Once we got in it was very nice. Host very friendly and helpful. Private garden lovely - though unfortunately rainy weather prevented taking advantage. Very quiet. Very calm. Interesting artefacts to see in house. Spacious room with very comfortable bed. Good heating and good shower. Good recommendations for excellent nearby restaurant. Quality ingredients in breakfast - real fresh orange juice for example. Not for those who like something modern though.

Bit of a mix up on arrival - no one was there and no answer to doorbell. Put down by owner to a staffing issue and he made us a good gesture in recompense. Hopefully a one off but would suggest others send message to hotel in advance to notify arrival time to prevent similar issue.

Location is excellent, easy to find, and private car parking. Close to the centre of Douai and all the shops and restaurants. Breakfast was amazing, it was very fresh as most was bought that morning, and there was lots of choice. Rooms are beautiful, as is the house, they are very spacious and clean. Hosts are very welcoming

Struggled to connect on the wifi, but not really an issue with international roaming. Am sure we could have asked for assistance and found a solution but were out most of the time anyway.

Everything! A wonderful old property with beautiful period pieces. Very spacious and extremely clean. The bed was vast and the bathroom modern and well appointed. Breakfast was sumptuous and served at a grand table. Parking is easy and very safe plus it’s near to the town centre. Hosts are very friendly.

The building is incredible with lots of outdoor space and close to the town.Rooms are very large with lovely old furniture. What really made our stay was the exceptional service. Charles the manager was very informative and gave us lots of details about the history of the house as he showed us around,and had enormous enthusiasm. Breakfast was really good if a bit pricey. Can’t wait to go back again

A very enjoyable stay. this is a quirky hotel with the most comfortable beds. Really felt we had booked something special

Breakfast didn’t meet our expectations particularly the fruits served being past their best

Charming hotel with stylish rooms in an urban street where you would not expect such a wonderful place. Attractive “castle-feeling” with friendly hosts. Free parking in the garden.

Beautiful old chsteau with lots of history and furnished to a very high standard. A very warm welcome and good suggestions for restaurants etc.

Nothing

The breakfast a bit too sparse. No cheese or ham, just an egg and viennoisserie. The viennoiserie was excellent but we would have preferred something else as well, for that price.

The decor

It felt like a rented room not a hotel which is fine but we weren’t informed

A gem of a hotel with great character and authenticity
