The hotel was beautiful. We arrived at 16:00, quickly checked in and took a stroll in the town. The night views of the hotel is fantastic. We had a comfortable stay. I had requested for charging for my EV, and it was possible to do it during the night.

The Highlight of Our Trip to Provence
Stunning and historic property with attention to detail and attentive staff. We enjoyed dinner at their bistro which was lovely and a nice walk just outside of town. Breakfast was the highlight of the stay with an incredible spread, even champagne, to be enjoyed in the garden. We booked last minute as we were driving through Provence and the stay was the highlight of our trip.
We will be back

Friendly, welcoming, and quick service; simple but effective dishes; I removed one star for the insufficiently maintained toilets.
Very warm welcome - Quiet environment Half-board stay: Excellent dinner and breakfast
Room very good, clean and comfortable Top restaurant thanks to Maël who was very helpful, smiling and professional Thanks to him because when we are made to believe that we are going to have the best table and that we are at the bottom, it was far from won Thanks to him I recommend
Delicious 😋 meal with excellent service 🫶🏼🙏🏼Nicest view on Grignan castle 🏰🇨🇵🇨🇵Douce France
A veritable festival of flavors without a single false note, wonderfully well orchestrated by charming staff: an enchanting interlude.
Superb restaurant. The place is magical in the heart of Grignan. The food and the setting are extraordinary. The service is friendly and efficient. We had a wonderful time there.
A delicious experience, refined cuisine, and remarkable service. Everything was perfect, thank you very much for your work.
While the meal itself was very good, the welcome and service were deplorable! We had reserved a table for Sunday lunch on our wedding anniversary (mentioned several times during the reservation), but the welcome was simply awful!!! After being moved to a different table just minutes after we were seated (why??? a mystery...), the aperitif options were announced very curtly, as if we were "stupid." Indeed, I quote the waitress's response after I asked her about the cocktail's ingredients: "I'm telling you right now, Madam!!!"... Okay, sorry for asking 😡. At the same time, please be clearer, because it was incomprehensible, thank you! Right after the starter, one of the waiters asked my husband in a haughty tone if he would like a glass of red wine to accompany his meal, which he accepted. However, he only came back to bring it...at DESSERT TIME, so it was completely pointless! We saw him wandering around the neighboring tables for several minutes, waiting for him to bring it back. It made you wonder if he'd simply forgotten about us. Then he came back and said, "I was late bringing it to you." Oh, right... Given his attitude, we told him he could take it back, which he didn't appreciate. Oh well! (Normally, we would have accepted it without any problem). Finally, when the bill arrived, we almost paid twice for the meal we'd already paid for in advance (because it was included with our hotel stay at "Clair de la Plume"), and no apology was offered. We got a real dressing-down from the manager, as if we were the ones at fault! I don't understand this haughty behavior from the staff, which we experienced from beginning to end. Perhaps it was because we were the only ones in the restaurant dressed appropriately for this type of establishment? And yes, no shorts, jeans, flip-flops, or sneakers for us, sorry... At the same time, you're a fine-dining restaurant, and it was (I repeat) our wedding anniversary. Furthermore, this wasn't even acknowledged by the establishment (not even a simple "congratulations" or "happy anniversary"). At the same time, I'm not surprised anymore...Lol! We had already been here three years ago, and it was very good, but this time, we are very, very disappointed, and we won't be coming back!
I am very happy and satisfied, I highly recommend
Excellent restaurant in a perfect location. Very efficient and impeccable service. I highly recommend it.
A very nice experience, spacious room, impeccable service, the pool was much appreciated in this heat.
Hello, we've been fans of La Ferme Chapouton for a very long time; it's always a wonderful place. We had a fantastic time. We're never disappointed. The welcome, service, and meal were perfect. Chic yet relaxed. The most beautiful place in the Drôme. Have a good day.
A magical moment at Clair de la Plume. An absolutely perfect six-course dinner, full of finesse and precision. The service is top-notch: professional, attentive, but without fuss. The food and wine pairings were perfect. And as a bonus, the chef stopped by at the end of the meal to exchange a few words—a simple gesture that really made a difference. A truly blissful interlude for two. We'll definitely be back. The hotel is also very nice, with a pleasant pool and a great bistro!
Very welcoming. We ate very well.
Amazing ice cream, a relaxing shaded terrace, a very pleasant, refreshing break
Very nice establishment with friendly staff. The manager who checked us out was charming, but I think it was the slightly older head waiter who was very rude and spoke very rudely to the waiters... Customers and colleagues are not dogs.
Lunch in the cellar. Excellent butcher's cut, very good advice on wine pairing. Dogs are welcome. Highly recommended.
A wonderful birthday evening with my daughter in this fabulous restaurant. A perfect dinner overlooking the castle. The service was truly outstanding thanks to the wonderful staff. As for the food, we thoroughly enjoyed everything from the cocktails to the dessert. Thank you to the entire team.
Quentin made our moment magical, we were 17 people a little too noisy and we were welcomed in the best possible way, a big hello from the 17 Belgians and very good memories
An incredible view, attentive staff, lush vegetation, excellent food, a remarkably efficient establishment! We will definitely return.
Having stayed at the Hotel Le Clair de la Plume, I was delighted to discover their boutique with a wide selection of typical regional products. The saleswoman is incredibly kind, well-traveled, and passionate about her region. Don't hesitate to ask her any questions to better experience Grignan and its surroundings. I would like to thank the saleswoman for her professionalism and dedication to her boutique. Hats off!
