was welcoming Had grass area for the dogs

Contras: There wasn't much really and what there was was nothing to do with the hotel itself We had ants in the room but the hotel came and sorted it We stayed for 2 nights the 2nd night there was someone urinating outside not far from our room not pleasant having to walk past them The hotel was in the right place for us and was pet friendly but the rooms are a little on the small side especially the bathrooms Wouldn't say it was family friendly it seemed a lot of workers stayed there The light in the room is very bright no side lamps

Prós: Clean

Contras: The room was dilapidated ... broken mirrors, broken dressing table/desk Extra single bed which was unasked for making getting into the double bed very awkward. Also hardly any walking space in the room because of the extra bed. No proper pillows, just cushions.

Prós: The breakfast was good

Contras: Bedroom

Prós: Confortable, big and clean bed. Bedside lamps. Good heating. Well placed in Saintes.

Contras: The bedroom was a bit small. We could hear the traffic on the road outside.

Prós: não usamos o pequeno almoço.

Prós: Okay place for a quick stop and cheap. Is very dated and in middle of industrial building - but easy to reach.Friendly owner and helpful with tips

Prós: due to coronavirus reception not open but staff opened up and booked me in and was helpful and gave me ground floor room rather than upper floor. No food available due to gov restrictions.

Contras: wifi reception didn't work in my room, but when I walked round with dog near reception was working

Prós: Estacionamento.

Contras: A limpeza. Carpete e cadeira sujas. Falta um elevador e as escadas são estreitas, para quem tem malas para quinze dias como eu, não fica fácil chegar ao quarto. Detestei o temporizador no duche a cada instante tinha de carregar para poder tomar banho. É incômodo.

Prós: Nothing. If we had not booked and paid we would have gone else where.

Contras: This place should not be open no hand sanitizer any where. And not clean inside. The manager was not interested at all he was a waste of time. We had to contact the booking agent to get access to room. Waited over one hour to get in because the manager could not tell us the room was open and the key was on the bed.

Prós: After a very long drive from southern Spain it was a joy to meet really helpful staff. They even insisted on chilling my bottle of wine after I asked them to open it.

Contras: No where to sit outside on a nice evening.

Prós: Never stayed in a motel before. Not much room. No breakfast. Otherwise ok.

Prós: Good arival process very helpful staff

Contras: Parking outside rooms noisy in early morning

Contras: Very basic and quite noisy at times. Room very small but clean.

Prós: Very handy location to break journey if travelling through France down towards the Pyrenees. Hotel just off the motorway. Very friendly and helpful owner. Good breakfast (6.50 E). Free secure parking. Hotel not expensive but rather basic; rooms are in small chalets. Can certainly recommend it for overnight stay. Rooms were small but clean.

Contras: Shower too basic.

Prós: Hotel is situated very close to city centre - some traffic noise but essentially a comfortable, reasonably priced hotel with efficient staff.

Prós: The location was very good.

Contras: The bathroom facilities were below what I expected. Being allocated 1 croissant for breakfast was not acceptable.

Prós: É um Hotel de beira de estrada, o que facilita para quem está em viagem e necessita de um Hotel para dormir e necessita economizar. Tive problema com meu carro logo pela manhã e o pessoal do Hotel foi muito atencioso comigo, ajudando na solução do problema.

Contras: O banheiro é do tipo cabine, tudo em plástico. O quarto é minúsculo. Se comparado com os custos de outros hóteis, a bem da verdade não tem um boa relação custo benefício, até mesmo se dividr preço da diária por metro quadrado do quarto.

Prós: The staff made my stay enjoyable as they were very helpful and always very curtious.

Contras:

Prós: The friendly,helpful, approach of the manager. the clean room

Contras:

Prós: Good location and friendly staff

Contras: No particular dislikes

Prós: Friendly and prompt attention from the persons in charge. Free internet availability is a plus.

Contras: A little bit far away from the center of the closest town.

Prós:

Contras: We thought this was too basic for us, it was like living in a garage. Would hate to stay there in winter! Won't choose a Balladins Express again.

