We had stayed here once before, so when our first choice hotel near Grenoble baled on us with only three days’ notice, we needed something quickly for a two night stay near the Vercors, so this was an obvious choice. The weather was very hot, and we recalled that the aircon here was fabulous. That was still true, as was our recollection that the rooms are functional and a little small – just about OK for two nights, but nothing more. The hotel is also very well placed for motorway and main road connections, so that was a plus. Our main gripe was the food. Breakfast is a very good buffet but the evening meal has lost it’s a la carte option from our last visit and now offers a three course meal for around €30 with very limited choices for each course. On night one, we chose a salad starter which was OK and I moved on to pork, also OK, while my wife chose steak, which was very tough and verging on the inedible. We raised this with the waiter who informed us that we were unlucky and it must just be a problem with that particular slice as their meat was chosen to be the highest quality (and given the menu price it ought to be). To be fair we were asked if we wanted something else, but I had finished my main by now and my wife had salvaged enough from the steak to make the idea of her eating the pork (which she didn’t want) on her own not really desirable. Given the limited main course choices, we asked if the menu would change the next night and were reassured to hear that it would be completely different. It wasn’t. Only two out of nine things had changed and none of the mains had. We thought about going elsewhere but nowhere else is within a short walk (and we couldn’t be sure if it would be better). So we both had the pork. Meantime on the next table we noticed a guy hacking away at this steak without getting very far. He must have had an unlucky slice as well. So, the rooms are fine, the aircon is brilliant, breakfast is good and its conveniently placed. So follow my advice. Stay one night only and don’t choose steak.
