Very friendly host, made us feel really welcome. Due to corona, we had to get take out food, but forgot to bring fork and knife, so we gave him a call. When we got to the room, it was already there. Good breakfast, dogs allowed, beautiful castle.

Beautiful grounds, lovely terrace & staff
Beautiful property and grounds! The restaurant and service there was very good and the food was yummy. I recommended to the owner that upgrading linens and towels would improve guest experience immensely, and he informed me that was the intention before the challenges of COVID-19 hit. Room wasn’t cleaned very well the second day but once I mentioned it, the owner was very supportive in ensuring that would be addressed immediately. Overall, a lovely stay and Very dog friendly, with lovely hikes to notable areas through cherry and pear farmlands! Will definitely stay again.

We were very excited to stay in this chateau. When we got there, we were told we couldn't have made a reservation because they were booked. They suggested other places. While we were sitting there figuring out what to do, they came back and offered us rooms in the tower up a spiral staircase. It was nice of them because they're rooms they don't typically use as they are unusual. This added to the fun and we felt like they tried to accommodate us. We ate at the restaurant. It was good. The service was a little slow, but we were satisfied. The building is beautiful and we were happy to stay there.

Wonderful surprise
My husband and I came upon Chateau de la Motte as we were working our way from Frankfurt to Amsterdam.....and couldn't have been happier. Our stay at the Chateau set the bar for a magical vacation. Driving into the castle was magical....as it was evening, the castle and it's driveway were was dramatically lit. We were warmly welcomed by Reuben and his staff, who made us feel comfortable, welcomed...and immediately part of the family from check in to check out. The property is beautiful...our "room" was in a bungalow type unit on the property.....clean and efficient. We dined both evenings at the chateau and had delicious meals. The vibe was so comfortable.....with locals sharing tables always a good sign. We loved our first evening so much, we immediately made plans to return the next night. The highlight for sure was Reuben and his team. Everything was top notch....we felt cared for, not as "customers"..but rather as "real people". In just two days, we felt like we got to know the team and they us. We will definitely return to Chateau de la Motte....and send all of all friends here as well!!

The rooms are spacious apartments behind the chateau (out the back and across the street). The food was excellent (better than most) and the staff was genuinely friendly and helpful. I would stay there again!

La chambre était vieillotte et la salle de bain… étrange. Une veilleuse en guise de lumière dans la salle de bain : impossible de se maquiller ! La couette était ultra légère… nous avons eu froid. Bref, une mauvaise expérience !

"logeren in een "kasteel"
Men boekt onder de noemer chateau de la motte en uiteindelijk beland je is een oude weliswaar nette opgesmukte schuur met verschillende kamers over 2 verdiepen +gelijkvloers. Afstand van de kamers, gelegen aan een andere straat en toegankelijk via een bospad (wat in een strenge winter?)ongeveer 150m tot de ontbijthoek/brasserie. Het kasteelkader is wel mooi, maar dient enkel als naam

De entourage en plek waren mooi. Het ontbijt was uitstekend. De bediening vriendelijk en accuraat. De dependance waar wij sliepen rook muf(naar oud tapijt) en de handdoeken waren versleten. Een was zelfs met twee gaten er in en een vieze vlek er op. Voor de rest geen aanmerkingen.

Pratique mais pas top
Il est très agréable de pouvoir garer sa voiture et de profiter d’un bon petit déjeuner gratuit. Le parc du château est très agréable pour une promenade matinale... Par contre, la chambre que nous avons eue n’etait pas accueillante : ampoules grillées, atmosphère humide. De plus les chambres ne sont pas sur la même propriété que l’hotel : il faut traverser une route où les véhicules circulent rapidement. J’avais choisi cet hôtel pour profiter de l’ambiance du château mais il n’est pas permis de pénétrer dans celui-ci. On ne peut que le voir à distance. Dans ce cas, on se demande si notre naïveté n’a pas été abusée en nommant l’hotel ainsi. Bref une expérience qu’on oubliera rapidement.

Nice location. Aged room
Beautifull location and nice castle. The room was in simple house next door. The room was aged and very cold for the time of the year. Breakfast in the castle was perfect.
