Hotel le Clos Raymi

Oud hotel, wel proper, maar zonder airco, dus in de zomer geen optie! Ze kunnen ook geen Engels en dat zorgt voor miscommunicaties. Wij zaten met onze auto vast op de parking. We bellen hen op en zouden 2u moeten wachten. Ze stelden geen enkele optie voor om ons te helpen. Heel jammer! Na veel aandringen is er toch iemand ons komen helpen. Maar dat ging enkel na stevige discussie in het gebrekkig communiceren. Locatie ok, maar dus geen aanrader. Ook opletten want in Epernay is op zondag en maandag bijna alles gesloten in het dorpje zelf. Je kan beter in Reims overnachten.

This really is, as they advertise, 'home from home' - very relaxed. In fact, we only saw one lady who seemed to do everything. Friendly, and efficient, and we got to practice our French as she didn't speak English. At first we were slightly worried as it seemed further from town than we thought, but actually it's 5-10 mins tops to walk in and you have the town of Epernay and Avenue de champagne on your doorstep. Parking is handy too, though most champagne houses accommodate plenty of cars too. I read somewhere this was a house owned by Monsieur Chandon. I didn't know that at the time. As I say - very relaxed. You are really left to your own devices, everything is unfussy and homely. Art and paintings very nice. I loved the big windows, radiators ... old style French chic. Recommended for a great location.

As we drove down the road I didn’t expect much, it appeared to be a bit of a city street, what a surprise! A beautiful house, lovely interior, lovely French welcome. Our room was a delight, tastefully decorated, tranquil and relaxing. After a long drive it was perfect to just rest a while before dinner. Minutes walk from town, no need for transport. Breakfast was a bit steep at 18e per person, however, I didn’t mind paying that for the experience. Sometimes you come across a little gem and want to keep it all to yourself, this is a lovely place to stay with a really nice owner who goes out of her way to make you feel welcome. I really fell in love with this place, what’s not to like, comfy bed, great linen, robes, tastefully decorated. Beautiful house. Great host. Give yourself a treat as you really are worth this experience, if you only try it once. You won’t be disappointed.

We were so pleased with our choice of hotel for a stopover in Epernay. The hotel has so much character, is very quiet (just ten minutes walk from the centre), has secure private parking and a very warm and friendly host. Our room was light and airy, and very peaceful. There was a plentiful, varied offering for breakfast. It was the perfect place to stay and we would have no hesitation in recommending to others.

A classic old style French hotel. Everywhere looks as if it needs redecorating but is still spotless. Sort of shabby chic. Very nice artwork in rooms and public areas. Breakfast is good in a nice room. Nice gardens and good parking. Very good spot just behind Avenue de Champagne walking distance of champagne houses and town centre. Pricey? A little but we’ll worth it.
