Georges Blanc Parc & Spa

Everything was wonderful, room, restaurant, service..except the massage which was not up to the standard of the hotel.

Wonderful and exceptional! Thank you for the experience and the stay and the foods. Mr. Blanc even came to greet us and we were very moved.

Georges Blanc is a legend and we've stayed at the hotel many times. However, the restaurant is the stand out reason for our stay which is without doubt one of the very best and I say this heving eaten at lots of 2 and 3 star Michelin restaurants. The hotel and restaurant isn't the flashiest of places, but that's what we like as it's steeped in authenicity and a timeless reflection of classic French hospitality and food.

Three words: spacious, clean and comfortable. We stayed at Les Saules for two nights and were very pleased with the accommodation. I think the hotel is actually a little underrated as a 3*. The hotel is located across the square from it's posher parent (Relais and Chateaux) but as a resident you have access to the spa and breakfast if you want them. You can also walk around the beautiful garden. Our first floor room was on a corner and had two balconies, one overlooking the river and the other towards the square. All air-conditioned and with a large shower room. We also had two meals in the Ancienne Auberge across the road, which were excellent. If I had one small complaint it would be with regards check-in and check-out. You have to go across to the other hotel for this and I have to say it was a very lukewarm welcome. Coldly efficient. Was glad I didn't have to walk past the reception desk each time we went in and out. For trips in the area, make a point of visiting the Royal Abbey at Brou (Bourg en Bresse). Not only is this an outstanding historical monument (with good audio guide), it also has an excellent art collection spanning several centuries. And for a less pricey coffee or drink in Vonnas, try the little cafe on the corner of the market place, 'Le Trotteur' - friendly, cheerful service.

Our first visit since 1986. Again we experienced wonderful food with superb matched wies in a marvellous hotel.

I had been here in the 90s while traveling with my parents. I remember it like a wonderful experience. Many years later the food, the service and the overall experience is over the top.
