Nothing, or it must be that the beds were a bit on the hard side, but that is very personal

Apart from an exceptional stay in this beautiful hotel (and this was our second visit - see previous review) we were able to have a private dinner, which is usually only offered when there is a booking of at approx. 12 people. We were very lucky that there was a birthday party on the evening of 11th May and that made it possible to have an outstanding dinner experience with a great garden view (and the weather was nice as well). We will definitely be back to visit this hotel again. Great experience. Great old mansion house with outstanding interior design.

The hotel is a very nice old mansion house with a large garden. The interior design is absolutely exceptional. The garden is outstanding and very quiet. The breakfast was great and overall the stay was the best we have had in a long time in a hotel. Philippe was a very nice host who made our stay memorable and we will definitely come back as soon as possible. PS: There is a tram station right next to the hotel which made it very easy to visit the city center of Valenciennes.

Perfect host, Philippe. Very welcoming, friendly, helpful, fluent English to go with his natural French. The artwork all over the hotel is both eclectic and wonderful. Delightful gardens. Dinner wasn't available, but based on the exceptional breakfast, I'm sure dinner would be equally good. Room was very spacious & comfortable.

Nothing springs to mind, particularly. We did have a drunk follow us through the parking gate, and it took me a few minutes to get rid of him. So we took special care to ensure the gate was closed before we walked away each time thereafter. Not a "didn't like", just a personal learning point for when we return.

Breakfast was very good (French style) and the host sugested a wide range of extras. The parking was very secure behind locked gates. Decoration was eclectic and reflected the host's calling as an artist and interior designer. Room was large, beautifully furnished, and had a pleasant view of the garden. Cost was very reasonable (about the same as dinner for two in the town!) Tram stop right outside the gate.

It's some distance from the centre, although the host was happy to call us a taxi. Trams stop directly outside, and I would have used these if staying for longer.

The house is absolutely beautiful both from the outside and the inside. Philippe is an artist and it shows with the design and decor of the home (and garden too). The owner Philippe is very kind, generous, thoughtful and outgoing. You will feel like you are with a good friend.

It is a very nice, cozy and very artistically designed hotel. The owner is extremely nice and a very interesting and courteous person to talk to. The bed was very good and so was the breakfast. I look forward to my next visit when there is time to use the fantastic garden.

Well! You have read all the reviews, why listen to me? As everyone says, this is an amazing place to stay, try it you won't be disappointed. Phillip is a great host, fun, clever,talented and just a little bit crazy. What an experience 👏.

If you dislike anything here you are overthinking life.

Family business required us to be in Valenciennes , this place was convenient, reasonable and appeared to have some charm. The owner’s restaurant recommendation was spot on.

The sun could have shone. A electric vehicle charger would really have been nice.

Quirky but homely. Phillipe the host is warm, friendly, interesting and very entertaining. Beautifully furnished. Very clean & comfy. Lovely breakfast.

We could only have one night!
