We had a great time at this property. It is a lovely old building with beautiful inner courtyards and an excellent restaurant. There is an outdoor pool which my husband took advantage of and the hotel is located next to a spa. Unfortunately the spa is closed at the moment for renovations with no date given for reopening. The bedroom was well decorated and the bed extremely comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Bourbon L’Archambault is an interesting historical town and well worth a visit. We would gladly return to this hotel for further explorations.

Pleasant stay in Bourbon l'Archambault
Very good experience, The standard room was a mini suite with kitchenette. The outside pool is not very big but very pleasant with a great view.

Beautiful luxury hotel. Excellent restaurant.
The hotel is beautifully presented and clean! Dinner in the restaurant was exceptional!! Breakfast is available at extra cost but recommended as it was really good! Some of the staff spoke English but it helps if you are prepared to speak a little French! Our dog was welcome and they were pleased to see her!! We would have liked coffee facilities in our room.

The hotel is an old stone built building dating back several hundred years. There is a good town walk, map from local TI, which has fantastic views of the town and its castle

Beautiful hotel with enormous rooms
Situated on the square in a small friendly town with historic connections to the Bourbons. We were extremely well looked after during our stay. The evening menu was excellent quality and good value too. The lovely terrasse & pool provided great relaxation.

What a pleasure to stay in such a wonderful individual hotel. It has it's own charm, is beautifully decorated and has an extremely calm, relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant is fabulous and the food very generous, expertly cooked, local to the area and seasonal.

Delicious food and very good service!
My husband and I used this hotel as an overnight stay on the way to Calais, it was a better alternative than our usual overnight stays in motorway hotels! The town was difficult to get in and out of because of the numerous one way road and lacked effective signposts. The hotel, although beautiful and quite pretty on the outside has a rather faded grandeur feeling inside. Our room was in an annex and was clean and tidy and the decor was rather old fashioned. We had dinner in the restaurant which was absolutely delicious and was traditional french style, the service was excellent and the waitresses were lovely.

Problem was that we thought the lace was within walking distance of the town, it wasnt! The pool spa didnt open until 0900H, far to late for a swim and sauna before breakfast, 0730 would have been a better time. Breakfast was an expensive extra, and wine at the table (considering it is France) was also expensive, even house wines. Two errors in the check out account, being charged for things we had not had too. In general hotel was clean and functioned reasonable well other than the observations above.

Equipe de l'hôtel professionnelle et efficace. Hôtel confortable et bien situé.

Où sont les 4 étoiles? Expérience pénible @rewards
Joli hôtel avec un excellent restaurant, mais avec de nombreuses lacunes et problèmes (wifi ne fonctionne pas, coffre-fort sans serrure/fermeture (!), service en chambre pas complet: plus de kleenex, balais de toilette momifié de pq, rideaux décrochés, ...), douche de piscine ne fonctionne pas, etc.). Le pire a été l'attitude très déplacée concernant les nuits gratuites/rewards dont nous bénéficions pour 1 nuit: selon la reception, cela était "totalement impossible que le séjour soit deja réglé" et même en présentant la copie de la facture, on nous repond de manière agressive et en ricanant que c'est impossible et qu'il faut régler et appeler nous-mêmes Expedia! Inadmissible! Nous avons presque dû appeler la police ! Personnel du restaurant adorable. Très difficile de comprendre que cet hôtel dispose de 4 étoiles !