Prós: close to the highway however in a quiet area. instead of having breakfirst there go into the other side of the road to the bakery

Contras: the hotel is a bit old. I've stayed in room 8 which is in the ground floor. it's a bit poor in terms of furniture and the bathroom is old.

Prós: It was right by the motorway so makes it easy for travel. The staff were very friendly and went out their way to help with anything requested.

Prós: A localização

Contras: Instalações degradadas

Contras: Visited during the coronavirus and as elsewhere service was limited

Prós: Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. The restaurant was modern and the food good. The buffet starters were particularly good.

Contras: The building was old and unkempt. The room was dull, miserable and outdated. It was very noisy. In particular the chair at the desk did not have any ferrels or protection on the legs. Consequently, every time the chair was moved in and out on the wooden floor, the noise was grating. We had a ground floor room and were disturbed until the early hours of the morning by the man upstairs, scraping the chair and talking on the phone. Breakfast was expensive.

Prós: Close to motorway rooms clean and functional

Contras: Making allowances for Coronavirus measures I think more effort could have been made to compensate. No outside seating, no drinks only soft drinks. Mediocre microwave takeaway meals. No information on other possible food sources. Told nothing open as national holiday when there was a hyper market close by which was open.

Prós: It suited our our purposes satisfactorily

Contras: As it was in lockdown because of Covid-19 at the time of our visit, it would be unfair to criticise it.

Prós: Room was lovely and cool with wind down blind. Motel style so you can park right outside your room. Friendly staff who speak English, French and Spanish. Breakfast was ok. Slept well. Stayed during covid de-escalation, and everything clean and careful.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Didn't stay long enough to judge, we chose it because there were rooms available for the date we had chosen

Contras:

Prós: Food in restaurant was good.

Contras: Location.

Prós: Easy to get to from motorway

Contras: Had asked for a cot not supplied. The advert for the hotel said there was a children's playground this did not exist. Room was tiny.

Prós: Visited La Rochelle, and Cognac

Contras: Price of room was dearer than booking price.

Prós: Nothing.

Contras: The room was supposed to sleep three plus a baby, but was tiny. The third bed pulled out from under one of the single beds and already contained an earwig! Once pulled out there was no room to pass to get to the bathroom and once the baby cot was up there was no free floor space at all. The light was hanging off the wall and the room was noisy. This was the most expensive of three hotels we stayed in and by far the worst.

Prós: Convenient to motorway and easy to find, clean and functional, a good hotel for an overnight.

Contras: Did not get the room type booked

Prós: Short stay in saintes, lovely city.

Contras: More basic than expected, stayed previously at Formula 1 next door and expected more for extra money.

Prós: Reasonable value and cater for pets

Contras: No non-smoking option

Prós: The staff was polite and came right away when we lost our electricity. The restaurant was good for a hotel of this class.

Contras:

Prós: A typical motel, great for a stopover, right by motorway. Clean, very helpful staff and tea/coffee making facilities. Excellent buffet for evening meal and good breakfast.

Contras:

Prós: A localização é boa para quem vai de viagem, para uma paragem rápida, fica muito pertinho da autoestrada. Limpo e cama confortável. Pequeno almoço razoável.

Contras: O parque do Hotel não tinha iluminação nenhuma, como chegamos já tarde à noite foi muito desagradável. Mesmo o próprio hotel não está bem sinalizado.

Prós: Free parking, quiet hotel, had a brilliant sleep and a refreshing powerful shower. Exactly what I wanted.

Contras: Room was a bit tight, good but small.

Prós: Well we arrived in time of crisis-in the virus pandemic so nothing to compare with usual situation. Hotel near motorway easy to find on routes to Spain from which we had just come heading for Brittany ports.Its an Ibis so you know what you will get and why you would chose one. In the circumstances everyone did the best they could so no complaints-good effort cheerfully delivered.The beds as per are SO comfortable!

Contras: Nothing that hotel staff or current science could resolve!!All well in service as far as they could provide it.

Prós: Food very good and times available perfect

Contras: Bed a little small but room was fine

Prós: The room was comfortable and a reasonable size. Dinner was tasty and well prepared.

