"We stayed at this peaceful and pampering hotel for three nights in May. With considerable rain, the narrow unnumbered roads, and a good feeling about the hotel's culinary standards, we opted to stay in for dinner all three nights. The menu has limited choices, but changed each night. We were very pleased with our decision.The wait staff is young, earnest and suave if not completely experienced. The ambiance is informal French country chic. Someone has good taste in music as the background recordings vary from quiet jazz, new age to a bit of classical, all very tasteful and soothing. But we were here to dine, not to be cool. All of our dishes were attractive, tasty and employed ample local ingredients.The first night, there were only six diners. The second night that number quadrupled and the last night was nearly as busy as the previous. The first night there was one waiter who easily handled the thin crowd. There were four waiters the second two nights and they more or less kept everything on an even keel. No one was in a hurry and the overall experience was relaxed and fitting for a country hotel.The chef is equally talented with fish, fowl and meat for main courses. Starters and desserts are given careful attention. With supplements for several of the main dishes and a typical French mark up on wines, the meals are in the high moderate range and fairly valued for the quality of the meals. Just a few miles and worlds away from the tourist hustle and bustle of Honfleur, this is a very peaceful and attractive oasis for a fine, relaxing if not extraordinary meal. Non hotel guests are welcome, although in the minority."
