What can I say about the Chateau de Maulmont: it's expensive (though not crazy-expensive), but hey you only live once lol. I realize that's not very objective however, so here's a bit more detail. The Chateau is located in a great area that overlooks a picturesque valley, it is very near to the town of Vichy (yes, the same Vichy... More

We had chosen the Chateau de Maulmont for a nice and sophisticated stop on our way to the Côte d'Azur. The surroundings and the Chateau are very pleasant, our bedroom was big and comfortable if a bit dark on the sunny afternoon we arrived. We could notice the red staircarpet inside was in need of a good hoover. But these... More

The chateau was exactly what we wanted. It was just beautiful. Restaurant was excellent, the owners delightful, the staff couldn't do enough for you. We upgraded from a "comfort room" because of stairs and were out in a suite which was really good. The history of the renovation of the Chateau is very interesting and the Owners (her father was...

I was first greeted by a lovely woman Elliot who helped us to every end, even though we had arrived late. Staff were friendly and very helpful. It's in the countryside so be prepared to drive a while to get to anywhere but that is why we stayed there to get a dose of the french countryside. The pool was... More

We spent a wonderful two days at the Chateau with very friendly and courteous staff. Our room was fantastic, we were upgraded to King Louis Phillipe's room which was very special! We enjoyed our dinner in the restaurant, although wouldn't rave about it. We loved our bike ride with the free bikes provided to explore the amazing grounds and nearby... More

The new term for being 'ripped off' in our family is 'I have been Maulmonted.' The chateau is beautiful and could have easily been the treat that we were expecting at the end of our holiday. Unfortunately, we were bitterly disappointed. Before we went I suspected the restaurant would not be an ideal place to take my three year old... More

the french royal family really knew how to build a chateau, what a welcome change to stay in a truly unique building. This private family owned chateau which is open for hotel visitors for a few months a year is going to be a regular stop for us. What a relief to enjoy some originality and temporary escape from the... More

We loved our stop here. The owners went out of their way to welcome us. Our bags were carried to our room which was freshly decorated. Beautifully tiled bathroom. Dinner was fantastic, with friendly unrushed service. We walked around the lake in the morning before breakfast and sat outside to eat croissants and drink coffee. Blissful - perfect views. More
