Unfortunately my Son left some clothes in his wardrobe and we have had little or no assistance in retrieving them. We understand it isnt the Hotel's fault but we would have appreciated their help finding out where the clothes went as they were very expensive.

Comfortable hotel
The hotel was as advertised and the room was very comfortable There is clearly a shortage of staff but those we dealt with were very friendly The only issue we had was with the meal in the evening.

Modern Medieval Hotel
It was fun to stay within the chateau-fort walls. The room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was modern. Breakfast was convenient and good. The breakfast attendant was very friendly and worked hard to keep the buffet and coffee bar stocked.

It's a lovely place to stay but you need really good instructions to find how to get there. Postcode does not really reveal entrance. Would recommend it for ambience. Food fantastic but slightly pricey. Who cares when you have such a fantastic place to stay.

Well worth stopping - fantastic
Fantastic hotel and really superb friendly staff. Location is good and a short walk if you don’t want to eat in the hotel. The second night was fully booked so we tried a local restaurant. Food in the hotel is first class, really first class and they staff were friendly, had a lovely manner and sense of humour. Would be happy to eat there and stay again and again. Best hotel in France that I have used in years. Sedan has some shabby streets but is nice to walk around and the hotel is impressive in the Castle walls.

Wonderful Setting
Stayed here during the town's medieval festival which takes place on the 3rd Saturday in May every year. The hotel is situated in the centre of the complex that is the Chateau Fort of Sedan, the largest fortified castle in Europe. The setting is wonderful, particularly at night, and the festival itself is very interesting. The hotel puts on nearby parking and a horse drawn shuttle for guests, as the courtyard is taken up with festival activities. The staff are nice. The room was OK, though quite small. It is really a good spot to stay for the Festival but equally is a good place to stay if you are passing through to elsewhere in Europe.

We loved being able to sleep in the castle, and the bed was very comfortable. The room could have had a few extras, such as more pillows and towels than one per person without requesting them, and an iron in the room rather than downstairs. But overall we had a great stay

Nice property but...
The property itself is incredibly charming. The room was nice as well. However, the staff, including both the reception and in the restaurant, could benefit from some customer service training. I was not made to feel much like a welcomed guest either when I checked in or out. Service as a solo diner at dinner and breakfast left a lot to be desired as well. No one seated me, checked up on me, or even brought me my bill. Be aware that even though it comes off as breakfast being included with the room, you may be charged a surprising 14 € when you check out.

Stunning location and the room was fabulous. There was a medieval festival starting the following day and parking arrangements were different but good as there was a horse drawn cart taking us to the hotel reception.

Castle Stay
The room was very small but the staff was great. We could not unlock safe in room, I know beyond a dould that used correct code. I told the maid and she had key to open safe, I did not think that was a secure system. The Location was great and we had a great time.

Places like this are gems that add to a trip. The history and the ambience make staying at a place like this more than worth it. We only go around this life once and places like this make it worthwhile.

Medieval castle
Staying in the chateau Fort was fantastic as I had worked on the fort in the 90's installing the interactive AV equipment. That was before the hotel was built in a converted part of the fortress wall. There is so much history in the area and although the town itself is rather plain there are a variety of places to visit, especially if you are into history.

Stay in a Castle!
If you want to stay in a castle then look no further. We had a fantastic stay and really enjoyed the rooms which had castle feel mixed with modern comfort. Walking the entire grounds allowed for some nice views and great pictures.Dinner in the restaurant was amazing

Fantastic setting
My wife and I stayed here for one night as part of a short touring holiday in NE France and Belgium. The idea of sleeping in a medieval castle was really great and the whole hotel from check in to departure went without a hitch. We ate in the bistro, lovely, a few drinks sitting outside in the courtyard in the warm evening before back to our room. We couldn't fault it and know that we wil stay there again in the future.

Unusual atmospheric place to stay
We arrived late, hot and exhausted. We had got hopelessly lost in Sedan and was rescued by a kind taxi driver who guided us to the fort's front door. We were welcomed by Collum who was really kind and welcoming. After our experience this meant a lot. A visit to the fort itself is well worth it, and kids would love it. There was easy access to the small town of Sedan. We enjoyed our stay, the people we met were really friendly and we would love to return.