Contras: The room heater was noisy when it was running (even though in low fan mode) and it had to be left on because of the cold weather. Throughout the night it switched on and off. Luckily I was so tired I only woke a couple of times. Breakfast was adequate but not as much selection as in other motels of the same calibre. The shower towel was on the small side and thin - only just adequate to get dry.

Prós: The hotel was clean.

Contras: The room was to small, the bed mattresses moved to easy. Poor value for the money.

Prós: Very close to A10 and appears to be secure parking.

Contras: Staff quite rude, having to wait until they were finished smoking until being served.

Prós: Nothing

Contras: Rude, dirty, hairs on the food

Prós: We love it here but we’re sorry that after being told not to come to France It’s a shame the reservation could not be moved for us until later in the year when hopefully things have settled down.

Prós: If you're prepared to look beyond the immediate appearance, it would be churlish to complain, given the price you pay. The room, although small, was warm and clean and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom too was tiny, but again, the shower was hot and we had decent towels. Breakfast perfectly acceptable. We would really love to know what has happened to this Kyriad Hotel. It has so much potential, with loads of indoor and outside space and a decent swimming pool. But it has obviously failed to update which seems a shame. Bunnies running about on the hill an added bonus!!!

Contras: On arrival the outside looked a bit tired but we expected that from previous reviews.

Prós: Location was ok

Contras: No restaurant service and no bar service. They should have opened as guests were hungry after a long day travelling. The hotel I stayed at in Spain the previous night looked after their guests properly without putting them at risk of the corona virus. Just to make things worse, I was charged 10 Euro because I had my dog with me - far too much to charge in my opinion.

Prós: The beds were comfy and they waited for us to arrive as it was late, so very greatful for that.

Contras: Room was cold, kettle in one room not working, and showers were very cold, and barely heated, and not efficient. Need shower doors as room got very wet. We had to leave very early, and had no idea where to leave room cards. Had to call a few hours later to let them know we had left as we physically could not check out.

Contras: Dirty and dark toilet. Personel speaking only French.

Prós: The room was comfortable and clean.

Contras: The toilet and shower small. The outside area was not kept neat and tidy, it did not give a good impression. It made the hotel look dirty and run down.

Prós: We slept

Contras: Tiny room even smaller ensuite, mattress collapsed on side. Reception and bar and therefore dining area smelt of smoking so eat elsewhere despite having a restaurant being the reason we chose it. Charge fo our dog was a bit steep considering the quality of the place. Won't return.

Contras: I always have slow check- in which after a long drive is very annoying

Prós: Tudooo e o atendimento em geral ..

Contras: Tudo otimo e perfeito ..

Prós: Easy to find, rooms adequate for over night stay. We had small dog so verandas were great for taking her out

Contras: Rest. not open even though hotel was full. Normally very good on weekdays. The only reason to stay there.

Prós: A very clean and welcoming hotel. The evening meal was well cooked and the service excellent.

Contras: We did have some problems finding the hotel as the signs seemed to stop and then we eventually found it by driving round. PS we do not use SatNav.

Prós: Friendly and helpful staff. Easy to get into Saintes by car. Fresh oranges to squeeze for juice at breakfast.

Contras: Not easy to find if you don't approach from a10. Motel type hotel might not suit everyone. Tiny shower room, very dark wall tiles made it feel even smaller. No wifi in room, but could pick up in common areas.

Prós: Security of vehicles, access to outside space from room as traveling with our dog

Contras: The restaurants last orders were 9pm and as we had difficulty locating the hotel arrived late and were unable to eat. Thank goodness for McDonalds

Prós: friendly helpfull staff

Contras:

Prós: Just great

Contras: The staff where very good

Prós: Good room all clean good value

Contras: Nada a referir.

Prós: Breakfast fair as was location.

Prós: Recepção e pequenos almoços.

Contras: A casa de de banho não estava bem limpa. Tinha pó acumulado nos cantos das paredes.

Prós: O conforto depois de uma viagem grande. E limpeza 5☆.

Prós: Um bom hotel , num conceito familiar

Contras: Não tenho nada a apontar

Prós: Wheelchair access good, both room & bathroom,parking good. Nice to have tea/coffee making facilities.

