"The setting for this restaurant is stunning, and the views are beautiful. Sadly the food was not good, nor was the service. I ordered Caesar Salad, but it was nothing like a Caesar, and consisted of soggy lettuce, tons of tomatoes, and three chicken nuggets, all covered with Balsamic. The steak was inedible, full of gristle, and we didn't much care for the french fries as they were dry and poor quality. The service was also very poor...even though it was not particularly busy."

"The hotel was easy to find using a car satnav app and it is set in a pleasantly quiet little town, with hardly any traffic noise. On our first night my wife and I ate in the hotel restaurant with an outdoor table near the pool. We had the Buffett and it was excellent, comprising soup of the day (tomato in our case); an excellent choice of hor d’ovres from the open Buffett (including shrimp, cold meats, crab meat, salads, eggs, smoked salmon, etc); for main course there was a choice of white fish or Fideua, a Valencian cuisine like Paella but with noodles instead of rice; then finishing off with a choice of cheeses or desserts. The creme brûlée was excellent in portion size and taste. There was also live music provided which made for a very pleasant evening. The staff were all most helpful and friendly and had varying levels of knowledge of spoken english. Our room was clean and sufficient for our needs with a surprisingly comfortable bed and a balcony over-looking the outdoor pool. There was an excellent shower in the en-suite bathroom and there was the basics of hand soap, hair shampoo and shower gel, plenty of towels, etc. We requested an iron and ironing board; the iron was quickly provided but the board had been mislaid. This did not give us a problem. Our room had a TV, but all the channels were in french. The free wifi worked sufficiently for most of our needs but struggled with Whatsapp or Skype calls. There is ample car parking space in the off road parking area in front of the hotel. The local amenities include a Tourist Office (manned by a gentleman called Duk, who spoke perfect english); a historical Catholic Church (with daily Mass services and ancient fresco’s on the wall); a small bar/restaurant with indoor/outdoor dining; a pharmacy; bakery, butchers. This is a no frills establishment, which is reflected in the price, and it has a great deal going for it. I would be very happy to recommend this hotel to fellow travellers."

"En visite dans le pays de Duras nous avons découvert par hasard ce restaurant dans un tout petit village. Accueil chaleureux de la patronne malgré l'heure tardive (13h30). Une carte peut fournie qui nous laisse présager de la cuisine maison. Effectivement une terrine de foie gras excellente, poisson du jour et viande cuits simplement mais avec accompagnement cusiné et de la recherche dans les saveurs. Autre surprise le chef n'a que 20 ans. A refaire sans hésiter lors d'un prochain passage"
