Hôtel Château Tilques

Located near to Le Shuttle but feels a million miles away. Beautiful setting.

Elegant, well-equipped, luxurious and yet understated at the same time. Very well assimilated into its surroundings.

Our room was in the Pavillon and was enormous and had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Couldn't fault the layout and comfort. The accommodaition was definitely above the three stars. Excellent breakfast. So much choice.

The restaurant and the breakfast are taken in another pavilion. On entering the restaurant in the evening we had asked to be seated inside as it was extremely hot. The waitress said we would be more confortable outside on the terrace as it would be cooler. In retrospect I think it was more convenient for them. It was not cooler, and it was scruffy. No charm whatsoever, apart from the passing peacocks. The menu was also limited.

Le cadre est magnifique, très paisible et reposant. L'ensemble de la propriété est soigné et l'atmosphère est particulièrement agréable.

Notre chambre dans le Château ne disposait pas de climatisation. Je comprends que la canicule est exceptionnelle, mais ce type d'épisode n'est plus rare et, au vu du prix des chambres, des ventilateurs me sembleraient être un minimum. Sans climatisation, la seule solution était d'ouvrir les fenêtres, mais notre chambre donnait juste au-dessus de l'entrée du château. Résultat : il fallait choisir entre la chaleur et le bruit des conversations à l'extérieur, ce qui a empêché ma fille de 3 ans de s'endormir avant que tout le monde soit couché. Enfin, le restaurant était correct, mais j'attendais une cuisine et des boissons d'un niveau supérieur compte tenu des tarifs pratiqués.
