My husband and I had a fabulous stay on Château de Bagnols. The staff is friendly and took care of us like specials guests! We had dinner, is was excellent! À special mention to Hervé... We will come back!!!

We arrived on an late Friday evening after a long drive up from the South of France. I think both our jaws dropped open as we come up to the main building. It reminded me a little of Leeds Castle in Kent at first but as we got closer we appreciated the French chateau in all it's glory. The interiors... More

From the moment you drive up the hill and see this magnificent old fortress, you will be enchanted. Built in the 1200's, this wonderful Relais & Chateau offers the absolute best in luxury, comfort and charm.

If you ever want to do the ultimate splurge for yourself and a significant other this is the place. The staff, the food, the lodging are all exemplary. The Bresse chicken for 2 should be pre-ordered as it takes over an hour to cook but it is well worth it for a romantic dinner. It is prepared en table and... More

I picked this Relais & Chateau location due to its location - about midway from Provence to Paris and due to the photos on the R&C website. Well, this was a major winner.

When we drove through the gates to the chateau, I think we all gasped as our jaws dropped. This place is breathtaking from the grounds of the chateau, to the public spaces, to the guest rooms. Although it seems ideal for a romantic getaway, I came here with my sister-in-law and three nieces, and it was beyond perfect. I was... More

Just got back from a magical evening at the Chateau de Bagnols. An evening that started by gazing at Mont Blanc bathed in the pink sunset light far away on the horizon then followed by a stroll through the magnificent gardens around the imposing fortress. At last we entered the dining magnificent dining room where a fire was burning in... More

Have stayed At Bagnol a number of times over last 10 years, through changed ownership... It is still absolute perfection with views over the Rhone valleys, impressive castle, traditional rooms. The food is also very spoiling and it is in a stones throw of some of the best French restaurants in the world
