Hotel les Jardins de La Molignee

I enjoyed my stay for the weeend so much. The hotel was nice, clean with very good breakfast. Location is it not far from the city center. I liked the swimming pool,sauna and jacuzzi and the fitness room. Very kind staff, especially the receptionist Sahbi. We will come back, highly recommended

This hotel is suitable, but rather outdated. The bathroom was large, but a bit oddly arranged. It was nice to have a family room, with two separate beds for the kids, in another room, which was the reason that I booked at this hotel. Location might be considered a bit off the beaten path, but close to some nice towns.

The man at reception was very approachable and attentive, and spoke 4 languages! The room was nice and clean, air con worked well. We ate at the Brothers pub and grill next door. The food was delicious and reasonably priced.

I have just returned from a truly lovely stay at Hotel Les Jardins De La Molignee. I can see that other reviews are a little hit or miss but I'm glad to report that my stay was a total hit. Truly the staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly. I had heard that this area of Belgium was more French-speaking and although I can just about get by in French, I was a little worried about my language skills. I needn't have worried. The staff could easily switch languages and in fact seemed to enjoy speaking English with my friend and I (I still tried a bit of French though!). The hotel was a lovely size so it didn't feel too small nor did it feel too impersonal or large. It has around 50 rooms so a really great size. Our bedroom was a little larger than I had expected it to be and it seemed like it had recently been refurbished. The bathroom was really clean and lovely and it had a great powerful shower (choice of rain shower or normal shower). There was also some nice body and hair wash available plus slippers and lots of fresh towels. The beds were comfy and having air conditioning in the recent hot weather was literally perfect as we couldn't wait to get back to a nice cool room after our days out! The choices at breakfast were pretty impressive. Yoghurts, fruit, pancakes, waffles, some other hot choices, pastries, bread, cheeses, meats - various jams and sauces too - we were spoilt for choice! It was also an added bonus having the pool area - I enjoyed a quick dip while I was there. What's more I really did love the terraced area outside - a nice walled terrace area with terrapins in a pond and flowers - a great place to enjoy a late afternoon drink. Another thing to mention is that the hotel really is in a brilliant location. We wanted to do a lot of walking and we were arriving by train so did not have a car (though if you do have a car, the car park is really big). Yvoir station is perhaps a 15 minute walk (give or take 5 mins) and that links nicely with nearby Dinant and Namur for days out. We also made use of all the lovely walking routes (Ravel 150 and also the walks along the river). We walked over 9 miles each day. The rail bikes at Warnant (about a 30 min walk up the Ravel 150) were super-fun too! Above all I cannot thank the staff enough - every staff member I saw always greeted me with a friendly 'bonjour' and I felt a really valued customer. Big shout out to Alex and also the lady on reception who helped us a lot (I've forgotten her name already but she had curly dark hair with glasses and loved speaking English!). I am already looking for an excuse to return before too long as it felt like a home from home.

I really enjoy my stay. Nice room, breakfast, beautiful garden and an area with swimpool and sauna. Amazing terrace with drinks and aperitifs.

As usual I am writing this whilst I am here, so if you have read previous reviews you will know that is not good. Hard to work out where check in is, for a start, not very good signage. The reception staff are extremely lazy, hardly could bring themselves to even check us in, let alone stand up to greet us! No information or assistance given for lift to room. No introduction to the room, However, despite no assistance, we found ourselves in the room, amenities are sp****, particularly for the high price, bed is very firm. Another disappointment was lack of choice for dining out, as there is little competition or alternative! We had been told that this hotel was independent of the restaurant next door, they were very unhelpful in making a booking for dinner. Another reason it has affected out opinion of the hotel . We would never ever come back to this hotel, way to complacent and arrogant!

Don’t expect a good review here, because it is not going to happen! As usual I am writing this whilst I am here, so if you have read previous reviews you will know that is not good. Hard to work out where check in is, for a start. The reception staff are extremely lazy, hardly could bring themselves to even check us in. No introduction to the room , very little assistance, did not know where to go for lift. However, despite no assistance, we found ourselves in the room. But the main disappointment was the restaurant, as there is little competition or alternative! Terrible! We are totally offended, and it has affected out opinion of the Hotel Jardins de la Molignee. Never ever would we come back to this hotel or restaurant next door, way to complacent and arrogant!

I'd really like to give this one star extra, for the excellent service, but the room and general stay was not worth the high price. The swimming pool area was rather cold, jacuzzi wasn't working properly (and a bit dirty, but thats to be expected with the traffic + clothing). It was also VERY loud and wild (3+ full african families with about 10-15 unsupervised kids) but I can't fault the hotel for this to the full extend. The rooms were clean (bar some lonely spiders in the corners, its the season) and they were full renovated, no defects or dirty finish anywhere. But they were rather unimaginative, bland boring white walls, white ceiling, white tiles. We also had alot of noise up until 1am, thin walls, we heard alot of talking, laughing (some fighting) etc. So keep that in mind, bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper. Breakfast was good, 3 cold meats, saussages, bacon, eggs, yoghurt, cheeses and the default cereal, jam, etc. Breakfast room was absolutely packed to the brim though. That all being said, staff was very friendly and very helpful. I'd give them a 5/5 seperately!

The hotel was totally renovated. It really is nice and modern. Room was clean and comfortable, Breakfast was great with enough choices. Little mishap with the payment at the end otherwise it would have had 5 stars.
