Guest Reviews:
- "Their flexibility and hospitality, the kitchen, the pictorial terrace with the exceptional view from the citadel - the staff !" - "Quite a quirky room, it seemed to be spread along most of the back of the top floor. Being positioned at the top of the old town right up against the citadel, access is though narrow streets (with utility works ongoing) but the hotel does have parking in the garden. The restaurant which is run separately to the hotel, the food was well presented and executed, mains of pigeon and veal sweetbreads were excellent and the deserts chosen were Paris-Brest and a poached apple. The wine list has some good half bottles that make sense rather than the wines by the glass. Hotel has an interesting history having been a convent and then an inn in the 17th century and a convent again and now a hotel."
