Parfait
Notre séjour a etait très bien , l'accueille a était des plus chaleureuse (comme si c'était chez nous).
Propriétaire très charment est simple malgres leurs statut.
Mobilier d'époque , on se croierez au 19 ème siècle et cela est très immersive.
L'accès dans la plupart des parties du château et accessible ( bibliothèque , salon etc..).
Le petit déjeuner à était lui aussi parfait , nos hôtes ont était à notre écoute est cela est plus qu'agréable.
Nous recommandons sans souci est nous reviendrons si cela nous est possible.

We had an amazing experience staying in the amazing Chateau de Varambon. Countess Boissieu and host Thibaud were very friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious, the breakfast was authentic and delicious. The chateau and its surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful.

Un cadre exceptionnel, un accueil simple et chaleureux, vous habitez un musée et vous devenez châtelain pour le temps de votre séjour... pour flâner entre les cèdres majestueux ou suspendre le temps en decouvrant les ouvrages centenaires de la fabuleuse bibliothèque.

Cadre magnifique
Le château est situé dans un superbe parc ombragé avec une belle aire de jeux pour les enfants. Le petit déjeuner très bien et avec un service charmant. Très bon accueil des propriétaires.
Uniek aan deze accommodatie is dat het voelt alsof je gewoon op bezoek bent bij de graaf en gravin en mag slapen in één van hun mooie kamers. Onze kamer was dit jaar héérlijk groot met een écht oud balkon én een uitzicht! Niet normaal. De douche was misschien wat klein. Wat "grotere" mensen zouden hier een probleem mee kunnen hebben.

The history of the property was quite interesting and Count Boissieu did a wonderful job explaining the significance of the family castle. It was a lovely place to stay. However, we were a bit taken aback on our second night there when we returned at 11pm (after a full day of sight seeing) to find Countess Boissieu at the door sort of scolding us for having returned so late. She said something to the effect “you are arriving too late. This is not a hotel, this is a guesthouse.” This was totally confusing to us as the Count had told us the night before about how to get in when returning late. We liked the Château and the atmosphere, but my wife was so upset with the Countess’ comment that we would not feel comfortable recommending this place to our friends. By the way, their own guest guidelines mention nothing about a curfew ☹️

Sehr authentisches Chateau in ruhiger Umgebung. Die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Man wird in der Familie gerne aufgenommen. Leider sind die Öffnungszeiten der Restaurants in der Umgebung sehr eingeschränkt.
