Auberge le Renard'Eau in Bèze

"Visited this restaurant for lunch with my family to celebrate my mum’s birthday. We were a group of 5 adults and 5 children and the service and food were both fantastic. The menu had a good range of dishes to suit everyone’s taste. The food came quickly and our server was very good, she also spoke English which was helpful for us. The interior was quintessentially French and despite some steps the staff without hesitation offered for my mum to access our table via the kitchen as she has difficulty walking. A fantastic restaurant and a lovely meal, thank you!"

"Cozy hotel, with great food. And there is fire place inside"

"We stayed here as a stopover on the way down to the Ardeche. In terms of a stopover it worked perfectly, a good distance down from Rotterdam and not far off the motorway. The village is beautiful and well worth a stroll around. There are three restaurants and a pizzeria in the village, though the pizzeria was closed when we visited so don’t rely on it! The hotel itself is very quaint, there is parking opposite next to the church. Our room was big, it didn’t have Ac and was a little stuffy, though the window opened fully and there was a fan. The best thing about the room was the mezzanine floor. My son loved it! Another plus was the price, I think we paid about 70 euros for a four person room without breakfast. On the downside, the toilet didn’t flush and the shower was a little below par in terms of cleaning. After finding out the pizzeria was closed we ate at the restaurant at the hotel. Personally I thought the portions were small and the food was very average, but then I do have a big appetite. All in all, you get what you pay for and it was a far better experience than a motorway motel."

"Back in time, beautiful entourage. Central fireplaces (!) with live preparation of maincourses for diner. Several nostalgic diningrooms, old (wood covered) rooms with characteristic details and ornaments. Marvellous old village.."

"Great authentic place to stay. Beautiful little city to visit. Experiences 2018 : Staff could be trained for more professional hospitality way of working."

"This auberge is situated in the quaint medieval town of Bèze owning its name to the river that runs through it. It is a picturesque village with natural caves, a monastery with beautiful gardens and nice pit stop on the way to Southern France. As I understood the auberge was recently taken over by new management. We arrived somewhat late and hungry. With the kitchen closed, a plate with charcuterie and some wine was arranged and brought to our rooms by the friendly staff. A very atmospheric place to stay in that is centuries old. The rooms were well kept and bathrooms clean. The beds were not very comfortable however. Breakfast was taken on the outside terrace with plenty of fresh croissants."

"Fantastic hotel, lovely, friendly staff, great entertainment the night we went, apparently on the first Saturday every month. Food was exceptional....we will return!"

"Loved it! Lovely 17th c. building of character. Lovely staff, excellent food and wine. The church bells made sure we didn't lie in!"
