Château de Dissay, The Originals Collection

We didn’t stay at the hotel or visit the Spa but ate in the restaurant which I have done before. The lunch menu was very odd and neither main courses sounded very appealing and indeed were not appealing when they arrived. Mine was some kind of croquette supposedly of pork but could have been anything. The pea puree accompaniment was OK. The desert was ok but the startes not up to much either

The le Château de Dissay Poitiers is an epic castle hotel that is set in extensive grounds. The room is quite large and stately, though dated. The views from the window onto the grounds and dry moat is fantastic. The public rooms of the hotel are superb and the large internal courtyard is excellent. The hotel is close to Poitiers making for a great out of town stay, All in all, an interesting chateau hotel well worth a stay.

Beautiful room, with a luxurious bed. Excellent staff who went out their way to make our stay special.

Newly settled in the region, my wife and I were looking for a romantic and exotic place, without the children, to spend an exceptional moment of love. When we arrived in Dissay, time seemed to stand still once we passed through the gates of the Château de Dissay, transporting us from the 21st century to the 15th century. However, make no mistake, the establishment has preserved the charm of the 15th century while offering rooms with refined decoration, elegantly combining the charm of the old with modernity. Upon our arrival, we were warmly and professionally welcomed by Carole, the Cinderella of the place. Upon waking, after spending a night in a five-star-worthy bed, what a delight it was to discover a breathtaking view of the splendid property. A true haven of peace that reflects the refinement of our hosts. The whole experience shows that beauty is not where you expect it to be, but that this place has the gift of surprising and seducing us simultaneously. The gourmet restaurant, for its part, deserves praise. We thank the chef as well as the warm and professional teams for their attentiveness. The cuisine, of great finesse, offers a menu and dishes worthy of a starred establishment. The dishes highlight homemade products, offering unique aromas and instinctive inspirations evoking flavors from elsewhere. I particularly recommend the desserts, not only for their exquisite taste but also for their presentation, worthy of a masterpiece painting. And if you are as lucky as we were, you will meet the owner of the place, a man who, although he does not have a title, certainly has the demeanor of a prince and a king. Our congratulations to our hosts. Natacha and Laurent HOUGUENADE.

We stayed here as a stop over on our return journey to the UK. The chateau and location is absolutely stunning. Welcome extremely good and staff very helpful. We had a panoramic room which was very spacious and had lots of original features. However, there were no hand towels, only bath towels and very limited lighting. There was a light over the door, two small reading lamps for the bed and a small downlight over the sink in the bathroom. Access to the room was interesting via a spiral staircase! Dinner in the restaurant was excellent, well cooked and well presented wth a good wine selection. Service was attentive without being overbearing. Breakfast was a bit disappointing. It was clear from the room that only two rooms were occupied as only two tables were laid. Service was excellent but the coffee was a bit disappointing, there was no milk for cereal (although we didn't want any), no water in the boiler for cooking boiled eggs and only one type of jam (albeit lots of it!). There was a good selection of breads ham and cheese though along with a choice of fruit juices.

The property needs a bit more care, something so simple as replacing the light bulbs in the dining room! The staff are always very kind.
