Trip to the South of France in late June. This was a good distance from Calais leaving the final leg south with only a short hop to get past Lyon. We arrived in good time mid afternoon after 440 miles. There was a large lunch party leaving so the car park emptied and this bode well that it was dealing with large numbers of locals. 

We got shown our room which was the family suite, didn’t need so much space but hey it was a holiday! Nice room, facing out the rear over the pool. Time for an afternoon drink and Yannick the front of house chief advised us on a suitable local Cremant.

We had booked dinner, Yannick explained the restaurant is a busy destination in town (the hotel is about half a mile from the centre but no reason to leave tbh). At the appointed hour we had dinner and the room was indeed full, serious eating/gastronomic with a good and large wine list with three at least dedicated wine units in view in reception. Tres bien!

I took Yannick’s suggestion for a red with dinner as my choice would have been too heavy for this dish and it was a favourable price by comparison.

Excellent dinner and bed, talking of which our four poster bed was good, as was the aircon and electric blackout blinds. 

Breakfast was the usual simple French style of bread/pastries etc and we were on our way. Mentioned the hotel to a Belgian chap at our hotel in South of France as having seen the food pictures/location he was interested for his annual pilgrimage too. 

Likely to use this again next year!

First time at great independent hotel and restaurant

Just repeating the positive reviews - great room, marvelous food, very friendly service. Worth a stop. Their restaurant should definitely get a Michelin rating, at least a Bib Gourmand. The “Superieure” room 10 was very tastefully decorated and large.

Great stopover in the Bourgogne

Bedrooms very comfortable and spacious, but the real attraction here is the food. It was absolutely amazing, and the staff (although working very hard!) were very good at keeping us well fed and wined during our dinner. The wine list was notable with some great priced, very good local wines. We stopped here en route from the Alps to Calais. It is just off the motorway, very conveniently located and a brilliant place to stop if you like amazing food.

Fabulous food and comfortable rooms en route to Calais

We had visited 4 years back, so this time we were rather disappointed. Last time we had a room adjoined the garden. This time we had to climb a long staircase. The important change was the food. It was almost totally tasteless! The menu said 'spidercrab' and of course we could not resist. In came the crab formed as 3 little rolls- firm texture, surprisingly tasteless, not even a sealike flavour. The appetizer was hardly visible. The second course fish, small, but alright. The third course, which was calf was very delicious and juicy. The winelist, however, was magnificent and the prices reasonable.

Reconsider your foodrations, remember courses do not have to be microscopic, just because they are expensive!

If you are on the way either north or south via A6 this is an excellent stop for food and rest. 
You will eat excellent food and sleep in comfy beds. Take a swim in the pool and relax to be happy and fit to continue the trip as we did. Very dog friendly! 

Excellent foodie stop

This family run hotel serves superb food, has comfortable rooms and charming staff.  It's situated in a convenient location not far from exit 29 of A6 and has an enclosed garden - ideal for travelling with our dog.   We've recently over-nighted on three occasions and the high standards never vary.   We're looking forward to our next visit!

Always a pleasure to stay at Le Moulin du Gastronome

I had booked for a one night stopover on my long journey down from Germany to Spain recently. Finding this lovely establishment was relatively easily. I was grateful for the free car park at the front and to the side of the hotel. In fact this hotel is located next to the busy A6 motorway and is on the D17 going in to Macon. But surprisingly the traffic noise didn't distract from a lovely visit here. 

Check in was quick. My room was on the first floor. It was fairly basic with a large double bed, air conditioning, a flat screen TV, and separate bathroom with shower (the lighting over the sink needs repairing). WiFi is available but I couldn't be bothered with the need to register into the system. Is that sort of thing really still necessary nowadays? I was travelling with my dog who also settled down comfortably - pity that there is a 10,00 surcharge for dogs...

I decided to stop for dinner here which was fantastic. Sitting out on the pleasant terrace, I had the Menu Gourmand which included a delicious foie gras starter (another reviewer was asking for them to take this off the menu - sorry, but I prefer to have a choice, thank you very much!!). The main course was Charlois beef done to perfection with a delicious sauce and an interesting array of artistically prepared vegetables. I also enjoyed the extensive cheese board and delightful, fruity dessert. Brilliant. In fact each course, and the various amuse bouches was prepared to perfection. 

The wine list is really extensive. I made it easy for myself and relied on the recommendations of the restaurant. With the foie gras I had a glass of sweet muscat followed by a glass of Savigny-Les-Beaune with the beef. 

Service throughout was polite, efficient and attentive. These people know what they are doing and they do it well. 

I wasn't here long enough to explore this place further. But I did notice a quaint little swimming pool in the back garden which is obviously a big plus. 

I skipped the breakfast (extra charge) the next day and checked out quickly having paid ca. 200€ for the night and dinner.

Wonderful place for an overnight stopover. Spoil yourself in the restaurant - I did!

Leave busy Beaume behind and stay at this lovely hotel near Macon
Comfortable refurbished room, small pool and garden but a stand out restaurant with first class food - the starter we had Crème parmentière au foie gras, magret fumé et asperges, wild asparagus smoked duck and and exquisite creamy foie gras sauce was outstanding as were the mains menu saveur priced at about 36 euros good value for food of this calibre.  Great service and a good quality continental breakfast 
Recommend and will call again when in Burgundy

Exceptional restaurant and lovely hotel

Tasty food ( we  enjoyed the Menu Saveurs Plat ), attentive service , interesting wine 
list. Prices are a bit on the high side but we shall return when we shall be back in the area - and the area is so beautiful that we shall return !

Do not miss while in this area

Very friendly hosts in this small hotel. Beds comfortable. It also boasts a superb restaurant with excellent food and great wine list. Very attentive staff. Will definitely return for the third time! Slight downside was slow internet in the room, but we survived!