A taste journey to discover Being guided step by step without knowing the dishes was a new experience that I loved. I was won over by each dish and the care taken in both the appearance and the taste.
Restaurant voucher offered as a gift, a once-in-a-lifetime experience... We loved it (but I don't feel in my element, it's just a personal matter!)
Beautiful room in a replacement centered in the village
We had an absolutely beautiful time here. The location is idyllic, and we loved how the hotel complex was split across multiple buildings in town, all within a short few minutes walk of each other. The rooms were very well kept and comfortable, the food was so good we kept coming back for more, and the staff were extremely welcoming, friendly and accommodating to all our needs. We came with a dog and they provided us with a dog bed and bowl (and a little treat, too!) which we'd not encountered before. We enjoyed our first night so much we extended our stay - it made our next day a much longer journey but was totally worth it. We were sad to leave! Thank you team CDLP. Leo, Ysabel and Gigi
There were six of us, and we ordered ice cream for a snack. I personally had the lavender ice cream; it was to die for, and according to my friends' comments about the flavor, the same goes for it. We definitely recommend this place for its ice cream. Fast service, very friendly, and with a smile😊
We had lunch as a family at the restaurant. What a pleasure! Helpful and welcoming staff, an idyllic setting, a warm atmosphere, and what can I say about the quality of the food? A delight of flavors, perfectly prepared local products. Congratulations to the entire restaurant team, from the service staff to the kitchen staff.
Lunch today Everything was exceptional The welcome The dishes were as beautiful as they were delicious The setting was absolutely stunning Thank you!
A wonderful welcome from lovely women who do their best to make sure everyone is happy. Limited selection but good food. Good regional wines.
A wonderful experience both at the hotel and in the gourmet restaurant. The staff is very welcoming and attentive, dinner was delicious, and the setting is magical. I will gladly return!
Plenty of choices for lovely little souvenir gifts
Really enjoyed the restaurant right underneath the chateau. Service was very quick ordering and paying, due to people waiting I suppose.
An unforgettable experience! An establishment that promotes French cuisine and hospitality! The media exposure doesn't hide any fraud... The talent is definitely there. The staff is young, dynamic, attentive, and extremely competent. The Michelin-starred restaurant offers a modern yet environmentally friendly surprise menu... a smoked chocolate dessert: mind-blowing! An exceptional breakfast in an "old-fashioned" style kitchen, served with a smile and kindness in an Eiffel-style glass roof.
We only went to the restaurant. But honestly, it was fantastic! Beautiful place, warm welcome, delicious food.
Under the leadership of Executive Chef Benjamin Reilhes, co-designed by Chef Glenn Viel and Pastry Chef Cédric Perret, Guillaume Chenivesse's meticulous and charismatic service offers us an exceptional experience with the Experience menu. A grand gastronomic journey. Collet bubbles, Ignace dry Muscat, Givry 1er Cru Cellier des moines, Muscadet Landron, Crozes Mystery, and Roger Sabon Pape Blanc. Thank you to my friends for this divine evening. 🍷☘️🙏
The afternoon tea service is a unique experience offered by this establishment and even rarer in this region. The service is impeccable and the staff attentive. The atmosphere is warm and elegant, in addition to delicious pastries accompanied by exquisite tea. I highly recommend Ferme Chapouton, both for its location and its services; I am delighted.
Great location, the setting is magnificent. The food is very good, but you're paying for the ambiance. The service is efficient and the menu is very appealing.
We had dinner at the restaurant: very refined, original from starter to dessert; very warm welcome and quick service before going to a show.
Great hotel, great breakfast and lovely staff.
Fast service, excellent and very attentive waiter
Don't hesitate to stay at the farm restaurant, the sauces are extraordinary, the combinations fantastic, the dishes extremely generous, all in a creative way, bravo to the chef and his team
We just spent a weekend at this magnificent establishment. Everything was perfect, from the welcome to the rooms, the breakfast, and the service. A special thank you to Marina who took such good care of us! We will gladly return in the warmer months!
Great location, fabulous service, and excellent food. Wholly recommend this gorgeous place.
The setting is still beautiful, but the food has declined significantly. Not to mention the service, which is nowhere near what you'd expect from a fine dining restaurant!
Rextaurant on both sides of the street. Delicious food, friendly service.
I bought two pastries from this shop after stumbling across this place by chance. Excellent pastries, some of the best I've ever eaten. The location is also very nice. I highly recommend this place, don't hesitate.
A truly beautiful place. Lovely, well-decorated rooms. Excellent breakfast with superb cuisine. Nothing is lacking, and the staff is incredibly attentive. The bistro is lovely, and I recommend the pan-seared foie gras and the poached egg. This is a wonderful memory, and the setting and breakfast will remain etched in my mind.
Very good. Quick service as we were going to the theater. The only downside was the price of the glass of wine, which was slightly higher than the price we paid... but it was very good.
An eight-course menu of exquisite finesse, precision, and perfect balance... special mention to the lobster with truffle and cabbage... exceptional! A cuisine that fills the space with poetry... a more surprising wine list would be appreciated to complement these exceptional dishes... a truly wonderful restaurant!
I've rarely seen a hotel with such breathtaking charm as Le Clair de la Plume. The welcome was wonderful, and the room had a charisma and history that was evident just from the moment I opened the door. The location is perfect, with a small market where I'm not sure it's open every day, but it's worth the detour. Breakfast was delicious, set on a veranda that receives plenty of sunlight in the morning, and there was a very varied selection of high-quality products. The setting is truly exceptional! I'll definitely come back if I'm ever in the area again. Congratulations to the team, and thank you for this discovery.
