Notre séjour trés agréable belles randonnées
Et visites de petits villages a proximité bien agréables nous étions a la decouverte de cette region du Cantal
Petit Bémol les chambres ne reflètent pas du tout les photos présentes sur internet
Les chambres ne possèdent pas de prises électriques au niveau des tables de nuit tres problématique si vous avez besoin de brancher
Un appareil pour l'apnée du sommeil !!!!
Sinon Accueil satisfaisant
Petit déjeuné copieux !panier repas proposé

Très bon séjour
Superbe emplacement (face aux monts du Cantal notamment le Plomb). La terrasse donne sur cette vue.
Personnel très chaleureux.
Village à un emplacement stratégique pour les randos au Griou, Puy Mary, Elancèze, Lioran...

bonne insonorisation des chambres hormis bruit des clefs (pas de carte magnétique mais clefs sérieuses). Absence de bruit d'écoulement d'eau. Sur un séjour de plusieurs jours, le ménage des chambres est fait à la demande. J'ai apprécié de ne pas avoir de passage de personnel dans ma chambre.

Mérite une seconde chance
Bon rapport qualité prix pour ce qui est du confort.
Très bel emplacement et très belle vue.
Petit déjeuner très bien
Seule la soirée repas fut très décevante malgré tous les efforts de la serveuse; certainement un problème ponctuel en cuisine qui a provoqué pour tous les clients un service beaucoup trop long et une qualité très médiocre du plat principal du menu.
A noter que la Direction a assumé en présentant ses excuses le lendemain et en faisant une réduction de 50% sur les repas pour tous ceux qui avaient diné ce soir là; ce qui laisse à penser que ce n'est pas habituel.
Nous sommes donc assez confiants pour réserver à nouveau dans cet Hôtel où l'accueil fut excellent et le personnel de service a su assumer et atténuer les mécontentements.
