Château des Fines Roches

Is this place for real?
From the outside it’s epic. You drive up a hill through vineyards until you come to what looks like a well preserved castle.
You walk inside and it has all the charm of a castle-​themed swingers club for old people. Just kinda nasty. People whispering at each other in soft voices. Low grade furniture. Dark hallways and cracked floors. Bathtubs without showers.
We brought a bottle of wine with us. When we asked to borrow a corkscrew to open it, they looked all confused at us. «We only have one.» You’re a WINE THEMED HOTEL in one of the most globally recognized wine regions. To not have a corkscrew is like not having movies at a movie theatre.
For whatever reason at three in the morning, we heard all of the octogenarians in the hotel get up at once. Must have been time for their liver pills. The only reason we heard them was because the castle walls were paper thin.
I took my wife here to make her feel like a Princess. Little did I know that I’d end up looking like a Jester. There are much better places to stay. Avoid.

This was quite the experience. The château is located on a beautiful hill surrounded by vineyards so you get an amazing view. We stayed in one of the larger rooms and it def was super spacious even by American standards. Room was nicely decorated and bathroom looked new and modern. Our room overlooked the pool which we sadly didn’t get to spend much time in.
We ate at the restaurant one night and what a meal! Delicious! You can sit out in the patio for dinner and watch the sunset. Def bring some repellent however as the mosquitoes also got quite a meal out of me.
Not a single complaint can be made of this place. If you are in the CDP area, def stay here for a few nights!
