“Fine establishment, wth three minor notes”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 December 2007
2
people found this review helpful

The chateau is full of charm and sits amid a beautiful rural France property. The chateau and grounds are impeccably maintained. We were there in October and the fall leaves were at their peak. Our room was in the historic chateau and could not have been lovelier. A nice blend of old and new: It was furnished with attractive antiques and had a great view of the grounds. At the same time, it had a modern bathroom with all the amenities. The service was excellent and had nice, personalized touches.

Three things travelers may want to be aware of:

1. The chateau is located outside of Luneville. If Luneville is your primary destination/point of interest, you should know that is somewhat difficult to find if you are unfamiliar with Luneville and the surrounding area. Stay here only if you have access to a car.
2. There is a cattle farm adjacent to the chateau, and we noticed an unpleasant odor wafting our way. This was not noticeable inside the chateau, but was definitely "in the air" outside.
3. Because of its distance from Luneville, there are no restaurant options other than the restaurant in the chateau. While the kitchen and wait staff are highly professional, be aware that the price of a dinner for two could exceed the cost of your room for a night. It is very expensive! A low cost alternative would have been nice.

With these three caveats in mind, I would not hesitate to recommend the chateau. The staff was pleasant and accommodating. The chateau, its rooms, and its grounds take you back to another era. We enjoyed our stay.

“Lovely Lorraine Chateau near Luneville”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2007

We enjoyed 3 nights at this wonderful property in the Lorraine, about 20-30 minutes from Nancy and with many pleasant sights nearby. Our room on the first (not ground) floor overlooked the garden and was large by French standards, pleasantly decorated, and very comfortable. In addition to spacious, clean and updated bathroom, there was plenty of storage space for our clothes and emptied luggage. Staff, as at most Relais & Chateaux properties, were gracious and welcoming. Expect your room to be serviced in the morning and evening, with a treat delivered sometime in the mid-afternoon.The restaurant earned a Michelin star, and rightly so by our reckoning; we especially enjoyed the pigeon and ris de veau. Service was outstanding and the selection of local wines was fairly priced. Breakfast is 20 Euros per person, but featured wonderful fresh fruits, breads and local yogurt as well as a great selection of teas. There is a mid-sized pool on the premises, which themselves are beautiful for strolling or lazing about; the road from Luneville provides a quiet run through the country side with little or no traffic. There appeared to be a seminar facility appropriate for small groups, and the seclusion of the property would make it valuable in that respect. Overall, we were extremely pleased with Chateau d'Admoneil, as with almost every R&C affiliate.

Stayed August 2007

“Stay a few nights!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2007

Highly recommended. Excellent dinners with perfect service in an elegant atmosphere. One of the few French hotels where I thought breakfast was worth the price!

The newer rooms off the courtyard are large (great bathroom) and very comfortable with whisper-quiet air conditioning (we needed it in May). Staying in the chateau itself could be a problem for light sleepers; there's train tracks nearby.

Stay for two nights at least! Luneville is more interesting than you might expect. Jewish visitors will want to visit the synagogue and the cemetery. The stones are somewhat helter-skelter as a result of 'la guerre' (first or second?). There are WWII memorials a short and scenic drive away, and no one should miss Nancy!

  • Liked — Excellent room, lovely grounds, great food

“Superb setting and service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 August 2007

person found this review helpful

We were looking for a stop-over on the way back from Switzerland to the UK (c. 5hrs from the Channel ports incl fuel stops) and picked Adomenil on location & tripadvisor reviews - and were not disappointed.....

Although not a simple access, especially at night, we used the sat nav instructions and made it, but very late for dinner. However, the hotel staff were incredibly helpful and understanding - and still welcomed us to the dining room and we were able to have a reasonable choice of dishes + everything else that you would expect of a 1-star restaurant (and they were more than happy for our two children to dine as well). Awesome cheese selection + locally strong wine list.

We stayed in one of the courtyard duplexes (as in a previous review) - and furnshings/decor were excellent + a short walk to breakfast + the pool (which is heated, despite previous comments - was at 26C). Breakfast was of high quality (especially the bread-baskets), but staff seemed a bit caught out by numbers (hotel did seem quite full on the night of our stay).

Grounds are beautiful and wonderful to walk/sit in - and would be worth staying for more than just one night.

Essentially, this is a high-quality restaurant (and with a second-string, more modern restaurant as well) in a rural setting with a selection of reasonably priced, but high quality, rooms/suites that offers exceptional service - and we will definitely return, on a less-hurried schedule.

  • Liked — Setting; finishings; restaurant
  • Disliked — Access (but this is not a major issue)

“Perfection in a beautiful setting”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 August 2007

It took a bit of finding but once we had crossed the little bridge and entered the courtyard the experience began. We were greeted by the receptionist who came out to meet the car and deal with the luggage - accompanied by a very handsome dog. Our room was beautiful, high ceilinged, wonderfully decorated and with 4 perfect apricots and 4 delicious tiny meringues set out on the table overlooking the garden. Dinner was one of the best meals we have ever eaten and for 43E a bargain. Service and wine were superb and one delicious plat followed another - sometines with helpful eating instructions from our waitress. The cuisine was adventurous, but the whole thing was a superb performance.
After that, we slept like logs in the total peace of this place. Breakfast was all that one could wish for and we took a stroll around the lovely grounds before reluctantly comtinuing our onward journey. We will certainly return - for longer next time.
