All that glitters unfortunately is not gold. Having pre booked and had the room rate deducted 3 months earlier, you would expect the check in procedure to be simple. Not at Hotel Clery. I stood in front of the check-in desk for 10 minutes while the hard pressed receptionist dealt with a very long telephone query. No acknowledgment or reassuring... more

This is a fabulous hotel for a delightful weekend break or a stopover during a longer trip. Superb staff, nothing is too much trouble. Fantastic food in a very elegant dining room. Lovely bedrooms (we had rooms on the first floor in the cottage which were beautiful, elegant and with lovely well equipped modern bathrooms. Had been shown a ground... more

What a great Hotel. We have had several lunches here as the food is wonderful but this was the first time we stayed. We were not disappointed. Got upgraded to a smashing room at the top with a fantastic view over the contryside. As it was sunny (last weekend in April) we were able to enjoy a bottle of wine... more

Really loved this hotel. I am a single mum with 3 small children and wanted a few days away in France. This hotel is in Boulogne and so the ferry from Dover went straight into this town. Its only about 10 minutes to hotel. The grounds are beautiful, the restaurant served fantastic food and the accomodation (in cottages beside the... more

Absolutely beautiful chateau with a wonderful restaurant. Our room was in the annex which was slightly disappointing - ask to be put in the main building - but the room was still lovely and we had a lovely garden view plsu a view of the chateau itself. Plenty of car parking, a lovely lounge to have drinks in before dinner... more

We have just returned from a weekend stay at this delightful hotel and would thoroughly recommend it. We stayed in a very pretty room overlooking the courtyard and our friends stayed in the cottage. Both rooms were very comfortable and our bathroom was lovely. The hotel has extensive grounds (maybe next time we'll upgrade to one of the rooms overlooking... more

My wife and I were looking for a hotel to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary, and we couldn’t have chosen better! The room we had was excellent, very spacious very clean and great view overlooking the garden. The food in the restaurant was of a very high standard of taste and presentation. The staff were very pleasant, welcoming and very... more

Hotel Clery is a French chateau, though more in the "country house" than "castle" style. Most of the rooms are outside the main house, either in a converted stable block or 1 of 2 new buildings close to the Chateau. These seem to house the "superior" rooms. The hotel advertises itself as 3* but in our experience scores as good... more

We were looking for a convenient stopover on our drive through to Charente and did not have particularly high expectations of Hotel Clery. We were very pleasantly surprised, however. The main building is an imposing, white manor house in impeccably kept, extensive gardens. The accommodation is either in the main building, in the adjoining ‘cottages’ or, as in our case,... more
