A nice location in Vezelay France. Hotel staff is friendly and on top of things. Room seems a little dated but clean.

A fabulous hotel/ Check in is at 4pm, no earlier!
Fabulous hotel with a couple of caveats.... Beautiful public spaces and lovely rooms. First experience when attempting to check in a couple of hours early or at least drop our luggage was met with a dismissive attitude by male front desk clerk whose name we did not get. Take this hotel at its word that check in is at 4pm and not a moment earlier.... Also there are only 4 parking spaces at the hotel which you need to reserve in advance.
When we did check in around 5pm, we were warmly greeted by Laurente, who was friendly and very helpful with things to do near Vezelay for our next day. We ate at L'Eternal in the the hotel that evening and it was fantastic! The service and food were truly delightful!
Also the service at the bar was fantastic. This is truly a very very lovely hotel and we would highly recommend it!

Interesting history to this old coaching inn. Obviously the rooms have had to be altered and adapted to cater for modern requirements. In spite of being on the main road through the village the traffic was no problem. Prices reflect its 4 star status. Staff were most helpful and efficient.

We stayed an extra night in advance of our Expedia booking. Hotel was very clean, staff was very professional and helpful. Hotel is a bit pricey. Breakfast buffet was very expensive and not worth it. It was large but the coffee was not warm and the scrambled eggs were cold. All-in-all because of the lack of attention by the breakfast staff, we decided to eat dinner elsewhere. We were glad we did as there are several excellent restaurants within 50 yards of this hotel; we dined at two of them.

Would definitely return
Friendly and well located in the beautiful town of Vezelay. The gourmet menu was excellent. Wine is perhaps a little expensive. Room on the 5th floor was pleasant and had a good view across the countryside.

Nice hôtel! We had dinner there and it was excellent. The only thing that we regret is that the kettle was broken and they didn’t leave a little spoon to stir the sugar on my coffee.
