  Una gran casa

  La Gaichel pese a ser un pequeño hotel es una Gran casa! La familia Propietaria se e GM carga de velar por cada detalle. Las habitaciones son coquetas y decoradas con cariño. El restaurante con estrella Michelin es una delicia. Comimos un escalope de foie-Gras excepcional y un lomo de liebre. La carta de vinos es también espectacular. El hotel está rodeado de jardines preciosos y bien cuidados. Sin duda mi establecimiento favorito en Luxemburgo.

  Unusual, confusing and quirky. Keep an eye on the costs.

  This was an overnight stay on our way back to the channel ports. Not knowing how the place operates made this a little confusing. We reported to the hotel reception on arrival only to be told that we were in the wrong building and needed to check in at the restaurant next door. This appeared to be just a restaurant at first glance but when we managed to attract the attention of a very busy host we finally got our room keys. Rooms were adequate if a little cramped. No lift to the floors and an unwelcoming narrow staircase with dirty carpets. Having booked for dinner in advance we were then told that this would not be in the restaurant but in the hotel that we had just been rejected from. The "restaurant" appeared to be the more popular place that evening and we discovered why when we were given the menus in the "hotel". Prices started at around 75 Euros each for food but we decided we deserved a treat so went ahead with the experience. Having booked a table for 8pm we got our food at about 9:45pm having consumed a large number of aperitifs. Needless to say the bill the next morning was a sobering experience. Food was excellent and the service was highly polished silver. Worth researching prices and options beforehand.

  OK but plenty of room for improvement

  We booked to stay on two separate nights as we needed to be near Clairefontaine and La Gaichel is certainly the most convenient. Our room was on the 1st floor. There is no lift and the stairs are very steep and narrow. There was no one available to help with our luggage and getting the luggage to our room was quite an effort. We had booked some weeks in advance, but were told we had to take a room on the (noisy) road side, but we could take a more expensive room on the garden side away from the road (which we decided to do as the road has quite a lot of traffic through the night). We were told that we had not booked an evening meal and would have to wait until 20:30 (or later depending on when other guests were finished). We asked if we could not eat outside on the terrace and were told this was not possible. When we came later, however, to wait for a table to become free, we realized that the interior restaurant was almost empty as most of the guests were eating on the terrace which we had been told would not be available!! So we had to eat inside where we were more or less forgotten about and we had to go to the counter whenever we needed attention. Anyway the night was quite peaceful and the breakfast was good (although there was no English breakfast tea - only Early Gray). Our second night was quite different. This time we were allowed to eat on the terrace and we had a small room (with very small bathroom) facing the garden. The meal was fine and we went back fairly early to our rooms where we were able to sleep peacefully until about 3:30 - at which point a wedding group returned and decided to continue their party outside our room. This was of course not the fault of the management, but it should be noted that whichever room one choses (road or garden) there is no sonorisation whatever. So the rooms are only suitable for very heavy sleepers who ideally are deaf, who are fit enough to lug their luggage up to their rooms unaided and who are indifferent to whether they eat inside or on the terrace.

  20 years back in time --- a relief from all the extra-terrestial cooking

  In Auberge de la Gaichel it looks as if the time stood still for a while. You get in and this is a Brasseie as a Brasserie should be. The chef prepares food like a Brasserie should do it and not like this new bistronomy trend were you have to guess what you eat. The Trout (truite meunière) was ferfect and the vol au vent was simply how a vol au vent should be. Add a good wine list at reasonable prices and very friendly personnel that let you feel at home and you have a wonderfull experience And that is exactly what we had

  Avoid staying here if you are expecting courteous, helpful service!

  Unwelcoming, unhelpful, disinterested manager and staff. No space in restaurant - not advised to pre-book if we wanted to eat in at time of booking rooms. All other local restaurants fully booked but nothing offered by the auberge - shock horror if we'd suggested room service! We ended up with take-away pizzas in our room. Stairway steepish and narrow. Not easy to carry up bags to room. No offer of help. Receptionist keen to get back to her mobile phone call rather than help us. Room comfortable. Cramped ensuite. Would sleep in car rather than stay here again.
