Restaurant le Central

The welcome is perfect, from the managers to the employees, whether for the rooms or the excellent restaurant. Good advice on the region and even booking a guided boat trip on the marsh. The garden-side rooms are superb and typical, you feel at home there. Very quiet and relaxing. The staff is always attentive to respond to the slightest need and satisfy it as best as possible. You can feel in the team a spirit of cohesion and above all respect for the customer. You can feel the joy of the staff working in this establishment thanks to the respect that the managers give them and that they transmit remarkably to the customers. In August, the air conditioning in the rooms is a plus, especially since it is very quiet. In terms of catering, the chef works by highlighting local and seasonal products and adding a touch of exoticism that makes the whole very subtle and delicious. The welcome is simple and warm in the dining room, the customer is pampered while putting him at ease and the smile is required at all levels. An excellent memory for these few days spent at the Central. We keep the address preciously and will not hesitate to share it around us.

Nothing to report except the extra cheese at 12 euros for half board.

Top-notch welcome, friendly setting, kindness +++

What a joy to find smiling and business-minded people!! The hotel and restaurant staff are helpful and welcoming, and the management takes great care of you from arrival to departure. The restaurant is of exceptional quality.

Very friendly hotel and perfectly located for visiting the Marais Poitevin. The rooms are comfortable and well soundproofed. Parking is a plus during the high season. And the welcome is really very pleasant, thank you Marine!

Simple, clean and friendly hotel, competent staff, attentive and offering sound advice

Excellent hotel and excellent service with owners loving and passionated about their job.

A very nice discovery A very friendly welcome A place full of charm, authentic The only regret is not having been able to dine at the hotel restaurant because it was its closing day but we were well advised to find a restaurant

Very good stay, cozy hotel, well located. Charming welcome.

Je connais l’hotel Central depuis longtemps, et
je suis toujours heureux de revenir. Nous aimons bien les chambres du jardin, et surtout avec les renovations, notamment cette fois à la salle de bain. Nous avons toujours aimé les diners, et il nous semble qu’ils achèvent un niveau bien elevé pendant les années.

Disappointing and overpriced dinner quality!!

Very warm welcome! Small room with charm! Breakfast room and outdoor terrace for very pleasant dinner! Tasty experience menu for gourmets (more than gourmet because of the small portion) Parking is a plus!

The hotel as a whole is very nice, located in the beautiful village of Coulon. We arrived as a couple with a 2 and a half year old child. We called a little before our scheduled arrival time to let us know that we would be arriving late. The receptionist very professionally informed us that the reception closed at 7:30 p.m., the time the GPS had predicted. So far no problem, check-in went very well. Unfortunately, we had no hot water in the room, the reception being closed, no possibility of warning anyone. After a day of driving, no shower, with a toddler who requires special treatment on his skin, with a wash before each treatment, so nothing was done that evening. The next morning still the same, no hot water, I went to the reception, we were kindly offered to take the shower in another room but after the latter was vacated because the hotel was full, Whitsun weekend. We had booked an activity with our son at 10am so the timing was too tight. I went to reception to pay, around 11:15am, after our activity (10am-11am), we were charged 1 night plus 2 adult breakfasts and tourist taxes, I still asked if a small gesture was planned. I was told, oh yes sorry I'll offer you the child's breakfast!!! but what a breakfast, he had his bottle and I shared a piece of my croissant with him, that's all. That was the only commercial gesture we received, when the basis of taking a hotel room is to be able to wash after having traveled, to relax. I am a restaurateur in Paris, I sometimes don't understand the meanness of people to post negative reviews, but here I am obliged to do it, and I am sorry. the water outage is apparently recurring in this room, number 24, a little check before our arrival would have been welcome, but no, priority to the occupancy rate, shame

Very good stay, very welcoming staff. 8

Pure bliss! Very well-located hotel, very quiet and comfortable. Very good breakfast. Excellent restaurant. Lovely and attentive staff.

Excellent welcome, excellent cuisine, very pleasant room, beautiful general decoration and the staff is very helpful and attentive. We recommend this hotel.

A very warm welcome, perfect for family cyclists. Pleasant rooms. Excellent breakfast with homemade products (yogurts, compotes). And in a very cute little village, near the Sèvre Niortaise.

Very warm welcome, cozy room full of little touches, a very good quality table (restaurant), all for a reasonable budget, thank you very much for these two days. Oops, I almost forgot, a more than perfect breakfast where nothing was missing.

