“Unique place to stay while touring Normandy”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2011

I so much want to give the chateau 5 stars, but I just can't. Driving down the old-world drive and pulling up in front of the centuries old chateau, I thought we had picked the perfect home base for our family of four while touring the D-Day beaches. Check in was easy, but hauling our suitcases up the narrow spiral staircase to the third floor tower family room was not. Don't get me wrong, I love the tower stairs, it just might be great to get some help from someone working at the chateau to bring everything up to our room. Speaking of our room, it is a charming room with a four post bed, a table with chairs set under a small tower window and a second small room with two twin beds and a spacious sky light window that opens up to the beautiful grounds of the property. That said, the bedding was extremely old and very tired. The large bed was comfortable enough, but the musty smell was not very comforting. As mentioned in other posts, there are spider webs and dead (and live) bugs in the window sills and corners of the room. The floor coverings placed over the tile floor have seen better days, and I decided to wear flip flops around the room. The kids' room was a bit dirtier than ours. The pink pillows that my son immediately moved off his bed where very old and dusty. They should not have been on the bed or in the room for that matter. The bathroom was cute, but not very practical. The sunken tub with shower head was hard to use without getting the bathroom all wet. While the website says there is wireless, there is not wireless in the tower. Our breakfast was not on time (we were trying to make an early D-Day tour time), and it seemed that it might have been sitting out all night-croissants a bit stale. We did have a wonderful experience at the restaurant! The food was great and our waitress made our night! She did not speak English, but between my sons' French and Google translator, we learned and laughed a lot while enjoying our dinner. If it were not for our restaurant experience, my service rating would be a 1. The chateau has so much potential! I hope the owners will read these posts and make a few needed service and facility changes (without taking away the historic, chateau charm-really a good clean and new bedding would be a great start) and then, this could easily be a five star chateau!

“A quirky little hideaway, a real gem”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2011

We had a lovely stay here. We weren't sure what we were going to get when we drove through the town but as soon as we came to the turning and went down the track we could sense that this was going to be a gem and one of the oldest places we've stayed in.
We had one of the little rooms at the top of the chateau and we went through a crooked passageway to get to our bathroom in the tower. A very sweet bathroom indeed with a view out to the courtyard. The restaurant was fantastic! We had such a good meal which we're still talking about now. The pain perdu was the best we've ever had! And the service was first class. Thank you!

“Amazing, unique castle in Normandy”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2010

My husband and I found Hotel Chateau d'Agneaux online when we were planning a trip to Paris and Normandy last year. The experience was wonderful - Normandy is beautiful, and has such a fascinating history. The hotel itself is really cool - You are staying in a castle! Our room was spacious, with beautiful, unique details. There are free bikes, which you can ride down a lovely path by the river (my husband proposed in a particularly scenic spot by the river) and there are lots of delightful animals out grazing. The restaurant was very good - we were the only ones there, so it was definitely romantic. We had dinner and then breakfast the next day. The staff was very nice and extremely accommodating. I've been meaning to share my review since I visited over a year ago, but just hadn't gotten around to it.

I'd recommend this place to anyone who wants a unique experience in a peaceful setting. It isn't too close to a booming metropolis, so if you are looking for a lot of action, this probably isn't your place. But it was one of the better hotel experiences I've had anywhere!

“Dirty and Over priced”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2009

We booked a room for 7 nights, on arrival we were met by this beautiful chateau, at that point we thought that we had made a good choice . We went to the reception to book in but there was nobody at the desk, after walking over gravel to the restaurant we found a waiter who was very helpful and pointed us in the right direction to a office next to the restaurant.
When we entered the office it was empty and we waited for approx 15 minutes before the owner arrived, he took our booking details and spent about another 10 minutes finding a room for us?.
The owner then took us to the chateau and up a winding staircase, the further we got the more dangerous it became, we came to the last section of the stairs and there was no handrail which was a struggle when carrying a suitcase, health and safety does not appear to exist in this establishment.
Now lets come to room number 7, we entered the room and the owner proudly shown us round the dusty and dirty bedroom, he then took us through to the bathroom which also was dirty and full of flys, there were dead ones on the floor and live ones on the windows, we expressed our concerns and were led to believe that the rooms would be cleaned, this never happened, also there were no coffee/tea making facilities in the room, this at times was very inconvenient as you had to walk over to the restaurant for any drinks.
We visited the restaurant on two occasions, once for dinner which was excellent and once for breakfast which was terrible and not what we had pre-odered, we tried to explain to the waitress that we had ordered champagne and oysters but ended up with ham,cheese and toast, both of the meals were very expensive.
After three days we decided that enough was enough, we approached the owner and told him we were checking out, he said that would have to pay for another three days, he somehow thought he was doing us a favour?, after a lengthy discussion we agreed on five days in total, however we refused to pay for the breakfast.
After the five days were up we moved on to another hotel which was far superior and a lot cheaper.
Chateau d'Agneaux could be a fantastic hotel, it needs more facilities a complete refurb and some love and attention, also there was no lounge bar area where you could relax with a bottle of wine etc.

“Lacks decorarion and service”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2009

The tower room was up 3 flights of uneven circular stairs--a definite safety hazard. The room itself was dark and dirty with spider webs and flies throughout and no decoration except old wallpaper and nails. It amy have been OK in the 19th centurey. The small bathroomhad a sunken tub that was difficult to get into and use. The staff was not helful; impertinent and hard to find. They ddidn't seem to care about clients. The restaurant on the other hand had excellent fod.
