"Château de Courban is an elegant 19C mansion with a burnt sienna-coloured façade, looking out over its grounds. Preceded by a plush lounge with a crackling fireplace, the restaurant is housed in the property's converted barn, which boasts a beamed ceiling in the regional style, chandeliers and mirrors. In the manner of a skilled craftsman, the chef shapes his raw materials – excellent ingredients – into delicate seasonal dishes, the leitmotif of which is flavour: tomato confit and its three condiments; line-caught cod with sauce bonne femme; Racan pigeon, pigeon-foie gras sausage, cabbage and truffle jus. The meal is rounded off in fine style with pared-back desserts that are low in sugar. The wine list has a particularly good selection of champagnes and Burgundy labels." - Michelin Inspector

"An 1837 manor house set between Troyes, Dijon, and Chablis, is a fine exemplar of hospitality in the Burgundy wine country. Château de Courban & Spa Nuxe is devotedly historical in its exteriors and its public spaces, but it’s been subtly updated into a quite contemporary luxury hotel; rooms retain their period romance even amid modern amenities and decorative elements, while the spa is state-of-the-art. The grounds are magnificent, as is the pool deck, and the restaurant is, for many guests, the reason for the visit." - Tablet Hotels
