Château de Sissi

I didn't stay here, but I had a long lunch here. Surroundings are lovely and the staff was attentive enough, but the food was entirely uninspired and totally without imagination. Pretty plates and very ordinary taste--nothing at all memorable: lunch for a single person for over $90 should be memorable. Foie gras was served dead cold with maybe a tablespoon of apple accompanying. Duck breast was somewhat overcooked and the sauce was so unremarkable that it might not have been there. Pear dessert was OK, but if you're going to poach a pear, add a little wine or calvados or even vanilla. Champagne flutes at 15 euros each are also not a deal. This was a birthday treat for myself, and it was a serious disappointment. Ordinary at best.

The hotel has an interesting history and we were received in a very friendly way. The rooms were good and had all what is needed. Dinner was excellent. Breakfast was good too. There are stairs to get to the rooms and no elevator. Hotel is not luxurious but very pleasant.

The welcome at reception was perfunctory with no assistance offered with baggage. The room was small and no account had been taken of the well forecast exceptional weather conditions which meant we had to remove the huge thick duvet from the cover and sleep under the empty duvet cover. The shower head in the bathroom was too heavy for the flimsy fitting which my husband had to reassemble. The weight of the water made it fall forward , shooting water everywhere . It was reported but doubt it was fixed. Very thin towels. The only information in the room required using a QR code - with no overnight reception contact would have been tricky in an emergency. Everything seemed rather tired and formulaic, including the staff. A shame as it is a lovely venue and could be fantastic. The food is OK but the occasion somewhat marred by difficulties about where one was allowed to sit for a pre dinner drink. Really silly small niggles that need sorting out.

A l occasion de mes 30 ans mon mari m a offert deux nuits dans ce château étant une fan depuis mon enfance de l impératrice et de la région, le cadeau ete bien trouve . Nous avons sejourne dans la suite sisi . Tres belle suite avec une baignoire double jacuzzi, une petite salle de bain avec cabine douche un peu petite je trouve ,deux wc , une chambre grand lit, un dressing ainsi qu un grand salon. Je trouve qu il manquai un frigo, un plateau de courtoisie avec the et cafe . Je pense que le tarif eleve de cette suite mériterai d avoir le minimum ! Un peu decu egalement de la part de l hotel car aucun petit geste alors qu il ete au courant de la surprise et de mon anniversaire le samedi ! Le petit déjeuner est correct avec des produits de région. Personnel agréable. J ai eu un massage offert par mon mari. Le masseur vient de l extérieur , il est très pro et efficace ! Détente absolue!!!

Le nom laisse rêveur ! Mais les chambres sont bien mais rien exceptionnelles Propres et fonctionnelles Bien insonorisées.. Le seul bémol est si il fait chaud et que vous vouliez laisser la fenêtre ouverte, cela risque d'être compliqué car le bruit de gravier et des gens qui sont aux tables dehors en train de boire un verre remonte vraiment beaucoup... Très désagréable La douche sans plus même un peu limite... Chrome abîme joint moisi bref pas terrible Le parc est magnifique et très bien entretenu Beaucoup de com' autour de Sissi mais un peu en dessous du niveau exige dans ce genre d'endroit dommage

Magnifique du début à la fin, charmant accueil, tout était splendide, nous sommes sous le charme. A refaire. La cadre est charmant, très bien refait, l'esprit de la vieille bâtisse est très bien conservé. Une splendide découverte, lors d'un petit détour en Normandie, nous y repasserons.
