Book Retonval hotels

A really friendly hotel and a touch more comfortable than the other ones I've stayed in Forges Les Eaux. Friendly staff and a big room with views over the gardens to the back of the property

Very comfortable hotel with friendly staff

Great overnight stop. Lovely place,staff friendly and helpful-food amazing. Thank you. We will see you again.

We just spent the easter weekend there as a group of 9; 6 adults and 3 kids (aged 9 to 5). The property itself is beautiful and picturesque of a french villa. The added bonus of an indoor pool, with hot tub and sauna was why this place was a winner. The kids had soo much fun and there are plenty if games and toys for the kids too. One detail to mention is that the annexe part of the building is apparently for groups of 10. I opted to purchase this additionally once we got there as the bathroom/shower facilities to accommodate 6 adults was not suitable for us. The open bath in the upstairs bedroom was not practical for us, so the 4 adults in the main building shared the one bath shower in the downstairs room. The annexe was comfortable for me, my husband and 3 kids. The only let down here was the lack of hot water available. 2 of us showered one afternoon after swimming and we had no hot water after that and until we left the next day, so had to use the pool shower which is open. I informed Darina and she was very apologetic and couldn't understand why. My point here being that she was contactable and very helpful throughout our stay. She always responded to my messages and we had a few questions whilst there. I would highly recommend this for families that are able to share shower rooms. The garden is soo big and beautiful. All in all we had a great time here and created some wonderful memories. If you are thinking to book something that will keep the kids entertained, do it.

Easy stay in a charming little house. Good value for a 3 bedroom property. Interesting town. We just stayed one night but the house had everything needed for a longer self catering stay. Communication with the owner was easy with good recommendations for activities, restaurants etc.

Basically a nice hotel but a few details need attention: spacious room but heating totally inadequate and had to borrow an additional heater from reception. Room was very cold when we checked in. Need to ditch the paper cups in bathroom and replace with proper glasses. Lack of furniture in room and clothes storage space very limited. Why no wardrobe? Service in restaurant for New Year's Eve dinner was ridiculously slow. Meal took 3 hours! There's no excuse for this, especially as it was a set menu. On checkout, was charged for breakfast, which had to be removed from the bill as we did not have breakfast on any of the days which we stayed. This was because breakfast service was only between 8 - 10 am, far too early to stop serving when one is on holiday. These small but important details would prevent us from staying again, which is a shame as the hotel is potentially very pleasant and is in a convenient location.
