This hotel is under new management and has recently been refurbished. The rooms are beautiful and the beds extremely comfortable. Our room had a lovely view of rolling hills and farms. The restaurant is excellent. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Many of them speak English., More

My husband, daughter and I stayed several nights at Poste et Lion d'Or in Vezelay to rest and acclimate to the time zone on 10-day trip from Washington, DC. Our suite's comfort, decor and amenities were on par with the most gracious estates of Europe, making us feel we had landed in a paradise of refinement--one fully accommodating of an... More

They gave us a superior room, but I did not find what could have really been superior, beside the bathroom, tub without curtains, so, less than sperior. However, it's a charming hotel and OK for one night. More

We upgraded to get a room that was on a corner of the building on the top floor and could see the town from one side and out over the countryside from the other. Small windows mind you and the countryside view was from the bathroom...but we loved it. The restaurant staff were so frustrating at dinner that we walked... More

Visited the Basilica and found that due to the hour a room was required. Looking around the town the Hotel on a Sunday afternoon seemed to the best option. It is old and it does creak (a lot) but it has plenty of character. The view from our room to the Valley below was a picture post card. We dined... More

Our room (number 42) was said to be Superior, if that is the case the standard and large roms must be awful. Would not recommend to anyone but if you must make sure you don't use the restaurant, the staff are useless (except for one guy who tried very hard.) The vegetables served with my steak were near raw and... More

Hotel looks lovely from outside. Rooms were disappointing. Very small double bed and very small rooms. Breakfast so staggeringly expensive we didn't have any - (good cafe next door). Bathrooms were very basic - old fashioned plastic showers and no water pressure. Friendly staff. Very expensive for what it was, but then Vezelay is a very expensive but beautiful town. More

I was not impressed with the town of Vezelay. It is pretty boring. There is really not much to do there. If you have to stay somewhere, This hotel is okay. The staff was okay. The room was okay, a little dated but adequate. I did not care for the shower setup. It was a tub with a shower sprayer.... More

This hotel looks great, but you hear everything everybody does...I mean EVERYTHING! Snoring and toilet activities kept us up most of the night. The walls are paper thin...as are the floors. For the Money, this is a very poor value hotel....we paid 80 Euro, and the bathroom was only large enough for one person....which I am use to here in... More

This is an attractive establishment and the rooms are very pleasant but the noise levels given its proximity to the busiest area of town are extremely high. It may be a better bet in winter when the town is less crowded and when defective air-conditioning doesn't make your stay a total misery. I had an acceptable lunch at the hotel... More
