Restaurant Hostellerie de l'Abbaye

Rude welcome from the person who will be the waitress for dinner. Fortunately, this is somewhat compensated by the waiter who is friendly; although I walk with a cane, I am not informed of the existence of an elevator and am thus forced to climb a rather steep staircase! Room without decoration, very sad. Extremely cramped bathroom, unclean shower. No Kleenex. Dinner is okay, nothing more, except very slow. Breakfast served until 9am only! (under the pretext that the set-up for lunch is necessary). At first, the receptionist is very friendly, it is she who tells me about the existence of an elevator.

I was accommodated in an external building located 300 meters from the hotel due to a lack of availability. The room is comfortable, although the towel dryer didn't work. The private parking is a plus. For meals, dinner and breakfast are served at the hotel, also 300 meters away. The quality of the food is good. However, the service is just okay, sometimes feeling like it's a nuisance.

It was very cold in the room when I arrived late in the evening. Despite my call to ask for the heating to be turned on, it was not on when I arrived. The quality of the food in the restaurant has dropped significantly.

Very beautiful accommodation in a great setting

For a "Confort" room, our room was very small and basic, no safe, no coffee making facilities, no fridge. Tiny SDB with a shower with black mould.
The towels were very small and the thinest we have ever seen - more like face flannels.
Small bar was full, so we had our drinks at one of the restaurant tables.

Very pleasant business stay at the Hostellerie de l'Abbaye. Good dinner and breakfast and excellent value for money. One organizational point is slightly below. The hotel part being full, I slept in an annex, located about 300m from the hotel. The comfort is very good, but the weather conditions made traveling between the two parts unpleasant.

Just a misunderstanding about the room with option included: breakfast, this not being included in the price

Quiet with comfortable bedding and parking, that's exactly what I expect from a hotel, so well done, spot on. Only the internet network needs to be reviewed but hey, the operator network works well so not a problem.

A very good hotel, compared to all those encountered. A quality bistronomic restaurant, very pleasant, a beautiful comfortable room, friendly service. I highly recommend this establishment.

Pleasant place, tastefully decorated hotel. Perhaps an effort should be made on the organization of table service.

Very good, pleasant room, very good food, excellent service except when there are too many people in the dining room.

Une équipe très sympathique dans un calme et bel endroit, à deux pas de l'Abbaye Royale et de son joli parc, et à cinq km de la biennale d'art contemporain de Melle (raison de ma visite).
La terrasse intérieure arborée de l'hôtel est un vrai petit coin de paradis pour dîner et prendre le petit-déjeuner.

Very nice and cozy hotel located in a small village, very comfortable except the size of the standard beds which are a bit tight

A great overnight stay. The staff were outstanding and very helpful. The only real negative was that the room was small. Great shower.
We ate in the pretty courtyard. The food was a very good.

GOOD

I was surprised by the room which was not the one shown in the photos when I booked on the Booking.com website. It was really small, the furniture (like the table under the television) really shabby, like the cracked ceiling. I had the misfortune of lifting the sheet before getting into bed, only to discover numerous hairs, eyelashes, hair and other dirt on the sheet. Finally, I consider that 103 euros for a room this small and in this condition is a completely abusive price.

Excellent dinner

Comfortable and warm hotel. Bright bedroom, bathroom with window. Good quality bedding. Very friendly welcome and staff. Full breakfast and fresh products. Evening meal taken at the hotel: the taste buds were delighted! Hearty and delicious

Vriendelijke ontvangst met aandacht voor onze wensen.

Always a great experience with each stay spent in this accommodation. Top-notch catering!

I recommend

Alright

Excellent restaurant and breakfast buffet

Staff very friendly and helpful. Dinning room staff very good, . Food well presented, excellent quality. The morning staff, Jan 26, outstanding!
We enjoyed out brief stay..

Stoel op de kamer est zeer gewenst. See the details of the zoals loszittende wc bril.

Good hotel with a pleasant welcome. Very nice decor throughout the establishment. A luggage rack is missing in the room.

Small problem with the operation of the television, but not very serious. There were only 3-4 channels accessible and not necessarily the most interesting

A very well maintained establishment. Very professional staff

Loved the hotel, very “ old worlds” on the outside and very up to date on the inside.

This hotel is in a small town with very little going in. A visit to l’Eglise Notre Dame de Celles is a must though. It is right across from the hotel. There is one very good reason to visit this hotel and that is for the restaurant. I would drive out of my way to go back. The food is exceptional and it was by far the best meal we had anywhere on our trip - 10/10 to the Chef Team for fantastic cuisine and the young waiting staff who were so professional. Our room was small but adequate.

Our meal was one of the best in recent years

Lovely hotel and great food.

Comfortable bed. Apart from that, the stay remains negative: bedroom overlooking the terrace (noise nuisance), poor sound insulation, cleaning is done in a rough way since on the baseboards, behind the bedside tables and between the wall and the sink a lot of dust and cobwebs. The managers must be aware because when you return the keys to your room, you are not asked if your stay went well.

It's a shame that the breakfast buffet is not provided on Sunday morning It's always a pleasant moment Especially charged 13 €

Prohibitive breakfast in the room In the absence of staff on 14/7, service only offered in the room Options of choice not respected with oversights (fruit juice, compote, eggs, and knife to spread the butter!), although noted on the transmission form Royally commercial offer: €12 for breakfast instead of €16 As for the room: review the closing of the front door, which is noisy and poorly wedged; warn during restaurant / barbecue evenings: when you leave your windows open (summer period), it is not very pleasant to enter a smoke sauna flavored with cooking meat…

The modernisation of the hotel, whilst creating a comfortable and modern hotel has removed any semblance of the building's history.
In the room, there was no information whatsoever about the hotel and its amenities. We were expected to download an electronic concierge which we found very unhelpful, simply being a repeat of the website.
The very modern lighting controls were extremely complicated and not user friendly. For instance, it was impossible to leave on a light in the toilet overnight, sometimes essential in a strange room, without also leaving on a light above the bed.
The air conditioning was also very difficult to control accurately.
We felt, on the whole, the room was a triumph of design over function.

High and dangerous bathtub without a grab bar

Room needs to be refreshed Soundproofing not good
