Hotel de l'Abbaye de Longpont

The place is beautifull but: -the swimmingpool- which is shared with is only available when there is no wedding next door

Sympatieke uitbater - prachtige locatie - Comfort kamer is erg klein ook de badkamer - Culinair niet erg hoogstaand, eerder beneden de franse middelmaat - het hele gebouw is aan renovatie toe - alles is oud wat ook zijn charmes heeft

The location is lovely and quite difficult to find and when we did arrive I thought that it was closed! however once that I had found Xavier and we had been taken to our spacious atic bedroom everything improved and the whole place came to life. The room was infact two rooms with two beds. Very comfortable with nice bed linen. 18 guests sat down for dinner with a comprehensive menu and an interesting breakfast the following morning. The atmosphere is for those who like to step back in time and Xavier puts in a great effort to accomodate all your needs.

We stayed for two nights in this beautifully located hotel. We found that both the hotel and the restaurant are very good value for money!! The hotel is located in Longpont next to the ruined abbey. The village is tiny and really pitoresque. We got a very warm welcome. The rooms are rather small and most of them have been very tastefully decorated (the others are in the process of being re-decorated)The restaurant serves real traditional French country cuisine of a very good quality! We thoroughly enjoyed our two dinners there by the fireplace!! Breakfast is served in a beautiful little room and apart from the traditional continental breakfast items, we also had cheese and ham as well as smoked ham, eggs, fromage blanc, pancakes and yoghurts. We visited also the antique shop next to the hotel which had a very good selection of items. We really enjoyed staying there and appreciated the advice of Benoit about places to visit in the area!!(and there are plenty!!) We will be back!!!

En marche sur un chemin de mémoire entre Villers-Cotterêts et Verdun, notre première étape était dans cet hôtel de charme situé dans un très beau village à l'ombre des ruines d'une abbaye que l'on peut voir de la chambre. Calme assuré, très grande chambre, cuisine excellente dans le cadre du jardin de cet établissement, amabilité de son dirigeant, M. Verdun, grand connaisseur de nombreuses abbayes de France. En conclusion un lieu magique que l'on aimerait trouver souvent sur notre route...ou chemin.

This is the kind of place you would like to keep secret because it is so special and so unspoiled. It’s the archetype of a French hotel, old fashioned in a very positive way. The staff is super friendly, the room small but pleasant, the surroundings picture perfect and the food in the restaurant delicious. In summer you eat in the garden, in winter in front of a fireplace.
