Chateau De La Resle - Design Hotels Montigny-la-Resle

Review by hotel critic

Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Burgundy, Château de la Resle is an enchanting retreat that seamlessly blends historical charm with contemporary art. My recent romantic escape here was nothing short of magical; the striking Georgian façade paired with modern design elements creates an atmosphere that feels both timeless and fresh. From the moment we arrived, the warm welcome from Johan and Pieter made us feel like cherished guests rather than just visitors. The outstanding service extended to thoughtful suggestions for local attractions and scenic routes that enriched our short stay. The spacious suite, complete with stunning views over the sprawling grounds, was a true haven – especially after a day spent exploring the rich culture of the Chablis region. The culinary experience was another highlight, with gourmet dinners that showcased seasonal ingredients and exceptional flavors. I must commend the chef for the delectable main courses, such as oven-grilled trout paired with pine nuts and a delightful Vichyssoise – a feast that left us raving about our dining experience. Each meal was complemented by beautifully curated surroundings, accentuated by a striking art collection that added an air of sophistication to our evenings. Though the isolation of the location might seem daunting to some, I found it to be a blessing in disguise, allowing me to indulge fully in the serenity of the chateau and its breathtaking pool area reminiscent of southern European destinations. Château de la Resle is a quintessential blend of art, elegance, and relaxation – the perfect escape for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
