Château Barateau

We only stayed for one night, the hotel looked a bit tired when we arrived, and the room could do with updating. However, what an experience we had. David on reception was so helpful and pleasant to us, Barthelenie was really helpful at the bar, but Lola went beyond the normal to make our evening enjoyable, she even invited the chief to come and say hello when we complemented him for the great food. The cover of the book definitely did not reflect the quality of its content. Thank you to you all for a fabulous stay.

The property advertising is very misleading. Where was the pool? Where was the onsite catering aside from breakfast? The accomodation was okay, if very isolated. No daytime cafes, just a couple of restaurants that only open for lunch, sometimes dinner. The fridge in my room didn’t work, so I couldn’t bring in an improvised meal. Like one other reviewer, I felt like I wanted my money back! So misleading!

Even though I only stayed one night, the experience was amazing. Meticulous attention to detail, making my stay a very memorable one. The food is incredible, whether you choose to dine A La Carte or try one of their very well put together Degustacion menus. Great selection of wine and they take great deal of pride in presenting the local Bordeaux region, its wines and local delicacies. Highly recommended.
