We stayed at La Cote Saint Jacques for one night on our way home (South East UK) from Decize (Loire). The primary purpose of our visit was to try the restaurant so we selected the lowest tarrif rate for a double room at 200 Euros. The hotel is on the opposite side of the river a little away from the... more

This hotel has "have" or "have not" rooms. The rooms next to the river have a view and have air conditioning. In a second building across the street the rooms have no view (except of the parking lot) and no air conditioning. No air conditioning during the summer months makes the rooms very uncomfortable.

December 2006 was our fourth winter holiday at La Cote and it was, as usual, incredible. The first year we were stranded on Christmas Eve (which is also my husband's birthday, and the reason for our visit) and so the hotel kindly put us up in a beautiful room at the top of a winding stair with an unparalleled view... more

This August we booked at the Cote St Jacques, largely on the strength of the Gault Millau 19/20 review. In previous years we have tried many top restaurants in the Burgundy/Champagne area - Les Crayeres; L'Esperance at Vezelay; Lameloise; Bernard Loiseau... more

My husband & I stayed at this hotel on our way back from participating in the Rallye des Alpes in July this year. Everything about the place is perfect. The setting is lovely, the food is exquisite, the service very good. The sommelier deserves special mention for his knowledge & friendliness. Our deluxe room was fantastic with a private balcony,... more
