I have been staying at this hotel for over 30 years and it is still the best in the area, every room has its own appeal, staff and owner are all very freindly, and the food is of a very high standard. Food is not cheap but you get what you pay for and it is worth a go. Also... More

We happened upon this hotel and restaurant by chance whilst staying in Valenciennes on a christmas market tour. We did not book, but the restaurant soon filled up with locals. We were given a warm welcome, and shown to a table in the old stable. The restaurant is full of 17th centuary charm and even boasts an original cooking spit... More

Although we did not stay at the Coach House we did visit it for our evening meal whilst staying at nearby Le Domaine de La Frenaie. We were welcomed warmly by a young lady whose English was superb. We had a couple of drinks and were then taken into the restaurant which was formerly the stables. It oozed character and... More

Restaurant: food rustic - basic... More

My husband and I spent one night at this hotel on the way to the south of France. We were hungry and tired and could not find anywhere else to stay. The price of 140 Euro was more than we usually pay but we felt we deserved a treat. We had our dog with us and he cost an extra... More

None of the floors are flat, neither do the doors fit well in their holes, but this place oozes charm. Don't expect a modern luxury chain hotel, but go expecting quality touches in huge rooms with all necessary amenities. The staff were very friendly, efficient and accomodating. Park outside the front door and the staff will take the car to... More

Very sweet but old hotel in France. Very nice staff. Excellent restaurant (though quite pricey). Not-so-nice town but good stopover place. Overall very good experience and would go back to this hotel again for either stopover or meal.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Comfortably established after four hundred years of existence.All spruced up, it offers its Henry IV style, interpreted with regional inspiration in its proportions, harmoniously decorated in total respect for the region and its history.When Louis XIV made his “joyful return” to Valenciennes in August 1680, the Auberge was called “A la Ville de Troyes”. A souvenir of the great fairs of Champagne, with the travellers, salesmen and drapers stopping in our town to rest and restore their strength.in the hearth, there would be capons and haunches of meat roasting with a stew bubbling in fat jugs, swaying with the bawdy songs which barely covered the sounds of horses and their hooves on the round paving stones in the courtyard.The inn had a great reputation; Jacques Fontaine managed the establishment until 1701 and its successors’ were still roasting in the fireplace in 1789. ... more   less
