This hotel is rustic and charming. We were enroute between Florence and Paris and stopped here for the night. It was such a pleasant surprise! Our room, although simple, was immaculately clean and had sweeping views of sunset over the river. The little patio was the perfect spot to wait for dinner in The Old Farm’s original building.
Dinner was incredible! Delicious French country dinner at its finest! Impeccable service was offered by the staff which made our dinner in their beautiful floor-to-ceiling-windowed upper veranda a marvelous place to enjoy an early autumn evening.
Breakfast the next morning was equally delightful. We watched rowers practicing on the river over our coffee and perfect croissants. My husband's only complaint is that he ate too much. (He finished my dinner as well as his own - it was too good to waste!)
My only regret was that the weather did not allow us to enjoy their beautiful pool facility. If I lived in Paris, I’d be here as many weekends as possible. There are farm animals to enjoy.
Finally, La Vieille Ferme was an active member of the resistance during WWII. There is a plaque noting their commendation for contributions to that heroic effort. The place is inspiring. These walls have stories to tell. Go and Listen for yourself.
Great value! Attention has been paid to every detail.

Useful motel; great river view and good restaurant
Posted 30 Sep 2018
Pros: The river view, riverside path and dinner.
Cons: The breakfast.
Location: Get back on the autoroute and drive!
Great place to stop if you are in transit from the Alps to Calais, or vice versa. The place is basically a motel, just off the autoroute, but with a higher standard of cleanliness and comfort than you'd normally expect from a motel. Rooms are standard motel, chicken-coop size. What lifts it above the ordinary is a wonderful view of the Saone straight before you, and direct access to a walking/cycling path along the riverside. There's a good, if rather pricey, restaurant - you have the option of driving into Macon to try to find something better, but we were glad to eat here. Breakfast seemed to consist entirely of processed foods. Nice staff and management. Good wifi and hot water.

Small hotel attached to riverside restaurant
Posted 11 Jul 2018 on HotelsMotel style rooms attached to a restaurant by a motorway. There is a heritage mini-farm/petting zoo which our room overlooked which was nice. Room and bathroom were in great condition, bedding and linen all sparkling. Large entrance foyer inside the room's front door was ample to store any luggage (in our case easily accommodating 2 bicycles). Room had its own mini-terrace overlooking the farmlet and horse paddock. Swimming pool was very welcome on a hot day. For us this was the perfect stopoff on the Blue Route bike path down the river, as it sat right next to the path. We didn't use the bar and restaurant. Overall excellent value.

One night stay - - very close and convenient to town. Very spacious room with a nice river view. Very friendly staff and great breakfast. Too bad it was only one night.

Wonderful staff and beautiful river view
Posted 27 Mar 2017 on HotelsAbsolutely amazing staff!! Beautiful river view that makes you quickly forget you're next to the train rails! Found room is a bit small, but we were sharing it with a crib :) Had an amazing meal at the restaurant which is really nice night or day times. Definitely telling my friends and coming back!
