Breakfast
However, there were consistent remarks regarding the value for money. Many felt that for a price tag of €15 per person, the offerings were rather sparse and not as extensive as expected. Some guests mentioned the breakfast was meager, basic and lacking in variety. Issues such as damaged fruits, cold coffee and no availability of eggs or vegetables were noted. Additionally, the organization could be improved to make the breakfast more enjoyable.
Despite these concerns, it seems the core quality of the breakfast was generally good with friendly service completing the experience for many guests. There were instances where the breakfast exceeded expectations, but overall, enhancing the variety and quantity while ensuring the price reflects the offerings could improve guests' satisfaction.
Dinner
For those looking for a more substantial dining experience, the staff at Château de la Berchère provide excellent recommendations and can make reservations at nearby restaurants. Guests have appreciated the convenience and quality of the external dining options, particularly in nearby areas like Vosne-Romanée and Nuits St Georges, where the reserved spots have been noted for their good price, quality and friendly service.
The breakfast service at the hotel, though basic, offers a good start to the day. It's worth noting that to dine on-site, advance planning might be necessary to secure reservations as there is no formal restaurant within the château. Despite this, the overall dining experience, whether on-site or nearby, is quite pleasant, thanks to the attentive and helpful staff.
Rooms
Some visitors appreciated the privacy offered by the cottages, which complemented the quiet ambiance of the castle. Despite the lack of a restaurant on-site, the staff's hospitality shone through with offerings like a delicious cold platter served on the terrace. The overall charm of the historic structure adds a unique flavor, though certain areas feel outdated and could benefit from refurbishment. Comfort levels varied with some rooms described as basic or even musty and issues such as insufficient heating or noisy surroundings were occasionally mentioned. However, the spacious suite offerings and the stunning setting of the castle make Château de la Berchère a compelling choice for those seeking a rustic getaway with a touch of elegance. Overall, the hotel's blend of charm and history, coupled with friendly service, provides a memorable and distinctly French experience.
Beds
However, there were a few critiques. Some guests felt the beds could be better, mentioning the discomfort of hard mattresses, smaller beds and instances of the bed being crooked or having a mattress that was too soft and sloped at the edge. Despite these isolated issues, the overall consensus indicates that guests generally find the beds at Château de la Berchère to be a restful and pleasant aspect of their stay.
Cleanliness
Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful staff, contributing to the welcoming atmosphere of the chateau. Clean rooms further ensure a pleasant stay with many visitors finding everything very clean and up to the latest standards.
While the overall cleanliness and maintenance earn favorable remarks, some areas still need attention. Issues such as cobwebs, dusty curtains and musty odors in some rooms suggest the cleaning is sometimes superficial. Additionally, occasional problems with room servicing, like uncleaned rooms or non-functional showers, detract from the otherwise positive experience.
Despite these minor setbacks, the setting, pool, geographical location, breakfast and general ambiance of Château de la Berchère continue to appeal to guests looking for an enchanting getaway.

Wi-Fi
However, many visitors noted significant limitations. Several guests reported no WiFi in their rooms or in the tower section with the internet speed deemed poor by some. Others mentioned that the WiFi didn't reach their rooms and in cases where it did, the connection was weak or non-functional even when close to a router. There were also mentions of discrepancies between what was advertised online and the actual availability of WiFi with some guests unable to access it at all.