Particularly friendly welcome.

Highly recommended hotel: tastefully designed, spotless rooms, welcoming staff!

Very expensive for a small village like Coulon. The standard of the rooms is not up to the price. Radiant heating from the 70s in the bathroom, outdated hairdryer, non-adjustable shower head, supposedly king size bed, when it was 2 single beds pushed together that moved apart throughout the night.... Almost 100€ without breakfast... Disappointed

Perfect welcome! The staff were very attentive, and the owner was just as lovely. The quality of the food was exceptional, including breakfast, with a truly inspired and passionate chef. As part of my professional activity, I visit a lot of Logis de France (3 per week) and this one really stands out.

Perfect welcome, excellent food, very pleasant environment

Everything was perfect, the best overnight stay, with quality dinner and breakfast, it was a pleasure after a day of driving as a sales representative. Thank you.

A unique hotel with charming rooms. The restaurant is extremely delicious.

Very good stay. Looking forward to returning to the restaurant.

Warm welcome, the restaurant was closed, but I received a voucher to eat at a restaurant next door. A real coffee maker in the room and a kettle. Very comfortable bed and well decorated and clean room!

Very nice establishment, with neat decoration, very welcoming staff. Breakfast with fresh and homemade products, even the yogurts. The restaurant was unfortunately closed but the hotel works with a partner 200 m away where the quality of the meal is there

a pleasant stop to discover the Poitevin marsh

Welcome with a smile Very clean and comfortable room Evening stopover stay Too bad the restaurant was closed (holidays) As an emergency solution the local creperie (bad experience) Private parking

Very warm hotel in terms of welcome and decoration. Very good meal.

Very friendly welcome, spacious, comfortable and quiet room, good original cuisine, just one small downside, the lack of seasoning, great breakfast

Very nice hotel, warm welcome, pleasant setting and very nice room. And a good team I highly recommend

Top

Excellent table Accommodation good, but some things to check

Everything was perfect, reception, catering, room.

Excellent welcome from the moment we made the reservation, upon arrival and departure, regardless of who we dealt with. I therefore highly recommend stopping at the Central Hotel!

Impeccable! A very warm welcome and perfect bedding.

Great

This is a wonderful hotel very welcoming and warm. The rooms are clean and stylish. The beds are very comfortable. There is an extraordinary restaurant as part of the hotel and the food is quite spectacular. I found the service excellent and friendly. I would highly recommend this hotel and hopefully I will be able to get back.

Very warm welcome and excellent food. Evening stopover.

Very nice experience. A perfect welcome. Very good dinner.

I stayed 4 nights. The staff is very pleasant and attentive. The restaurant offers good menus. I have been coming to this hotel since 2017 and always have the same pleasure.

Excellent hotel in every way. In addition, the food is worthy of a starred restaurant.

Very good stay

Great, well received, excellent meal Thank you

Very nicely decorated hotel. Large room. Quality buffet breakfast.

Rapport qualité prix excellent et acceuil chaleureux

Very welcoming and friendly.
We have visited before.
We will be back.

After a warm and cheerful welcome we were accompanied to our rooms.

Very pleasant welcome and service from all the people we met; clean and spacious room, decorated with furniture that was both functional and complete, and also provided with good bedding, all in a warm and soothing setting/decor; evening meal stopover just as enjoyable.

Very good welcome, comfortable hotel

Pleasant and friendly welcome. Comfortable and cozy hotel. Restaurant with a very high quality welcome, service and cuisine. We recommend this establishment.

Well located hotel. Parking available but at an exorbitant rate. The breakfast buffet is invariably the same over the days, which is boring if you stay several days. The hotel restaurant has a good reputation (gastronomic). Too bad that the

Great place to stay, superb restaurant

Very warm welcome in a typical village of the Poitevin marsh.

Very pleasant stopover in this charming hotel that we already knew. Our host is really charming and professional. Impeccable cleanliness. We had a great evening, we will come back!

Very warm welcome and very good services.

A real pleasure to be back at the Central. Everything is perfect, I highly recommend.

We were very happy with the service all round! Dinner was excellent and the staff were very good

very pleasant rooms, we also had dinner on site with lots of flavors and very attentive and friendly staff and owners

Excellent welcome Perfect room and tasty cuisine I recommend and will return with pleasure

Very warm welcome, very charming, pretty, very beautiful room, perfect breakfast. Thank you very much, we will come back. Restaurant next time 😁😁😁😁👌👌👍👍😘

Very decent hotel, but a bit noisy in the morning because the room is close to the breakfast room. The restaurant is very good.

