Excellent service, no lake view

Service was excellent. We had anticipated a lake view but most of the hotels lake view is blocked by a public indoor pool structure so that was disappointing. Beds were very comfortable and everything was clean.

Stop off

I have stayed at this hotel a number of times, stopping off on the way back from Spain. The last few times I have noticed that the hotel has got scruffier and run down each time, I'm not staying again, it's not like it's cheap at €64 and does no deserve 3 stars. Needs some money spent on it.

Overnight stay

Okay for overnight stay although having passed other Kyriad hotels all over France, this one seemed a little dated in the rooms and bathrooms. Tex-mex next door was okay for evening meal. Vey good breakfast in hotel where some refurbishment has obviously taken place.

Overnight stay

We stayed overnight on route to Spain , and would say that that is all I would use it for. It was quiet and well placed for restaurants, but it is quite shabby and in need of some money spent, as at the moment it is more like 2 star than 3. Rooms are quite small and breakfast very expensive at nearly 10€