Contras: Needs an extra rail by toilet.

Prós: All safety measures taken during COVID-19 times. The staff was very nice and professional. Good location if you just want to stay the night during a long trip.

Contras: A fridge in the room would be nice, at least to cool down my drinks.

Prós: Room was well equipped

Contras: Restaurant was not open except for breakfast

Prós: Walking distance to Main tourist precinct. Free Parking & Free Wi Fi internet

Prós: Internet provision and the TV area in the reception was very useful. Very friendly,helpful staff. The room was refreshed daily to a high standard. Did not expect to find hairdrier or tea/coffee making facilities - this was not stated on the website - nice surprise

Contras: No

Prós: Basic hotel set in a zone with businesses, other similar hotels etc - ideal location and price for overnight stay whilst visiting Saintes, Cognac or various chateaux in the area. Hotel is 10k from Saintes so not practical to walk especially at night. There are a coule of restaurants close by the hotel but good choice if you drive into Saintes - we did not have a problem parking but imagine in July/August parking could be a problem in Saintes. Hotel has large, free car park, basic rooms, only one medium sized towel per person, but clean and with small t.v. Bathroom clean and adequate. Hotel breakfast very good value. Definitely a one or two night maximum stay hotel - area convenient but unattractive.

Contras: Would have been good to have more than one towel per person in the bathroom.

Prós: We found the staff friendly and helpful and there was a good continental breakfast ready for us early in the morning

Prós: Um Hall de entrada muito agradável e raro em hoteis com menos de 3 estrelas

Prós: This hotel was a good value for the money. The room was clean and comfortable.

Contras: The hotel was surprisingly far from the city center of Saintes. From other reviews we thought it would be walking distance, but it was at least a few km!! We ended up driving in, but would have preffered a hotel closer to the restaurants, etc.

Prós: The Manager and staff at this hotel were absolutely fantastic. They could not have been more helpful and even though it was only an overnight stay made us feel really welcome. This is not a luxury hotel and does not pretend to be, but it has all the facilities needed for a short stay. It is not very easy to find as the signs are really small guiding you towards it, but is worth it when you get there. We would absolutely recommend it.

Contras:

Prós: The hotel was near to Saintes, but in a very quiet location, so it was much more peacful than hotels in the centre of the town

Contras:

Prós: Very good breakfast, clean and bright rooms. The family room we had was huge ( 2 adults 2 boys aged 14 and 11)

Contras:

Contras: Pillow could be more comfortable

Prós: the location was perfect, the room was clean and comfortable and the atmosphere very friendly

Contras: my room was on the 1st floor, the shower was on the ground floor -would have been ok for 1/2 nights but not for 5

Prós: Enjoyed my stay and was well looked after by the owner, couldn't have been more helpful with ideas for things to do, train times etc. Breakfast was very good and I enjoyed sitting in the lovely garden

Contras: Good value for the price - no complaints

Prós: Easy to find, friendly owner, very good shower

Contras: noisy plumbing, only one toilet and shower for nine bedrooms but didn't have to wait for the facilities whilst I was there. The car parking requires the host to let you in and out; didn't like to bother her to be honest so parked in the street.

Prós: Very basic accommodation with simple rooms that include private washing basin and bidet, but shared toilet. However, it has great value for money and very nice hostess!

Prós: Fantastic shower

Contras: Rather small bed... no tea/coffee making facilities in the room. Pleasant

Prós: Pleasant little hotel near railway station also very close to ‘Centre Historic’ which was very beautiful. Hotel would benefit from better quality pillows & a laptop charging point at desktop height !

Prós: Facil de encontrar. Pareja encantadora. Helpful. Secure parking for car and bicycle Great for a short stay. Good breakfast

Contras: Our corner oom overlooked the train station so you could hear the trains a bit

Prós: Great welcome from the receptionist. She was very helpful and enthusiastic about Saintes: where to visit, recommendations on where to eat. Small but adequate bedroom and en-suite. Right near the station with free partying at the weekend and very quiet. No air-con but fan in room which helped to keep us cool. Breakfast at €8.50 was very good value: hot drinks, juice, croissant, bread, cheese, jam, honey, yogurt, cake.... I hope I haven’t forgotten anything! Saintes is a fantastic place with an amazing Roman amphitheatre and lots of bars and restaurants in the medieval part of the city. Great place to stay on the way back to Cherbourg.