Excellent stay in a remarkable setting and a warm welcome!

Very pleasant hotel, run by charming pepole in a characterful little town

Excellent welcome .. Availability … Wise advice. Quality of the hotel and successful services. We highly recommend

Very nice hotel in the heart of the Poitevin marsh

Pleasant welcome and search for a solution to satisfy our particular wishes. Breakfast could be improved

Fantastisch

A real favorite. Bravo to all the staff of the hotel and the restaurant. A superb stay thanks to the whole team. Competence, dynamism, permanent smile. Thank you!

great value for money, very good restaurant, very pleasant staff

Welcome, service, room, dinner (the very original and delicious meal) and breakfast, everything was perfectly exceptional 😊

Welcome, services, kindness, quality...everything is perfect! A warm and available team, we can't wait to come back.

Very well located hotel

Hotel well located in the Poitevin marshes near the pier. Pleasant welcome and attentive receptionist. Well-equipped room and comfortable bedding. Very complete breakfast that we had on the terrace. Private parking available.

Comfortable room but a little dated. Hotel noise which is normal for a hotel of this age.

Excellent location and quiet air conditioned rooms. The owners greeted us on arrival and were attentive and friendly during the stay. We will very be returning

Very warm welcome. Excellent restaurant

Very nice hotel, very comfortable bed. Small garden, different places to have a varied, quality breakfast!

Very warm welcome Great restaurant

Very friendly / helpful staff and new owner. Fluent in English. Room and public spaces were tasteful. The evening meal we had in restaurant was one of the best we have ever had. Parking was very convenient. Location in Coulon off main square was perfect for visiting the beautifully picturesque area of green Venice ( Marias Poitevin)

The hotel is beautifully situated, the room was perfect, it could have been wonderful, sadly the entire team, especially the lady running the hotel were so unwelcoming, unhelpful and really relatively rude. No recommendations given when asked, rude in French about us not having breakfast (we didn’t want a buffet, just a coffee and croissant). Retro, but charming decor. I would recommend the hotel for location and room, but don’t expect a friendly welcome.

Very comfortable. Good food.

Great hotel and restaurant

A return trip for us. Just as good with the service outstanding.

We wanted to visit the Poitevin marshes and the Le Central hotel was the best choice, we did not regret it, on the contrary we are delighted

An excellent hotel, an excellent restaurant, a superb location... nothing but good!

Stunning!

3rd stay in the evening, I am still under the spell of this little corner in Deux Sèvres, I recommend

Good stopover in this quiet and tasteful hotel.

Beautiful hotel and restaurant, very tasteful decoration, excellent dinner on the outdoor terrace and very pleasant, attentive staff.

Some points of detail: The door handles in the bathroom are very difficult to handle, especially the one in the toilet.

Excellent welcome, very comfortable room, varied breakfast

Lots of charm for this establishment very well located in the center of Coulon. Very welcoming staff. Comfort of the room, bedding. Beautiful decor throughout the hotel. Excellent restaurant with good value for money. Maison des Marais and piers accessible in 2 minutes on foot.

Very well decorated and clean room, quiet and welcoming, well located in town, perfect for this short stay.

Second stay at this hotel. Always satisfied.

Real pros in restaurants and hotels

Love the hotel and the village, very relaxing

Very good hotel, great services and efficient and attentive team. Perfect catering, excellent value for money. Hearty breakfast in a pretty room.

Beautiful establishment, well located, with private parking. Everything is clean and neat. The restaurant, open primarily to residents, was a very pleasant surprise: tasty cuisine, original and balanced dishes, efficient service. I highly recommend!

We always love coming here on our trip from the south of France to Normandy. A beautiful town set in glorious countryside. The hotel is central so good for a stroll atound town and close to all amenities. We were in a garden room which is at the rear of the hoyel and therefore quiet. The rooms are modern and clean with a terrace or balcony. The garden is small but very well maintained. The private car park is close
by and secure. The restaurant is beautifull and of high quality. Make surd you book a table in advance. They allow dogs in the hotel rooms.

