déception globale: un établissement 4* qui n'a plus de restaurant, dont la terrasse reste vide de même que la terrasse petit-déjeuner et une chambre pas au niveau: mobilier reduit à sa plus simple expression, pas de café d'accueil, mini bar vide....n'est pa à la qualification!!! points positifs: l'amabilité et la disponibilité du personnel(réduit à sa plus simple expression) et la qualité de la piscine... le rachat par le casino n'est pas une réussite!!!

Moyen, mais sympa

L'hôtel est un peu fatigué et mériterait une cure de jouvence et de retrouver le restaurant qui faisant sa réputation. Par contre si le matériel est discutable, le personnel est très pro et fait tout son possible pour satisfaire ses clients. Bravo et merci à eux tous (hôtel comme restaurant Bistro).
