“Lovely hotel, food disappointing”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed for one night on our way down to the South of France. We went out of our way to go for the food, however this was disappointing. We have eaten at many three Michellin starred restaurants and this did not live up to expectation. We had the tasting menu and it really did not have the wow factor, nor did it feel that a lot of effort had gone into the dishes. The hotel itself is lovely but the service was lacking considering this is an expensive hotel.

“expensive but worth every penny”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 August 2011

person found this review helpful

This Little country inn is unique. Everything was perfect, the attention to detail goes well beyond any hotel including the supposed best in the world. I am very difficult to please but this experience was faultless, every mouthful of food was exquisite, every thing in the room was tasteful and thought through. I can't wait to go back

“A wonderfull experience far from one's hectic life”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 March 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Let's first mention that we heard of Relais Bernard Loiseau many times and always positively, hence high expectations.
Well, how put it...It was just a fantastic week end. To satrt with, rooms (ours was on a terrace on the garden) are nice, spacious and cosy. I am not 100% convinced with the seventies look of the big and nice bathroom but my wife was.
Common rooms (living rooms, library etc) are nicely furnished and welcoming fires are burning in the two chemneys (we wondered how they kept them burn as I 'm always busy keeping ours alive...).
But then came the first dinner....Just an amazing experience: a fairy tale from the beginning till the end. Mises en bouche that are delicate and finely tasty, a fish on schalots bed that is just wonderfull followed by lamb with an onion- how to put it? - we just never ever ate such a wonderfull onion- the cheese was very good -though may be not the utter best we ever had- and then the deserts were just the icing on the cake: FORMIDABLES: I had BL's favourite chokolate ice & biscuit on orange sauce...just mervelous and my wife a fscinating artistic cube that was hiding a pinapple "emulsion"...
Next day and next dinner we had BL's mervelous "ris de veau et purée à la truffe " and my wife had an extarordinary desert: a pear that actualy was made out of fine sugar icing perfumed with a subtil japanese spice I unfortunately forgot the name of- with mervelous pear pieces + emulsion on a divine biscuit...
To make a long story short, Relais BL is certainly not the cheapest way of spending a week-end, but it definitely is woth every penny spent: just an unforgetable trip in French "savoir-vivre"....I must add that Dominique Loiseau spends much time with every guest and is a delicious hostess...I forgot about the wonderfull breakfast in the historic room that had welcome under many others, Churchill, Poincaré, Rita Hayworth, Mitterand, Chirac and so many others...Now one understands why...But don't feel intimidated by the roaring ferraris that stop in front of the Relais: Dominique Loiseau certainly knows haow to make everybody feel at home...and this, definitely is an achievement! As we say in french..."Chapeau, Madame Loiseau", it is a great success!
