The building and amenities are charming and historic. The staff is very thoughtful and efficient. The food was great! Paddling the Tarn was an exceptional experience.

Room was small but the bed was comfortable and we had everything we needed.

Beautiful building. Hosts were very hospitable. Meals on the terrace were lovely. Very comfortable bed.

Whilst the room was clean and tidy, we were in an economy room, it looked like it had been newly spruced up, and the bathroom was a good standard. There were just some small improvements that could have been made such as holes filled in on walls, hooks for towels, wardrobe that was tall enough to hang dresses, aircon working at night, and the sound proofing was terrible.

Amazing location. Beautiful hotel. Tom was really helpful, recommending and helping with day trips.

Unfortunately the air con in our room wasn’t working, so we asked for a fan but that didn’t work either. Our room was very small .

Such a beautiful building right in the centre of the village. So much character. The outside seating areas were absolutely beautiful too and very spacious, lovely area shaded by trees.

It would be a thoughtful touch to provide dog bowls, especially considering the additional charge for accommodating our dogs.

This charming hotel resembles a quaint riverside castle, offering delightful river tours. ( Not part of the hotel) It exudes an authentic atmosphere, with a welcoming chef-owner. Our room was comfortable and spotlessly clean.

Tom was an excellent host- recommended a brilliant walk at Cassagnes and then a canoe trip down the spectacular gorge. The restaurant dinners x2 did not disappoint- very tasty with a good wine selection.

The bathroom still showed signs of age. Insufficient water pressure to properly shower.

I stayed here over ten years ago and boy, did they patch up the dusty old place for the better. Especially the almost Ibiza-esque lounge/terrace on the ground floor is a welcome renovation. Good food and correct service. Great beds. Unrivalled location in the Gorges Du Tarn.

The location is in the middle of the gorge area, so it's great for exploring there (but that also means it's on a very windy, narrow road that must be navigated very slowly). The restaurant on site is very good and they have a really lovely patio for dining. The staff was very helpful and considerate. The rooms are updated, so don't expect the chateau feel as much as the hotel feel. There is no air-conditioning and the room had a very small (and not very helpful fan). (I stayed at other places with no ac and on hotter days, but at least a good fan helped a lot!) There is a "no food in rooms" rule, so don't expect a snack, a fridge, or to get take-out from anywhere, let alone room service.

My 13 year old nephew at times. When he refused to eat a baguette because it had tomato in it, even after we took the tomato out, because it still had an essence of tomato within, I lost the will to live for a while. The baguette was not from the hotel. It was also delicious, unlike my nephew.

This is the third time we have stayed here, and it gets better every time. This time we took my family, including a 13 & 15 year old, and they absolutely loved it! The team there are super friendly and efficient, the breakfast is great, super fresh croissants made on site, and bread from the little boulangerie up the road. We had dinner there every night, lots of choices, fantastic meats from the family farm, great pasta, hard to fault. Chef Paul does a fab job! Tom & Francis could not be nicer, going over & above the call of duty a few times! The setting is stunning, and we hiked up to Roc du Hortous one day, then canoed 24kms right from the hotel on another day, total bliss, it could not have been better!

It's hard to realistically complain about a restored 17th century Manoir. The place is in impeccable condition. You will see some uneven floors. But so what? The place is in excellent condition, gorgeous and the service is outstanding. We are so glad we stayed.

You can't beat the setting. They team is easy-going and professional. There were no hidden charges or attempts to push for extras, which we rather appreciated. The owner was affable and understood how to take care of his team and his customers. Another nice touch was they truly got the idea of an American-style breakfast, which can be hard to come by in France. For some, it is a genuine comfort.

Totally unique as shown in the photos of this old, historic Manor.

very convenient on the Tarn Gorge road in the middle of the quaint village of la Malene. the staff was exceedingly helpful.

Breakfast was a little disappointing for the price no fresh fruit, scrambled egg somewhat watery. No salad choices on the main restaurant menu no fresh vegetables ( we added fresh vegetables to one of our meals and were presented with ones from a frozen packet) or fresh fruit. The room was also tired looking, a crack in the toilet seat, shower cubicle dated and not particularly clean either. With a little bit of investment and care our room would have been more than acceptable.

The restaurant food was good albeit not too many choices. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Scenery around the hotel was stunning. There’s not too many 3 star hotels that can boast a magnificent view of the gorge as this one had.

It was very hot during our stay in August and as the rooms didn’t have air conditioning it was a bit uncomfortable. The fan provided was a relief.

The historic hotel is in a great location in the center of La Malene. It has a good restaurant with tables in the large garden as well as a “tapas” bar on the street with music nightly.

We arrived in a heatwave and without any air-conditioning in the room we sweltered and had difficulty sleeping. There was also constant music from the restaurant below (no double-glazed windows), so along with the traffic noise, not really a venue for those seeking peace and quiet.

Wonderful and historic old building, making it feel a little like staying in a chateau. Located at the heart of all the action, plenty to see (and eat!) in the vicinity. Friendly staff, small but adequate room.

No internet connection. We booked a superior room, but were initially allocated a very small room with no space for 2 cases, let alone our dog! Following our protest we were allocated a much superior room, but had to change to another room after 2 nights.

The location, the beds, the breakfasts, the style. We had good rooms, but only after some initial disappointment. The staff were excellent.
