Staff seemed a bit bemused when we arrived. There was an external training meeting taking place at the time and car parking was tricky. We knew that they only provided a snacking menu for dinner, which was pretty tasty, but rather limited. No bar but wine and beer was available with dinner. Post dinner coffee could not be had in dining room but had to be taken using machine in the room. Interesting lift!! Ceiling height in bedroom restrictive due to room being in roof. Bed very comfortable and a good night’s sleep was had. Overall a reasonable night’s stay.

We have stayed here before, and it is a lovely property. However, we stayed at 3 different hotels in this region, this summer, and this was the least best value for money, given the facilities. The pool is great, the gardens well maintained, and the communal areas are lovely. Also, the breakfast is very good (though is not included in room rates). This time, the room we stayed in was very small (in the eaves of the building - I hit my head a few times!) and there is no air conditioning. This made the small room at the top of the building almost unbearably hot. The staff did provide a fan but it provided limited relief. Hotels such as this should now consider air conditioning in rooms as standard, given rising temperates over recent summers.

A beautiful Château, would love to know more of it's history. It's a really lovely place to stay, very peaceful and easy to get to from the main road round Angers. A 10 minute taxi journey takes you to the heart of Angers with plenty of dining options. Breakfast was exceptionally good.

Really lovely place. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner a little basic but fine for one night. Wine list very small and not so good, could be improved. But the whole design, atmosphere and grounds are really nice. People are lovely.

Fascinating place and delicious breakfast

For a work trip I convinced 2 of my colleagues to stay here with me. The rooms were great, the bed comfortable, but the absolute best was the breakfast! If you stay there don't leave without having a delicious breakfast! It is also very close to the Center of Angers and a romantic, almost medieval road just south of the chateau takes you to the city along the river. Great experience!