Contras: Nothing

Contras: No tea or coffe facilities either in the room or in the hotel in the evening.

Prós: We stayed in this hotel for one night on our way down to the south of France. It is located in the old city with many resturants close by. Easy access from the motorway. Will stay there again.

Prós: Communication and flexibility

Contras: Nothing

Prós: The rooms are better than 5* Hotels. Owner was very gracious, offered to cook a 3 course meal (which was amazing) Excellent value considering it must be the most luxurious b&b in the world.

Contras: How could anyone fail to like Maison Schuler and Manfred.

Prós: Managed to fit us in at short notice and owner opened the kitchen for us and made us a great meal

Contras: Gates closed until 8 so couldn’t walk my dog apart from the grounds, but the car was secure!

Prós: Good location close ti the highway. Convenient for people with a dog

Prós: a very good meal (pre-booked) in the evening

Contras: difficult to find

Prós: The location of the property is well situated. The stone structure has a charming and romantic exterior. The leek soup was delicious. The owner was very welcoming and cares for his guests.

Contras: We stayed in a family room off of a multi-purpose storage area. Although clean and comfortable our room lacked the charm of the main house with stone walls and wood beams.

Prós: Lovely place. Manfred cooked us a delightful meal. Well come again if we’re down that way.

Contras: Just a little far out of Saintes.

Prós: We enjoyed dinner on the evening of our one night stay which was SUPERB. The owner had worked as a chef! The property was clean and tidy and on the edge of a small rural village. Quiet, which was what we wanted and a convenient place to break our journey. Charming hosts.

Prós: Hosts very pleasant and accommodating. Food exceptional, easy parking just 50Metres away and very cheap. 5mins walk over bridge to centre.

Contras: N/A

Prós: Room was clean and quiet. Breakfast was excellent and copious (orange juice, freshly backed bread, butter, jam, croissants ...). Option for continental breakfast was also proposed. Excellent location.

Prós: Very good location for visiting the main attractions of Saintes, just a short walk. The hotel is in front of a Roman Arch. The room was big enough, with very handy space to store clothes and luggage and two plugs next to the bed, on each side. The bathroom was very clean. Next to the hotel there is a good and safe parking which costs around 7 euros per day.

Contras: Nothing really to complain about. Just to mention something, there is no breakfast on Sunday, but I did not find this a problem.

Prós: In the town centre and alongside the Charente, with lovely riverside walks. A secure car park is close by and convenient. Food was good and service was fast. breakfast was extra but well worth the 10 euros per head.

Contras: Having stayed here before, we were aware of the traffic noise on this busy junction, and asked for a quiet room. There is no lift and we found the stairs a bit steep for us.

Prós: Friendly and helpful proprietor and staff. Nearby secure parking.convenient for old town. Lovely walks along river, especially appreciated by my dog!

Prós: Great Value

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Cosy friendly nice food great location

Prós: The staff were great and the location perfect. The breakfast was very satisfying.

Contras: Unfortunately the bathroom constantly was smelly

Prós: Great place, totally renovated, wonderful welcome from the owner. Bar and restaurant are part of the establishment. Fabulous location, close to the center of Saintes, great view of the cathedral and river.

Prós: The staff were excellent, the two rooms placed next to each other and away from other guests, the beds were super comfortable, the breakfast was good, the free parking around the corner was a real bonus, and the location in Saintes was perfect for exploring the city centre and the amphitheatre at the other end of the city. We really loved staying here and would stay here again as well as recommending others to too.

Contras: The lift was a little dodgy and only worked sometimes - inconvenient with 5 children under 10 and a pregnant wife. Still it worked when we really needed it which was on arrival with all our bags and on departure with all our bags too. Minor point: the coffee in the room was *yuk* - please think about getting coffee bags; they're so good and it's such a better experience to have access to ground coffee.

