“A perfect gem”

My wife and I took a driving trip around Belgium and were taken by the beautiful pictures we saw of the river valley near Dinant and the descriptions of L' Auberge de Bouvignes. We had a wonderful time, in no small part due to the incredible hospitality we were shown by Vincent and his wife. A highlight of our trip to Belgium was the long scenic bike ride we took along the valley and then up the excellent bike path up to the Maredous Abbey where we had a delightful lunch along with a wonderful Abbey ale. Vincent provided the bikes and the directions of course! That night, he wanted to make sure we could have a drink with dinner and not worry about driving the 10 minutes back from Dinant so he drove us to town and gave us his cell number to call when we were ready to be picked up. There was nothing that we asked about that was too much to ask. Our room had been recently restored and the windows faced directly into the side of the mountain/hill - not much on the scenery but extremely private! The hotel is right along the main road with a low wall on the other side - you walk to that low wall, down a few steps and you are right on the river side and right where the bike path is - could not be more convenient if you like to walk or ride. (and according to Vincent, this path is where Rommel used when he stayed at the inn in the early days of WWII). Dinant is worth seeing for its fortress on the hill and its lovely church but for us the attraction was really the lovely countryside and the spectacular hospitality.
On a practical note - great free WiFi and a really reasonable room rate were icing on the cake. Really an exceptional place to stay.

“A wonderful experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

Stayed for 3 nights in October 2011. Superb hospitality and the room was excellent, large clean and very well kept and upto date. Free Wi-Fi was available throughout.

We were made to feel extremely welcome by Vincent and Elena with a welcome drink waiting for us. Breakfasts are very good and unlike some hotels you can take them whenever you wish in the morning.

We stayed during the week when the restaurant is not open. This proved to be no problem at all as Vincent will take you to a local restaurant of your choice and collect you, so no drinking and driving problems.

They spend the time to be friendly and as it was our first visit spent time telling us where to go in the locality whether it be for walks or cycling or to visit a local town or Abbeye. They have maps and guides available to help you plan your day. Vincent also speaks 4 languages which helps no end.

All in all a great experience.

Room Tip: Rooms at the back are quieter although all are well soundproofed.

“Thank you Vincent and Elena for a wonderful stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

We chose this inn for the last few nights of a two week trip ( where we stayed in some lovely 5 star hotels) and it is definitely the one we will remember most for years to come! The hospitality of the owners was outstanding from the greeting as we arrived, to the maps and advice for day trips, to the enjoyable discussions in the evening and during the fabulous breakfast to our fond farewells. We loved our room in the back... Spacious, quiet, charming with stone walls. Do not be put off by the road in front or the train tracks... You cannot hear either and you do feel you are off the beaten path a bit. As mentioned in other reviews, the hosts are the "secret ingredient" that makes this inn a great choice.

“Amazing service!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 September 2011 via mobile

Stayed for two nights in September 2011, all I can say is the hosts are fantastic the room no 4 we had was huge and very clean. Restaurant was very good, overall lovely experience. Normally we stay at the best rated large hotel around, but due to some events happening in the area we booked into Auberge de Bouvignes, all I can say is lucky us!

“3rd time we have stayed here- say no more really!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011

Once again, my brother and I stayed here. We keep coming back!! Superb hospitality, excellent rooms and a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The owners are just superb, they make you feel so welcome and we would not want to stay anywhere else.
We arrived on motorbikes- they were garaged up strightaway and a beer was waiting for us in the bar.... what more could anyone want on arrival? To top this off, we were taken into town to a restaurant and picked up later in the evening. To say Vincent goes the extra mile is rather an understatement. A truly fabulous stay.... thank you.
