Bien placé pour visiter l'allier et le patron très bon guides pournôus conseiller sr les lieux à visiter et/ou découvrir. On recommande et nous y retournerons

Hôtel bien situé et confortable

L'hôtel est bien situé sur la Nationale 7. Grand parking gratuit. Accueil très bien et rapide. L'hôtel offre des solutions de restauration bon marchés. Les chambres rénovées sont spacieuses, bien chauffées, la literie confortable, c'est calme (j'avais une chambre côté opposé à la route). La salle de bain et WC mériteraient une petite rénovation, mais ils sont très propres. Petit-déjeuner simple et efficace, bon café. Je recommande cet hôtel. Propriétaires très accueillants et sympathiques

Traditional Independent Hotel

Great hotel - staff were very good & encouraged us to go for local & regional produce Traditional clean & bright rooms The biggest plus of the place is Madame - great welcoming smile after a long journey was welcoming & her genuine warmth to us staying at her hotel was invigorating. She definitely makes the place - plus she serves the drinks & cooks your food!! The steak was one of the best I've had & the local wine was excellent All at a great price

Nous sommes venus dormir en famille le soir avant notre visite au PAL. Très bon accueil par les propriétaires, nous avons manger dans le restaurant de l'hôtel, très bien mangé. La chambre bien, juste le plafond de la salle de bain qui montre des trace d'humidité. Si nous repassons dans la région nous y ferons volontiers une nuit
