Hôtel Le Grand Cerf

Charming establishment in a beautiful village. Unfortunately not restful : the bedroom mattress was beyond use some years ago, hotels response not very attentive.

We loved the location of this hotel, peaceful and quiet, and the staff were very friendly. The room was comfortable and roomy, but a bit rustic (perfectly comfortable and clean, but don't expect 4 star as this is a 3 star hotel). The bath was fabulous and big but there was no shower for our quick get away the morning we left. The spa was peaceful, we lounged and read our books there, but the pool and hot tub were on the cold side. The spa was a lovely layout for a chill put. Breakfasts were good and there were good quality foods on the buffet, including gooseberries. Ample parking but a bit of a walk to the rooms. We'd recommend this spot to others and would return

Lyons-la-Forêt is a very beautiful village, voted one of the most beautiful villages of France. L'Hotel Le Grand Cerf is located right in front of the main square with nice little restaurants. Our room Le Peuplier de Neige was very original in its decor but was facing the main road and noisy because of that but also because the walls were like cardboard and we could hear the words spoken from the room next to us. The beds were comfortable however. The breakfast was superb, highly recommended. ||The spa connected to it is beautiful but very small and the staff did not want us to taka a towel because they had a group of people coming and she wanted to keep the towels for them. Something not expected from a place that is supposed to be a bit higher class. There are a couple of Châteaux to visit nearby: Vascoeuil with sculptures and nice gardens, the Château de Mainville that is super interesting to visit and really beautiful.

Came in with a big group but was kindly directed to my room by attentive staff. The restaurant was top notch with a view onto the street and beautiful surroundings. Slept in extremely'quiet backroom loking onto garden. bedroom had disabled access and a huge shower room to accommodate this. The hotel has two buildings. The breakfast buffet was a bit on the light side but I enjoyed it too. Great service.

In a little village in a beautiful forest, this hotel is part of several establishments owned by the same people. Two hotels and three restaurants make up their offering. I say this because our stay spread across the two hotels and two restaurants! We stayed in rooms at Le Grand Cerf, had breakfast in the Licorne Hotel (100 m away) and ate dinner in a restaurant they called their lounge (200 m away). Everything was delightful, if quirky. Our room had beams and was very comfortable with a small but brilliantly designed shower room and separate toilet. Breakfast was taken in the Licorne Hotel and was delicious. A somewhat basic continental menu only and bizarrely the table was set with only small saucers to eat off. When asked for a plate, the staff curiously seemed reticent but eventually produced one! Just one! The village is medieval and is a gorgeous photogenic backdrop to a stay in this beautiful rural area. Do check opening times for establishments as many close on Mondays and Tuesdays and for lunch daily. Tucked away discretely in a side road by the post office on the edge of the village is a 2 post EV charger. Use the QR code to access.

The town is really picturesque, with the hotel just on f the main square. Rooms are well decorated with a really cool shower. The WiFi connection was poor and the room could have easily done with some glasses. The spa was pretty, though the sauna was on the cold side. Providing teas in the spa was a nice touch.

Such a great and comfortable hotel. Centrally located, clean, tidy and quiet at night. Great place to spend a night or two if you are passing the area and want to explore the local area. Spa accomodations also a nice bonus if you're looking to relax and unwind.

Very nice hotel. But no wardrobes or tea & coffee facilities in the room. The staff are very friendly and polite. Breakfast had a wide choice. You could have dinner elsewhere if desired. The food was cooked to order which was nice. Need to be fit as there are winding stairs up to the rooms.
