Château Lambert

First off, let me get this out of the way: I obviously belong to the hordes of “plaintive folk” (refer to Mr. Marlier’s kindly worded and not-at-all aggressive response to negative reviews here on Tripadvisor) - you know, the kind of annoying people that insist on staying someplace clean. If you’re also “plaintive” in that way and value simple hygiene, kindly skip this absurd place that has the audacity to call itself a hotel - nay, chalet. Or wait, was it a castle?… The place is hard enough to reach so location would never have been its key feature. I’d booked here because I was keen to relax in the “1-hectare garden” before catching a morning flight from CRL. What a sorry mistake. Upon arrival, I had to call our host - who was mysteriously away from the property (again, cross-check with other negative reviews) but assured me his son would take care of accommodating us. Which he did - eventually. First though, I had to win in a game of hide and seek since his eagerness to accomodate the guests had led him to hide behind a column (?!). Said host showed us to our room - the “King’s Room”, mind you - only the best for us plaintive lot. I’d already begun doubting my choice of accommodation after noticing a decaying pile of trash at the front gate and the state of the “parrot room” right across the entrance - but the King’s room sealed the deal. Decrepid floors and carpets that had not been vacuumed in ages, bedding still bearing fond memories of previous guests unfortunate enough to have used it, tons of dust on the (otherwise nice old) furniture and spider webs across the ceiling. And regally topping it all off: a portable chemical toilet (!) in one corner of the room, and a shower (!!) in the other. The common bathroom was in an even more appaling state. And our ‘host’ for the day - who was obviously the only person present in the house - had the audacity to talk about dinner and breakfast. Yeah thanks, but this place needs a visit by the Public Health department first before I’d dare to eat there. I’ve slept in hotels in many corners of the world but had never seen this level of nonchalance. The attitude was obviously something along the lines of ‘deal with it or leave’. So I called Philippe Marlier straight away and left. Of course, I gave him the opportunity to drown me in a sea of lies about his Covid-stricken caretaker and how he’d been away from his “lovely property” for “about a week” so could not “control things”. As he said though, “no one has died” - and they weren’t about to either, because we were leaving this place like a bat out of hell! We instantly received a full refund - little consolation for the fact that Philippe (& co.) lost us time and money to get to the absurdity they call chalet, and stressed us out over essentially nothing. Of course, I found better accommodation elsewhere (not hard considering all of the above) - but places like this should not be allowed to welcome guests in any kind or form, regardless of how man

An amazing host in a stunning home. So accommodating and welcoming to my family. Perfect place to stay. Make sure you try the best home produced beer! The welcome and kindness will not be forgotten. Thanks for a great stay.

if you like peace and hospitality, and you are easy going you've come to the right place. We were kindly received by our host Philip and had a pleasant time. Rooms were clean and nicely decorated ( just the way it should be ) The living room has a large billiards table and a real record player. with a selection of some old music ;) with songs what makes us smile ;) We will definitely come back here again and enjoy the hospitality.

Auf keinen Fall buchen! Tage vorher wurde uns der Betrag der Nacht von der Kreditkarte abgezogen und als wir ankamen hat uns der etwas rüde und unfreundliche Inhaber mitgeteilt, er habe eine Air B&B Gruppe angekommen, wir könnten nun doch nicht bei ihm übernachten und er hätte für uns „etwas anderes in der Nähe“ organisiert. Wir haben das akzeptiert weil müde und keine Lust mehr zu suchen. Eine Unverschämtheit. Wir haben dann an der neuen Unterkunft gehört, dass dies wohl die Geschäftspraxis des Chateau Lambert ist und häufig vorkommt, in manchen Reviews haben wir dies dann auch festgestellt. So interessant diese Unterkunft klingt, ich würde auf keinen Fall empfehlen dort zu buchen… sehr schade.

Chiamarlo soggiornare anche solo una per notte è dire farsi del male. Sala d'entrata con tante cianfrusaglie e poca pulizia. Non ho le prove ma ho chiesto per colazione un tè e mi è stato servito dopo ben 15 minuti e la dissenteria che ho avuto alla sera successiva è probabile della scarsissima igiene. NB il mio amico che non ha preso il tè ma ha condiviso tutto non ha avuto nulla quindi....... Il titolare mi ha riservato la camera King , nulla a che vedere con la parola. Al mio amico la Queen, sempre circa disgustosa come la mia. Water nascosto in un angolo con tenda , lavandino che nemmeno le pecore si abbeverano , tubi di scarico esterni , prese elettriche con riduzioni con riduzioni molto pericolose. Io penso che il Titolare non conosca bene come si conduce un'attività. State alla larga di questo postaccio.

Ambiance cosi ,dans cette endroit plein de surprises.son parc avec animaux idéal pour les enfants, ces différents salons confortables et le ptron ax petits soins pour nous. Les chambres sont très confortables et le grand plus c est qu'il n y a ucune nuisance sonores malgré l proximité vec l aéroport, on passé 2 nuits u calme.