Prós: We had a balcony room and sat outside with an early morning coffee (had to buy from outside the hotel) in comfy chairs with an excellent view of the avenues leading from the hotel. The hotel was situated approximately quarter of a mile from the main part of town but was easy to walk to.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Fui muito bem recebida .

Contras: Nao hay taxis .

Prós: the bed is very comfortable, me and my daughter only stay at here one night, but its position is good to find restaurant to have dinner.

Prós: Localização

Contras: Anúncio de estacionamento no site, contudo o mesmo não é disponibilizado. Muita dificuldade e longo tempo para arrumar um estacionamento nas circunvizinhanças. O site Booking.com deveria melhor atentar para esse problema, que muito fera transtorno para seus clientes.

Contras: Price is a bit pushy

Prós: Staff very friendly and welcoming. Ideal central location in Saintes. We were given, at no extra cost, a room with a spacious enclosed balcony with a fine view of the town centre- turning our room into a spacious suite effectively. Overall the hotel was unbelievably good value.

Contras: Tea/coffee facilities in room would have allowed us to fully enjoy the balcony with a view.

Prós: cleanliness and very quiet despite being on a main roundabout

Contras:

Prós: The concierges were very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and quiet despite being in the middle of a big city. The continental breakfast was very good.

Contras: The shower, as in a lot of hotels we have used, was hand held, and as we shower more than bath a bit inconvenient

Prós: It was very convenient for the town I was visiting with my brother. It was also convenient for travelling around the area due to it's closeness to the motorway. The cleanliness of the hotel was very impressive - everything was spotless and looked new.

Contras: A car park would have been useful but there was a free town carpark just down the road.

Prós: The owner/staff were extremely friendly and helpful, going so far as to personally drive us to the train station on our last day. Language was only a slight problem, and the hotel is situated 1/2 block from the Tourist Information office. I recommend this hotel very highly!

Prós: I would classify this hotel as a roadside stopover. As such itis very convenient if you do not wish to go into a town.

Contras: Very isolated with nothing within walking distance. The restaurant served a very good meal but I felt it was overpriced by about 20%

Prós: Good location

Contras: Large spider in the room!

Prós: The fact that there was a restaurant nearby.

Contras: The fact that the shower had to be held by hand to be used as there wasn't anywhere to hook it and the bed was very small. The Bar didn't even open for guests.

Prós: We used the hotel as a 1 night stopover and it was excellent for this. The room decor is dated and the family room we had was very cramped

Prós: helpful staff

Contras: located too far out of town

Prós: Friendly staff and excellent breakfast.

Contras:

Prós: Easy to find. Clean room. Good breakfast.

Contras: No non smoking room.

Prós: Situated just outside the main centre of Saintes on main link road to the town. Pleasant staff. Room was comfortable and set in separate accommodation wing from reception area. Good breakfast. La Boucherie restaurant next door for those not wanting to drive in to Saintes to eat out. Good value.

Contras:

Prós: The maneger was exceptionally helpful.

Prós: Unusual food

Contras: Water set up in the bathroom

Prós: The location is good, breakfast and restaurant meals are also very good with lots of tasty home made foods available, the staff are pleasant very accommodating. The restaurant was very reasonably priced. The quirky rooms do have a certain appeal.

Contras: The room provided was not the one shown during the original booking, it was smaller than expected without a proper bath, neither was a suitable alternative room available.

Prós: Beautiful location. Nice rooms with a very different touch. Excellent food.

Prós: Great restaurant, brillant stopover for people travelling with dogs, great garden and location close to motorway

Contras: Hot water in bedroom in evening

Prós: Quirky movement through time in design trends over the past seventy years.

Contras: Wall paper will soon be collectable

Prós: The location, gardens and restaurant are excellent. The staff very friendly, welcoming and helpful.

Contras: Although wifi was advertised it was not available in our room. We would have liked tea/coffee in the bedroom. The shower in the bath was inadequate.

Prós: We loved the room. Have stayed several times at the hotel and love the different themes. The outlook at breakfast and dinner is superb. The two male restaurant waiters were helpful and considerate always.

Contras: We didn't like that there were no hand-holds for the shower. We didnot have breakfast, only coffee, but we were charged for it which we thought was a bit mean.

