Fantastic location - the feel of a country chateau is all around you and very real. The grounds and buildings are themselves worth the trip - and then add in the fantastic room with a jacuzzi tub, unique furnishings, bulgari toiletries, and 5-star service and you can understand why it is such a destination. Horrible traffic made us very late... more

wonderful place, charming, relaxing and absolutely worth the price paid. Compared to other places it is not so expensive! The room is really nice, the bathroom completely new (you also have professional hairdryer!) and design-furnished, you also have Bulgari items to use as shampoo/conditioner/showerbath. Very nice breakfast but not included in the per night fare. The dinner was absolutely outstanding... more

Wonderful place as it had been an abbey. But extermely over priced for what you get. Poor services with attitude, unwilling to help. more

hidden in a small village, after many windy small roads, through forests and fields we (group of 4)finally arrived. the gates of the abbey opened to let us in to the grounds, passing a lake with rowing boats, surrounded with sun-loungers we pulled up at the main building passing a cosy outside seating area by a large fountain. As beautiful... more

I had my wedding at the abbaye at the end of May and I just cannot express how magical it was. I wanted a small destination wedding. When our guests checked this place out online they all wanted to come so we had 60 people there (all the way from California). It is difficult to put into words how magical... more

The abbaye de la Bussiere is simply extraordinary!...The medieval abbey has been beautifully restored and we loved the extensive gardens with century-old trees, river, lake, and fountains everywhere. The staff could not have been more welcoming. It is worth dining at the abbey, either in the restaurant or the more affordable bistrot. The food is first-rate, and the service perfect.... more

We stayed at the Abbye earlier this month for 2 days and nights. The setting is beautiful, peaceful and perfect for relaxation. A few minor things keep this from being a strong 5. When we arrived (which was granted a bit late) we were met by the receptionist who gave us a very quick 5 minute tour, took us up... more

Last year, in May, en route to the South of France, we stayed at the Abbaye for one night for the first time. We liked that so much, that we decided to have a two night's stay this year, again on our way to the Provence and the Cote d'Azur. And again: We were not disappointed. The details of the... more

This hotel does indeed look beautiful and is no doubt a great place to stay and eat. However, our experience in dealing with the owner (Nancy) was quite shocking. We were driving to London from Italy 3 weeks ago when about 36 hours before we were due to arrive for an overnight stay at LaBussiere we had a horrendous car... more
