"A truly wonderful hotel, nicely renovated rooms and access to the thermal spa is a real bonus too! This was my second visit in as many months, and I look forward to the next time.."

"Wonderful location with splendid views over river from large room. We extended to 8 nights so obviously good but tiny tiny wardrobe so clothes around room. However , we saw other rooms had much larger later so should have asked to change. Excellent overall"

"Our three week stay at Mandarou was a wonderful opportunity to remember that it’s the sights, sounds, and scents of the countryside that provide the best opportunities to relax and enjoy every moment of life. Exploration of the bastides, many within 30 - 90 minutes of Mandarou, provides many opportunities to explore the history of the area. Bike rides and walks through the many quiet country roads was a highlight of our visit, with something new spotted around every corner. The night skies are uninterrupted with light, so star gazing is an amazing experience. Joel and Chantal were wonderful hosts! Both were always welcoming and very helpful. They embody the essence is Mandarou. In short, our visit was everything and more that we hoped for."

"Lovely building and we had a really excellent dinner - the catering team was changing so they weren't on their new menu yet so what we had was effectively a one-off. Lots of attention from the chap who was taking over the running of the kitchen. We had an automatic email from the property saying we had pre-payed but when we checked out we were told we hadn't. That caused some confusion especially as the man at checkout kept referring to our Expedia booking - I know Hotels.com is part to Expedia but it was hardly helpful especially as this was all dealt with in French. The decor of the building is lovely and it is well set up for wheelchair access with lifts between floors (but awkward stairs from the car park to reception. Bike parking was rudimentary and outdoors but the chateau is in a very quiet spot."

"Three generations staying in a renovated chateau (with a secret cellar) in glorious countryside with a charming and most helpful host: what's not to like?! And the donkeys are charming and friendly too. A holiday like no other..."

"Great property for a family holiday, with lovely outdoor space and a big pool. We had such a lovely week and the housekeeper was extremely helpful, coming around whenever we had any questions."
