"Arrivée sans réservation dimanche soir beaucoup de restaurants ne servait plus. Nous avons fait un premier passage à la diligence qui nous a dit de revenir plus tard. Revenu un peu en avance nous avons été placés très rapidement.La nourriture est de bonne qualité et les plats relativement copieux. Serveuses et serveur très sympathiques. Patron un peu moins surtout envers son personnel et devant les clients ce qui n"est pas admissible. Surtout qu'ils étaient tous à 200%.Sinon une bonne adresse à comparer avec nos prochains repas"

"A hotel that we know well to have come there several times. The whole team is adorable, available, listening to the customers. The rooms are more than comfortable, breakfast is excellent, the restaurant room is really very pleasant. The dinner was very good with a very appreciable service. The Spa is particularly warm and relaxing. A very cocooning hotel in a relaxing place. A beautiful address! We will certainly return. Thanks to the staff for their welcome."

"Salers is a beautiful, if touristy town. It has many restaurants, but if you are looking for something other than the Auvergne staples of pancakes, truffade and ham the field is a lot narrower. Having checked over the menu, L'Evasion looked like it could offer something different. The set menu was slightly over 20 euros - more expensive than the competition, but more interesting. The trouble was, the starter (falafel) did not appeal to me. I asked if I could change that for one of the other starters on offer but was told very firmly that I could not mix menus. Why? If that is what makes the customer happy, then why not let them. I fully accept that I would pay more, but the waiter was not to be moved.As other diners came in they would be shown to a seat but then made to wait some time for a menu. I noticed the waiter twice take menus from people after they had ordered and walk back to the bar to put them away instead of giving them to the new arrivals who in one case he had to walk past to get to the bar. After receiving a menu there would then be a ten to fifteen minute wait for the waiter to take the order.My wife had the set menu, which she very much enjoyed. I went off menu and ordered the croustillant de gambas. This was lovely - stir fried vegetables in a sort of crispy tube with gambas and a thai-style coconut milk broth. As my wife could not eat all of her main course (salers beef with lentils and aligot) I helped out. It was also very good. Her desert was a sort of cheesecake with ice-cream whilst I went for the excellent cafe gourmande. I can't really fault the food. With an apero, a glass of wine and a coffee for my wife the bill was about 60 euros. Quite expensive by local standards, but worth it. The quality of the food deserves a "good" rating, but the service, I'm afraid, drags the overall rating down."
