The rooms are huge, each is different and very fancy: she'll be happy to give you the tour. The dining room is elegant. I ate the most elegantly presented breakfast ever, and Stéphanie pulled out all the stops. It was delicious, in quaint surroundings, and a music box played whilst I spread jam on my croissants. There are lots of amazing little touches here. It's not cheap, but it's gorgeous countryside luxury. They book the whole place out for weddings and other events.

The design and furnishings are so well thought out and the attention to detail is flawless and makes us feel welcome at every turn. Everything is spotless and clean. The breakfasts were wonderful as well as Celine's friendliness and good cheer and recommendations for things to do and restaurants to dine. The location is ideal; just down the street from the cathedral and a short walk to the restaurant zone and train station. With just four rooms and a stunning garden, the inn is quiet and street noise minimal.

Let's say you have always wanted to visit Champagne, but you don't know much about the area. That's…read morepotentially problematic, because the producers are spread out all over the place, and Champagne's a rural place. On top of that, let's say you don't speak French all that well -that makes it tough to make appointments with the folks making the champagne, right? And maybe on top of that, you know that there are 5000 producers in Champagne, but you only know of a few, and could really use some recommendations, especially when it comes to the increasingly popular "grower champagnes." So, you need somebody who: 1) speaks French and English, and is glad to make appointments for you with champagne houses; 2) is enthusiastic about and has expertise in the region and the bubbly; 3) has connections and contacts in the area, and is willing to use those connections on your behalf. While you're at it, ideally you'd be in clean, quiet, friendly lodging with dining options, close to the major cities Reims and Epernay, but at the same time close to the growers and their Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. Free WiFi would be good too, right? Sounds impossible, right? Well, this is just par for the course with Jiles & Yvonne Halling, the husband and wife team that own and run Les Molyneux. Jiles is a retired former Brand Manager for Moet et Chandon. He has written a couple of great books on champagne, and what he doesn't know about champagne isn't worth knowing...but he shares this knowledge in a self-effacing, endearingly humble way without the slightest pretension. Yvonne is a perfect hostess; genuinely warm, sincere and friendly while being thoroughly meticulous and organized at the same time. Together, they are your dream team in Champagne. This is a B&B, so you don't have the same amenities as a hotel -no TV, no spa...but the B&B has been lovingly restored and the rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and charming. At any rate, the Hallings themselves are the amenity. Chat with Jiles about Champagne. Let Yvonne cook for you and share information about the villages with you. Put yourself in their hands and let them put together a perfect itinerary for you in Champagne. If you're a wine geek like me, it might just be the trip of a lifetime for you.

I just stayed here for four nights, and I had an absolutely wonderful experience. Michele and Frans…read moreare excellent cooks and they made four amazing dinners for our group of 16, as well as providing a continental breakfast every day with fresh fried eggs (I think they might come from the chickens that are roaming around the property). The chateau has a nice casual feel. It feels more on the original end of the spectrum instead of being restored to the max, but I actually preferred this, because it felt comfortable and you can feel the history of the place. We had fires in the fireplace every night and they kept the firewood well stocked. The beds were extremely comfortable, with good linens and duvets, and I think that matters most for the comfort of my stay. I would absolutely return here.
