Le Chatel

Staff were friendly and helpful without being over effusive. Room was spotless and well arranged. My dog was welcomed. Lovely litte park over the road.

Hotel set on a very busy road. I know that fire doors have to be solid but the doors were very heavy and practically impossible for me to hold open and pass through.

The dinner was suprisingly good, while the breakfast was fair ( only cold choice) but lovely baquette and croissant.

Old and not renovated hotel with small and unclean rooms! Heating with a noisy AC, which made sleeping impossible.The Wi-fi isavailable in the lobby. Uncomfortable bed!

Very close to the city and thermal spa.

You could here people in the opposite room talking.

Fantastic food. Friendly service

Very dated bathrooms. Bedrooms quite small but comfortable bed.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The town was beautiful.

We were only passing through, it would be good to stay a little longer

The hotel is what you expect from a 2 star french hotel. The staff great check-in was straightforward. The beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of storage for a couple of days stay. We opted to pay for breakfast, which was good value with quality food. The location for Royat was ideal, and the parking was good.

The rooms were on the small side and a little bit old fashioned in decoration. The shower cubicle was very small, and the power of the water was low in the shower.

Convenience for Charade Track

Old furniture and bathroom

Cleanliness

Air conditioning to be set just by the reception that was in another building, two floors down without lift. No air ventilation equipment nor window in the bathroom. Reception and hotel closed between 13:30 and 16:00, so no chance to get in in that timeframe.

A hidden gem. Looks tatty from the outside but rooms are clean and spacious. Evening meal was truly excellent. New chef about a year ago apparently and his menu is excellent. Breakfast is very basic but OK (obviously without the chef!). Very reasonably priced and nice gardens and stream opposite for a stroll with/without a dog.

Rooms are a little tired but not uncomfortable.

Hotel Le Châtel is a good place to stop for a night or two if you, like we, have a car and are using it as a base to explore the area. The area is very nice and scenic and there is a big, free, parking lot nearby which can support most kinds of cars. Everything was clean, the staff are very friendly (English is limited, but you'll get on fine with even the most basic French) and the breakfast and dinner options (they have a restaurant with an evening meal) is excellent.

While extremely clean and well kept, with a lot of attention paid to keeping that way, the place and the rooms are rather old, excluding the bathrooms which are a bit more modern (maybe 2000s). If you want to see Clermont-Ferrand (we didn't), this location is quite far out, as well.

The staff were good and informative. The bathroom was good Breakfast was very good and varied choice

The room was dirty and dated, the bed uncomfortable,

Good location for a walk into town

Very small room, dated decor

Good location, however not too close to downtown Clermond by foot. Did not try the restaurant however overall reviews were good.

Basic rooms with basic facilities however good price quality.

Very tired dated hotel. Poor food and food options. Expensive for the quality.

Breakfast and location

Smell and the overall wetness.

Good budget hotel with small dated rooms. Good restaurant for dinner and generous breakfasts.
