Great location, very calm and green, the property itself is beautiful, staff was very helpful and friendly, restaurant is top notch, the building itself is amazing, unfortunately there is a serious lack of maintenance which is visible every where, the rooms in the tower were very basic, we were upgraded to a suite in the main building which was very nice but still the hotel needs a lot of work all around. Also the pictures online make the hotel look more luxurious than it really is. In my opinion the hotel is a 3 star and not a 4 star. I truly hope the owners will work to improve the property as it could really be amazing.

Charming setting & a vegetarian menu.

The hotel is pleasantly situated in a small village in a charming valley, which gives it a peaceful setting. The hotel restaurant served inventive and tasty food with a very welcome menu for vegetarians and gluten free diets. The staff were helpful, particularly given our limited French. The stay was marred however by flies in the room, in the restaurant and particularly in the breakfast room. There did not appear to be any attempt made to rid them from the interior of the hotel. It was difficult to tell whether this was a common feature or an unusual event but it was impossible to eat a meal without a fly landing on our food.

Food, wine, and fab setting in a quaint village

Beautiful hotel and grounds in a picturesque village. The old mill is charming and the waterfall is wonderful! Our basic room was remodeled and clean... a little boring for our taste considering the historic nature of the building. It looks like some of the pricier rooms in the main building would have more character... one even has a balcony adjacent to the waterfall. The staff was great and accommodated us for a delicious dinner even though they were completely full.

Character property in a stunning location.

A stop over in the Dura. We wanted a character property in an interesting location. The facilities and meal were very high standard. The hotel is built next to a stunning waterfall.

Komfortabler Ort zum Entspannen

Das Hotel liegt abgeschieden am Ende eines Tals im Jura. Es ist ein ehemaliges Mühlengut mit Bergfried. Die Inneneinrichtung ist edel, die Zimmer sind komfortabel, groß und geschmackvoll renoviert. Das Frühstücksbüffet ist gut. Es gibt nach Voranmeldung Essen im Restaurant, die Menüs liegen zwischen 48 und 117 €. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön. Ein Wasserfall liegt direkt neben dem Frühstücksraum, zwei weitere Wasserfälle sind eine gute Viertelstunde zu Fuß entfernt. In das Hotel zu kommen ist eher schwierig, da die Rezeption nur von 15.30 bis 19 Uhr besetzt ist. Man braucht zur Einfahrt durch das Tor einen Code (oder muss warten, bis jemand anderes kommt) oder ruft an. Beim Ausstellen der Rechnung musste ich reklamieren, da die Anzahlung online im Voraus übersehen wurde.
