    Unfortunately the hotel's restaurant was closed this week for holidays.

    Excellent location a few minutes walk from the city centre, but with ample adjacent parking owned by the hotel. Very helpful and friendly reception staff. Lovely room, spacious, modern decoration with a large covered balcony with table and chairs outside. Large walk-in shower in the bathroom and separate wc.

    Had dinner there. We each just ate a main course. The best I can say about the food is that it was edible. The food was lukewarm / cold, unseasoned and very basic. Such a pity. Waitress service delightful. Surroundings pleasant.

    Great location and decor. Very comfortable room. Good parking facility. Wonderful, kind, helpful staff. Adequate breakfast and very peaceful.

    The sat nav routing into the property was a little hairy though exit was far easier.

    It was comfortable and in a quiet location. Room was large and well equipped.

    Even though travelling with our dog, we were upgraded to an exceptionally luxurious room with view over the pool and garden. Very good city centre location and with an adjacent enclosed public park for exercising the dog. Staff were incredibly welcoming and accommodating. Food was excellent.

    Not enough wardrobe space for two people and no space to hang a dress.

    Very convenient for the town. Friendly, helpful staff and a large, well appointed room, with a huge, very comfortable bed. There was plenty of choice at breakfast. Loved the grounds and swimming pool.

    Dirty drawer under the coffee machine Lack of storage for ladies in our wardrobe Service on the 2nd and 3rd day wasn’t as good as the 1st day Pillows were very soft, for me

    The hotel is beautiful and quite unique. The bed/mattress was very comfortable and the black out curtains were great. The food in the restaurant was very nice and the 1st night the service was fantastic. The pool is perfect.

    Unfriendly and unhelpful staff at breakfast - had to work out for ourselves where to sit, what was available and how it all worked.

    Fabulous, spacious room. Lovely reception staff. Good location, not far from Angouleme centre.

    I thought the charge of 18 euro per person fir breakfast was expensive. There was not a wide choice

    The building from the outside is very beautiful and the gardens and outdoor terrace was gorgeous. Our room which was newly renovated was fabulous. Very spacious with a very comfortable bed . There was also a large balcony overlooking a very quiet street
