The historic chateau at its heart

Hotel/castle needs a little maintenance, it is so beautiful but looks a bit old/sad.

Nice quiet place to stay, Nice park around the hotel. The lady that did the check in is very friendly. Later that night when we wanted to order a drink every was to busy And not friendly. But we had a very Nice stay overall. Happy that our dogs could come with us.

In the sleeping rooms unfortunately the internet was rather slow or non-existent which was a bit inconvenient if travelling for business. But that was the only negative thing I can think of.

The breakfast was quite good although I missed some French cheese. The staff is the best, really friendly and supportive Good evening restaurant. Very quiet and tranquil place. Overall I would go back again if to stay in that area.

The fact that the restaurant was shut so we walked to the village which was also shut except a takeaway pizza and a kebab house .

Interesting stop over , the accommodation was in an annex , not very chateau like ,but comfy , clean and nicely decorated . Unfortunately the actual chateau part with restaurant , bar and other facilities were shut Sunday and Monday

Great to be able to visit another village & surroundings. Dinner restaurant options worth visiting. Food fresh & reflects local cuisine. Highly recommended.

Immaculate rooms located at the side of the chateau & the bed was so comfy. Beautiful surroundings & quiet to rest . Dining option offered but fancied a stroll into the village for a beer & pizza. Booked breakfast 9euro each . Hot fresh pastries , fruit , yoghurts , cereal & unlimited choice of coffees. It’s an hidden gem & totally worth the money . Pristine white bedding , towels & air con.

Very bad breakfast (reheated yesterday’s pastries for breakfast), very bad wifi, absent staff.

Personal didn't speak English at all. So we wear translating with google. Just a guy in the restaurant, he was really nice and could speak English. We ordered breakfast, and because of poor English, we didn't ask on which time. They are really late with breakfast it starts at 8.30. So if you want to leave early don't order breakfast. Breakfast was really, really poor. It kost 9euro p.p. but there were no plates, no glas, no spoon or fork. There were even no croissants. Just bread with Nutella and jam. Disappointed 😞

Rooms are really nice and clean. Matras comfortable.

We felt our arrival and stay was an inconvenience. Reception was unmanned and we searched everywhere until we found a staff in the kitchen who reluctantly diverted from their work and assisted us. Similarly, check out was unmanned. To summarise, no one said hello and welcome, and no one said good bye and thank you, I hope you enjoyed your stay. The room lights were broken and didn’t turn on and we couldn’t connect to the Wi-Fi. The restaurant was closed and there are very limited options in the town with small pizza take aways. We tried to contact before our arrival about checking in and dining options but the only reply was to advise that the restaurant was closed.

Pretty building in green space. The room was clean and comfortable.

The place was wonderful and lovely discovery!

This is a former chateau that seems to be owned by the municipality although operated through another party. When we arrived; at the appointed period already acknowledged within the confirmation-messaging; the place was a Marie-Celeste; doors locked everywhere with no-one about and no explanation or contact# etc. Eventually after considerable time and effort we managed to reach someone through contact details in our Booking.com information but this was fraught as English was not spoken (contrary to criteria stated for the place). Later that afternoon a skeleton set of staff arrived and we could proceed. These staff are trying to do well but the whole setup seems to be close to the bottom of marketable performance, so it is probably best to hope that things get better once more clientele are achieved. Currently it is was a ghost-town experience with only us and one other couple there (they abandoned their dinner table after struggling with inadequate service for half an hour). To be fair though, the staff themselves were not impolite to us and we had good dinner in that restaurant.

Rooms are situated in some separate accommodation blocks adjacent to the original chateau. These have the advantage of modern reliable equipment and everything was recent-build and clean. We appreciated the integral air-conditioning hardware, which worked well through the hot weather.

The booking suggest you are staying in the chateau but in fact you are in very incongruous rooms bit like a formula one room. Zero character

Breakfast was ok. Self service. Simple. Nothing to shout about. Coffee and hot water from machine.

Nothing, our stay was great.

Our stay at the Chateau du Petit Bois exceeded out expectations. The place is simply wonderful. Located in the picturesque Cosne-d'Alier, it offers a quiet and peaceful atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy the quiet countryside, as well as some excellent french food. The grounds are well kept and the staff is very kind and helpful. We only stayed for one night but would love to stay again. We also recommend the dinner if you like french cuisine.

Both dinner and breakfast were mediocre