Prós: Beautiful hotel in gorgeous surroundings. Very welcoming staff.

Prós: The ambiance, the swimming pool, the gardens and the food

Contras: Breakfast was expensive at €19 each

Prós: loved the extensive gardens and wildlife in ponds in garden,this was on view from the plush dining room, and the free apples from apple trees. Also liked the food,the bistro menu was very good and reasonable for the quality of the food.

Contras: utterly disliked the themed bedroom blue& white with all walls covered in white painted weathered wood complete with woodworm holes and anything they could drag in from the garden, old plumbing and a terrible en suite,saved only by the lovely private patio area right outside your door.

Prós: A excellente comida, os grandes jardims

Prós: Excellent food, wonderful gardens

Contras:

Prós: The garden area.

Contras: The room was by no means worth what we paid for it. There was only one small bottle of bath gel and one small bar of soap. Diners were segregated according to which menu they chose.

Prós: Helpful and friendly staff and nice location. The map on the booking website was wrong but one telephone call to the hotel , which they answered instantly - no answering machines etc- and we were easily able to find our way. The food was excellent and good value. Very nice room.

Contras: The price of the wine!! Tea and coffee making facilities would have been good.

Prós: Restfull atmosphere - good food

Contras:

Prós: Scenery was nice

Contras: The food was not good. We could have very easily been locked out of the hotel for the evening. It was difficult to find.

Prós: O funcionario era eficaz mas notoriamente sobrecarregado c tarefas...

Contras: Apenas um funcionario na chegada e ninguem estava na receção.

Prós: The bed was clean

Contras: Don't book this hotel unless you can speak French reception was not open until 7.30pm. A phone number on the door to call however the gentleman didn't speak English!!!!! Really didn't want to be outside the hotel after a long drive. Tried contacting booking.com but was left waiting on the phone for 15min Room small and very hot and very noisy .Obviously couldn't access reception nobody there. Man arrived after 7pm took our money then left

Prós: We stayed for three nights and enjoyed the balcony, the area with good access to food shops, the proximity to the historical centre.

Contras: Although we stayed for three nights the one staff member that we saw infrequently was most non-communicative, even at check-in, seeming too busy and disinterested. Our room had peeling wallpaper and a multi-stained and unvacuumed carpet even after we requested room cleaning. The shower area had black mould.

Contras: A very reasonably priced pet friendly hotel in a great location with private parking. Saintes is a beautiful city with many places of interest near by

Prós: Short walk from key historic sites, shops and restaurants. Free on-site parking.

Contras: Reception not open 24 hours so tricky to find staff if not pre-booked.

Prós: An older hotel, value foe money facilities. Effort had been put into the decoration and bathroom. The owners tried hard to see that we were well looked after off-season.

Prós: I am not sure if I liked better the quiet location of the place, the beauty of the vegetation, the attention to details or the hospitality. A great getaway: close to the coast and many lovely places to visit, but far away from the noise and visual pollution of a tourist location. Might be that the breakfast was my favorite part: all home made and delicious.

Prós: Lots of very nice touches. As soon as we arrived some fresh cold lemon water water was brought to our room as well as a vase with some flowers from the garden. The outdoor breakfast was amazing with homemade yoghurt, fresh breads, various homemade jams, pancakes, home made "nutella", some cheese, juice, and coffee/tea. Nice spacious grounds with chairs to sit outside. Excellent restaurant recommendation in the closest town (about 10-15 minute drive). Great place to stay en-route, or for a longer stay and use it as a base for biking or cycling. The host was extremely nice and helpful. They live on the same property but in a separate building so the rooms are very private. A large communal area with a kitchen available to use for those who want it. Wifi worked very well with a plug in device we could borrow. The property is in a rural and very quiet area. The stars at night were amazing!

Contras: This was really very nice, so no negatives. The only thing to note is that this is in a very rural area, so bring a book and enjoy!

Prós: A recepção foi excelente. A interação muito facil e as informaçoes foram uma grande ajuda.

Prós: The room was very spacious and clean. I was warmly welcomed by the owners and gave good advice when asked. The breakfast was very good and attention was paid to small details, what makes it special!
