Relais du Bois Saint Georges - Hôtel de Charme

Stopped to charge the Tesla and had 3 cappuccinos ! They were so bad we didn't even finish them .. Then the bill €22 !!! Jesus !!!! The place looks nice but €8 / awful coffee really takes piss. Yes there a swan walking around. Whoopie. I need 200 words to leave review. This is 200

We spent 2 weeks traveling in France and stayed overnight on our way from SW France to St Malo. If this review was about the restaurant it would be 5 stars, the dinner was superb and the chef and staff should be commended. We know the French love food and the care, taste and presentation of the dinner was unique and exquisite. If the review was about the hotel we would however have given it no better than 3 stars. Other reviews list out the positives and we agree, friendly helpful staff, a small green oasis in a commercial area by a motorway, very easy access. Safe parking. Quirkily decorated, clean. We arrived at 4.30pm and sat outside reading in the sun in pleasant surroundings. For my wife and I it started a debate about are we looking for a good nights sleep or a cultural experience? I would hate to own a private hotel because the branded travel hotels have raised the bar so high. So where this hotel doesn’t measure up is in bedroom investment where the branded hotels excel. No air con, (difficult to sleep as the room was too hot) only 3 plug sockets in the room and as one was for the tv and another for a light which was needed. Bed not up to best standard. Inadequate lighting ie difficult to read in bed as no bed side spots etc. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room. No safe. Bathroom adequate and quaint but needs updating. Modest size room. Very average breakfast.

We stayed for 4 nights and our experience was very positive. Our rooms were decorated individually which our children and myself loved as we were in the Jaguar car room! There is a lovely pool that we swam in every morning. The grounds are also delightful with jumping fish and a beautiful swan called Matilda in one of the large ponds. The food in the restaurant is mind blowing with amazing flavour combinations. We had moule one night which my wife really enjoyed. Can't wait to go back again and try out another room.

Comfort Double ok except aircon pumping out warm air on a warm night and no controller to switch it off. Dinner in Restaurant exceptional value, highly recommended, wine very expensive though. Breakfast limited but good coffee.

Good location just off of the motorway. Great grounds to walk the dog, Nice pool and a good breakfast with efficient service. Whilst we know the rooms ‘have character’ our room was very quirky with a very tiny bathroom which unfortunately didn’t work for us. Sadly one of our meals in the evening was not edible and whilst the staff apologised no alternative was offered. Disappointed that when we questioned the room after checking in and returned one dinner, no remedy or alternatives were offered. Despite the positive aspects of this hotel (this is our second stay) we are not likely to return again.

Thank good for air con & swimming pool had temp was 40

Generally the stay was fine however due to it being fully booked for dinner, we were unable to eat in the restaurant and were offered a salad in the Lounge or our room as our evening meal. We also felt that despite being told we could sit in the Lounge and have drinks, the service we received was compromised as priority was given to those people in the restaurant who were only visitors. This was disappointing as we were paying residents at the hotel. Additionally my wife is a vegetarian and there was a very limited offering.

We used this as an overnight stay on way to the Gers. What a fantastic hotel in a beautiful town. The Arc of Germanicus on the south side of the river was an amazing surprise. The hotel: great accommodation, lovely welcoming staff and an absolutely beautiful dinner in an amazing setting by the lake watching Mathilde the swan and her three duck companions. We would definitely visit again.

Super place for a stop over. Restaurant is the reason I keep coming back. Recommended if you like gastronomique food in a tranquil setting.
