Having no prior travel to Europe, I felt the hotel, the owners, and the staff went out of their way to ensure our experience was superb. The cuisine was excellent, the rooms were clean, comfortable, and easily accessible. The owners helped us get local information about the region and the Verdun battlefields that we visited. They treated us like relatives from America and thru the use of a translation app, we could talk about our experiences. I believe that when I think of France, every experience will always be compared to my stay in the Hotel Orchidees since they have set the standard for hospitality.