Excellent experience for both the hotel and the restaurant. Friendly and competent staff. In short, a very good stay in a hotel to recommend to people wishing to visit the Marais Poitevin. The meals taken in the restaurant will leave a very good memory, it is a shame that it was closed for two days. Just a small remark for access to the parking lot, which is a little tight for large vehicles, and some furniture in the room which could benefit from a new adjustment.

Charming hotel Restaurant with original dishes

For the breakfast buffet, regional cheeses would be a plus (vacuum-packed Emmental or Saint Moret in a tray without saber!)

The hotel is very well located and not far from the landing stage

we have stayed a few times at le Central and have never had any major issues. we had a garden facing upstairs room this time and we reported that the water in sink and toilet were not running very well. Apart from that, no complaints and we would happily stay there again.

Very nice home.

Hello, it starts with an excellent welcome, a very well-kept place, very comfortable and well-equipped rooms. The breakfast staff, very professional, I recommend this establishment. A very nice hotel. THANKS

Well located hotel Comfortable bedding Very complete breakfast Excellent table, congratulations to the chef with very good value for money

Very pleasant charming hotel

Very pleasant stay, like every year: friendly welcome, excellent meal, very comfortable room decorated with great taste

Very good address where we will return without hesitation

Professional and friendly welcome. Impeccable cleanliness, excellent breakfast and dinner. Very good value for money. A stop that deserves to linger longer! We hope to return soon.

Pleasant, clean and above all very good food!

Quality hotel, very well renovated, very clean, very professional, quiet, with a gourmet restaurant An address to have even if it means traveling a few more kilometers Professional staff, at your disposal and at your disposal. Address not to be missed for a fair price. Respect.

Very good Friendly welcome, good quality catering

Great welcome Delicious restaurant Impeccable room A very beautiful place

A gem of the hotel and restaurant industry in the Niort region, with an incomparable quality/price ratio. It is always an immense pleasure and a look forward to returning to this establishment where the welcome and kindness of Mrs. and Mrs. Guénenten, as well as their colleagues, are incomparable. Thank you again and congratulations for everything you do for your customers, you deserve much more than recognition.

Charming hotel, the rooms are very beautiful and comfortable and well decorated Tasty meals Very pleasant welcome

EXCELLENT STAY. MAGNIFICENT ESTABLISHMENT TO RECOMMEND

We love this hotel. Friendly, comfortable and excellent food. Our third visit. Coulon is a lovely old village.

Lovely hotel in a very pretty village. Very happy the restaurant was open and dinner was excellent. Breakfast was very good too.

Everything is perfect 👍

Change nothing.

As regular visitors to this establishment, we are always delighted with the quality provided to us: welcome, cleanliness, comfort, decor, breakfasts, dinners. We feel really good there. For a reasonable cost. We sincerely recommend!

Very pleasant service and friendly staff. Room very spacious and very neat. It was a bit chilly upon arrival in the room. Bathroom was generally very clean. There only seemed to be a mold problem between the tiles in the bathroom. Probably moisture problem. The room was really spotless and looked almost new. Delicious food in the restaurant and also breakfast.

A very good address

I use this hotel restaurant during my professional evening stopover trips. Each time I come, I am delighted by the quality of the catering.

Warm welcome, rooms large enough and tastefully decorated. High quality restaurant.

Hotel offering a very wide range of services. Very nice home. The quality/price ratio of the restaurant is excellent.

We had a very comfortable room on the courtyard, food was very good, friendly reception and staff

Very good hotel for a business trip, avoid room number 6 because there is a staircase to go up to the room after the front door, it is cumbersome with suitcases.

Excellent establishment with good value for money Very good cuisine Pleasant staff

Very nice hotel with private parking

Excellent address. Both for the accommodation and for the excellent cuisine. Congratulations

5 excellent evenings. I would like to point out a very warm welcome from all the staff Very good table

The only downside is that, at least in summer, consider covering breakfast foods (especially jam) to avoid an invasion of wasps!

Beautiful establishment in the heart of Coulon. Beautiful spacious room, perfect service, and very good restaurant. Small downside, the breakfast is not up to par with the rest. Stale pastries, stale juice, barely fresh egg, very average choice of cheese in plastic for a hotel of this quality.

Gastronomic restaurant

Poor - No access to Hotel or car park until 1630 and The restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday. As against that the Hotel receptionist offered a warm greeting and couldnt have been more helpful..... 10 out of 10 for staff 5 out of 10 for facilities.
