A little bit out of date style wise and amenities wise but an amazing building with amazing historic feel. Staff were incredibly helpful. fantastic pool and gardens.

Medieval monastery converted to a beautiful hotel with loads of character and charm. Lovely grounds surrounding the hotel were ideal for afternoon picnics or reading under the shade of the massive pine trees. Great restaurant in-house with locally sourced menu. Every detail was perfect and the staff were brilliant. The surrounding Gorges du Tarn and Gorge de la Jonte were absolutely astounding. Great base for exploring the Cevennes.

The hotel is set in a historically old French chateau. It has a very lived in, old-world charm and its mild eccentricity was appealing. The hotel grounds are spacious and beautiful and I had a room which, once reached up the steepish backstairs, was large, very comfortable and well equipped. The food was very good and the staff friendly.

Can highly recommend pool, ambience, reception, courtesy of staff. Breakfast needs a little updating to be in line with dinner standard. However I would return despite the enjoyable but pricey evening meal.

We had a lovely time. The hotel rooms were typical French shabby chic, it was perfectly located for us - out of the town, quiet with plenty of space to walk our dogs. The landscape around was breathtaking with plenty of activities available. The little holiday town was perfect - had everything you needed I Mc using a choice of restaurants to suit all budgets and was quaintly attractive. The hotel restaurant was very good and not expensive, breakfast average. The Indoor pool was lovely, new, clean and warm. The outdoor pool wasn’t open as it was not warm enough at the time we went and it was being renovated. The only real negative was despite advertising free wifi throughout the hotel reality was it rally was only accessible in the public rooms. The staff were very accommodating so that we could watch the Grand Prix on the tv in one of the public rooms.

The place is beautiful but the food and service at the restaurant are poor which is very hard to find in this region Reception is inefficient

Cute place in interesting style. We loved the salons downstairs.

Loved the quaint converted monastery that was Chateau d'Ayres. After a stressful drive (not realising how scary the drive to the Chateau would be for someone who is scared of heights) we relaxed in the lovely pool during the July heat wave. The rooms were quaint (the bed head upholstery matched the wallpaper!!) with a big king size bed, but no fan or air conditioning. This was no particularly a problem, even in the middle of the heat wave, as the Chateau kept itself cool. The bathroom was large. The restaurant was AMAZING and I definitely recommend it.

The hotel is off the beaten track but is definitely worth finding. The staff are delightful, the restaurant is lovely and the grounds are very peaceful with the only noise we could hear being cow bells or birds.

Charming old building, quaintly appointed. Recently-built indoor pool a sound investment but is a consistent 5 feet deep and has no gulley around the edge to hang on to, off-putting for nervous bathers or short people. Staff helpful, when they can be found.

We spent four days in the Gorge du Tarn and spent two nights in the Chateau D'Ayres. We were very disappointing in the accommodations. The rooms were clean, but very shabby. There were threadbare carpets and chairs throughout the hotel. In general, the place had the aura of an inn that was once great, but now had fallen on harder times and was in a state of disrepair. Also I would not recommend eating in the restaurant. Breakfast was massively overpriced for the quality. At least, the staff were generally courteous. Overall, this hotel does not deserve 4 stars. We were much happier in a smaller hotel in Peyreleau that was superior on basically all dimensions while also being cheaper. It was also in an old historic building, but every aspect of it was nicer and it included an excellent breakfast. If you come to the Gorge to climb, hike, or canoe, I would recommend staying closer as well.

Hi - we wanted to stay 2 nights, but had to leave because we couldn't get Internet access. Disappointed! It looked really interesting, and dinner was excellent - but the lazy holiday was cut short because the internet access in hotels in that area was down. A shame - we wanted to stay!

A charming Chateau in a peaceful location. Food was excellent.

Grounds were slightly unkempt. Staff were polite but not friendly. The food was a bit overpriced. Overall we were satisfied with our stay.

Really enjoyed our stay. Thought the Chateau was in good condition considering we were staying in a 7th century building even though it had been knocked down and reconstructed quite a few times! The meal in the Restaurant was superb and one of the best we have had In France! Service was a little slow but we just enjoyed the ambience and in fairness they were very busy as the chateau was full!

Une fois n’est pas coutume, on a réservé notre séjour le jour du départ. On a eu une demande spéciale à adresser au château, qui nous a assuré tout de suite qu’elle allait pouvoir être satisfaite. Sur place, on a été ravis dès les premières secondes. Le château est très beau, bien entretenu, émanant une ambiance fidèle à l’époque lointaine qu’il reflète. Un voyage dans le temps garanti ! Le personnel est tout simplement adorable, que ce soit les réceptionnistes-serveurs ou la belle-sœur du propriétaire, ou encore le propriétaire lui-même ! Petit-déjeuner copieux et dîner savoureux. On a bien profité également de la piscine avec nos deux bébés. Une expérience féerique, que l’on a bien envie de réitérer !

Cadre et charme.

Léa nous a particulièrement bien reçu et elle a fait tout le nécessaire pour rendre notre séjour agréable.

C'est agréable d'être au Château d'Ayres. Mais on ne se sent pas dans un 4 étoiles et le rapport qualité/prix n'est pas au rendez-vous.

Den interne del af hotellet var ok. Værelset var fint, men opholdet levede ikke op til prisen. Den externe del af hotellet, parken og havemøbler trængte voldsomt til en gang vedligehold. Køkkenets aftensmad var ok men meget fantasi forladt, nærmest på niveau med et brasseri.
