Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel du Vieux Moulin

18 rue des Moulins, Chablis, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, 89800, France

Understated chic meets 18th-century authenticity at this boutique-style hotel in a converted water mill. Antique brick walls, oak beams, and terra-cotta tile floors are beautifully balanced by a sleek contemporary decor and modern comforts, such as gleaming bathrooms, air-conditioning, and plasma-screen TVs. Because it’s owned by Domaine Laroche (a mainstream Chablis producer) breakfast includes a panoramic view of Grand Cru vines; the hotel also has a new-wave bistro (book ahead) on the ground floor, and wine tastings are offered in the nearby boutique.

  • excellent buffet breakfast

CONS
