Les Étangs de Guibert

We had hoped to Eat here but had been delayed several hours at the Channel Tunnel and as a result we ate earlier as we knew the restaurant would be closed when we arrived. The breakfast was very good and having read the menu we hope to visit again on another trip. The view of the Etang from our room was nice. The room we had was comfortable and spacious.

We first discovered this hotel through the now defunct French travel specialist VFB as this was included in their La Carte Hotels brochure. Beautiful setting by a lake and close to the A28/A88 autoroutes for access to the Channel Ports. Delicious French menu in the restaurant.

The woman who owns the property was lovely.  She spoke both French and English.  The restaurant was fantastic!  Good choices and good price.  The room was great and had a tub, which is unusual in France!  Comfortable, good price and good people!

Stopped for one night on our drive to gibraltar. The evening meal was fantastic the best that we've had in France. Worth the detour off the motorway. Our triple room was spacious and clean. Carpets in need of cleaning but Good value for the 75 euro that we paid room only. The set menu was 35 euro per person. The breakfast wasn't worth 10 euros each. lovely setting overlooking a small lake

A wonderful find 6 years ago. Tranquil and peaceful with great gastronomique food served in a super dining room. Waiters are attentive and restaurant romantic but can cater easily for large family gatherings.Between Le mans and Paris this is a great place to transit or jyst relax by the lake. Request bedrooms 5 or 6 as they have great views of the lake. Bedrooms are well equipped.

We booked as a stopover looking for something a bit different to the usual autoroute hotels. It was such a lovely hotel. Friendly, helpful staff, good size room and bathroom. The best part of the stay was without a doubt the restaurant..lovely food! We would definitely recommend the menu! I wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Lovely setting by a lake, close to yhe motorway excellent restaurant

Comfortable, clean bedroom, nice touch of a local drink left in your room to try. Excellent food in the in house restaurant. Pretty surroundings. Would definitely stay again.

A regular stop for us, consistently great food and comfort, peace and quiet.

Amazing food the best we've had in France

Great value, amazing restaurant!

We called at dinner time and the host said they were full in very broken English. But we saw a room available on Booking.com so we went ahead and reserved online and drove out there. When we presented ourselves at the reception desk, we slowly came to the realization that the man who had answered the phone earlier was at that time single-handedly serving dinner five parties in the dining room! It was obvious the booking stressed him out, but he tried very hard not to show it and remained very polite. He found us a beautiful room and agreed to hold the kitchen open long enough for us to freshen up and come down for dinner. 
Entering that dining hall made me feel like I had truly arrived somewhere special; ancient vaulted ceiling, fireplace, views of the lake just outside through ivy-rimmed windows. The menu was great, the presentation was great, and although there was only one server, he did a perfect job attending to us and timing the courses.
Every inch of this property is well maintained and charming. It exudes personality and good taste. Five star property for a two star price.
We appreciated the electric kettle in the room as well as the bottle of brandy. Nice touch. Flowers out the window, quiet ...
The only disappointment was breakfast, which was strangely less than average. We couldn't find hot milk for our coffee and the manager didn't come around until we were already finished with our limited choices. 
The breakfast room mezzanine has been updated. It feels modern with a rustic touch. Well done. 
Be sure to take a walk up the road and look around!

Uniquely beautiful, old world charm, what feels like an isolated country villa only 20 minutes from center of Alencon

charming, quiet wonderful location and really really excellent food; the bedroom we had was very light and airy and extremely comfortable bed! The hotel welcomes dogs but they do need to be able to climb stairs!!

overnight stop

This countryside hotel is very well presented at the side of a lake.
Check in was efficient but not very smiley and we were showed to our room which was in the eaves of the building. The bed was very comfortable and there was a welcoming carafe of some local cherry aperitif which I suspect was homemade. The rest of it was a bit lacking in attention to detail./ By example the carpet did not quite meet the skirting. The bathroom wad a large beam a head height to get to the lavatory. The lavatory pan was  a very odd shade of graduated grey. The shower was up two steep and potentially slippery tiled steps. 
The dining room was very well appointed  but despite all the claims that the chef had numerous awards the food was very average. There was no choice on the table d'hote menu apart from take it or leave it.
Breakfast was in another room and also lacked interest
Would I go again. Probably not.


Quirky Hotel  with Great Views of a Lake

We have used this hotel twice as it is a great location when travelling from SW France back to the UK. The hotel is situated on the edge of a quiet village and is in a good position with a lovely lake and the ability to have a good off road walk prior to eating.

The lake side rooms are more comfortable and well appointed compared to the rear rooms but need a little attention. For instance the shower leaks so the water pressure is low and the temperature control doesn't appear to work resulting in a cool shower, not what you want on a cold autumn day. The towels are clean but small and there could be some more shampoo/shower wash.

The restaurant is a lovely room with a big fire and well laid tables. The food is quite old fashioned French cuisine and as very meat orientated. Fish/non meat dishes are available but they are not good, my wife left most of her expensive meal, shame.

With a few tweaks and attention to detail this would be a great hotel and restaurant. We hope to see improvements on future visits.

A bit of an improvement needed to make this a great stay

We booked this hotel specifically because it was stated to be dog friendly. On positive notes the setting is very attractive and the food excellent. Less good was the heat in our room admittedly on a very hot day but a fan would have been appreciated. We were however disturbed to see a notice in the room which stated that ideally they would prefer dogs to sleep in the car and that there would be a liability if they remained in the room. Also whilst we were able to eat outside it was also clear that we could not have taken the dog into the restaurant inside.....All in all making us feel uncomfortable, a pity because generally its nice hotel
