Best Western Le Bois De La Marche
"Ideal place to stay"

Ruth M, 18 Septembre 2026

After reading the mixed reviews we arrived with some trepidation and a little difficulty in finding it via sat nav however our experience was very good. Location was excellent, right by a main route. Welcome from Kamal in reception was excellent, he was incredibly friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and airy and dinner at night was really good. My husband and I had different starters and desserts but chose the same main - meagre with bouillabaisse which was absolutely beautiful. Everything was reasonably priced, all the staff were very friendly and if we are in the area again we will return.

"poor experience"

dermott q, 26 Juin 2026

We stayed here on the Monday and Friday of w/c 1st June. It is a good location close to the motorway in a well wooded area. The rooms are good. However the reception/dining experience was poor. On Monday we booked dinner at reception but when we arrived at the restaurant they had no record of the booking, but reluctanly we were seated. On our return on Friday we made a point at reception to ensure our dinner booking. Again when we arrived at the restaurant they had no record and were unable to seat us, although many tables were empty. We returned to reception to complain where the lady was rude and unhelpful. As the hotel is some way from central Poitiers and it was late,we had no option but sleep with no food. We do not reccomend the hotel.

"Very disappointing customer service"

jannj39, 15 Juin 2026

After a 10 hour drive we were looking forward to a drink at the bar and a light meal in the restaurant. We were denied both by the staff. We were told that the restaurant was not taking any new bookings for that evening when we arrived at 7pm. Instead, we thought that we would have a drink before heading out to find somewhere to eat downtown. We waited for 15 minutes at the bar trying to catch the attention of the bartender who was doubling up as one of the restaurant staff. We were the only people waiting at the bar to be served. After 15 minutes we sought out the restaurant manager and asked if we could get served at the bar. He said yes and then completely ignored us. We noted with interest that the restaurant was not full and, as the early diners were leaving, the tables were left empty. We deduced that there was some type of private function taking place in another part of the hotel. This seemed to be consuming the time of the hotel kitchen staff and we suspect that the restaurant manager had prioritised the needs of the private function over good customer service for hotel guests. After a total of a 20 minute wait, we decided to give up and drive to an external bar and restaurant as the hotel is located some distance from downtown (one of us is tea-total, thank goodness, so driving wasn't a problem). We complained to reception before departing but it seemed clear that nothing was going to change for us. We would also add that the shower in the bath was not easy to access as the height of the side of the bath is higher than normal and there is no grab rail or internal plastic shower mat so getting in and out of the bath/shower area was tricky.

"Only if you really need to"

kennethc960, 27 Janvier 2026

on the road decision based on pictures and some references. It was OK. Best part was the breakfast and service connected to this. Location is good if you are on the run. Room was OK. Overall the hotel is in dyre need of a new look and feel. To pricy compared to what is available out there.

"Should do better"

MayerlingMignon, 09 Décembre 2025

We always stop off here on our way to and from Portugal twice a year with our dogs. The cottages are great for people with dogs although a door mat in the hall would be a good idea. There used to be a small bottle of water each in the room but there's only one now although the kettle and good selection of teas remain. So why only 3 out of 5? Because we arrived at 8:30pm after traffic problems to find that the usually very good dining room was closed. Apparently they had had too many diners and run out of food…. This was just very poor management and planning because they knew how many people had booked to stay and the restaurant is the reason for staying in what otherwise amounts to a very expensive motel. Instead after nine hours driving we had to get back in the car and drive to a town to find a takeaway.

"Basic but Good Hotel"

Megs7373, 09 Novembre 2025

I was surprised at the negative comments in previous reviews. It was a good stop for one night and would definitely return . It's a basic hotel however reception was very friendly, and the areas of the hotel which we saw were clean and modern. Very dog friendly with a large green area for ‘walkies'. We stayed in one of the ‘cottages' …. ideal for dogs. The main disappointment was that the restaurant was closed, and there was no good alternative nearby. Feeling malnourished !!

"Careful with this place"

Cen28nau, 01 Novembre 2025

They gave a strange man a key to my room that unlocked the deadbolt. He came in when I was in my room. I left the hotel right away because the front desk didn't seem concerned or to think it was a big deal that they had given a stranger a key to my room. They are refusing to refund me.

"Terrible, unsafe for women"

Cen28nau, 29 Octobre 2025

DO NOT STAY HERE. Especially as a woman traveling alone. The front desk gave a man a key to my room that he was able to use to get inside. Then they refused to refund my money. This place is not safe.

"convenient, quiet location"

Anne G, 17 Septembre 2025

A convenient location to stop on our way south, not the easy to find but a nice location once you are there and quiet despite being close to major roads. Our room was fine. We had paid in advance so no problem about a deposit. There were some odd rules, you can't use the pool between 12 & 2 or after 7 pm and when we asked for pool towels they wanted a deposit which so long to organise we got our own towels from the car and used them instead. The restaurant was OK, breakfast was a bit disorganised.

Turned up at this hotel for a relaxing evening to break up a long trip. No food available in the hotel and only soft drinks being served. Very disappointing as this is a chain hotel, with a restaurant and bar, but instead we had to get in the car and find a supermarket that was open. No excuses, scheduling of staff is not the concern of the guests. No apologies, and we were one of at least 8 groups staying, all of whom had to find their own food and drink.

By staying in a hotel in Fontaine-le-Comte, you enjoy upscale hotel services while being close to all the attractions of the town and the region.

Located in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in the Vienne, Fontaine-le-Comte has many remains such as a Gallo-Roman aqueduct, the Abbey of Notre-Dame de Fontaine-le-Comte dating from the High Middle Ages, and much more.

Spending your holiday in Fontaine-le-Comte lets you recharge your batteries and enjoy a natural panorama of woods, bocage and patchworks of fields of unparalleled beauty.

Your hotel in Fontaine-le-Comte

The name Fontaine-le-Comte is said to date from the year 1080 and to refer to the fountain of the Count of Poitou and Duke of Aquitaine, William VIII. A land steeped in history, legend and mystery, Fontaine-le-Comte offers exceptional stays where it is good to relax and take time to enjoy life.

Begin your discovery of the town by heading to the Fontaine-le-Comte aqueduct. In the past, nearly three aqueducts served Poitiers, Basse-Fontaine and Fontaine-le-Comte. The remains of these aqueducts are still visible and help you better understand the importance of conveying water between the 3 towns during this period. This site is ideal for a hike with family or friends, to enjoy the surrounding nature while discovering the remains here and there.

Continue with the Abbey of Notre-Dame de Fontaine-le-Comte, a must-see during your stay. Built in the 12th century to house the Order of Saint Augustine, the abbey displays unique architecture that is well worth a visit. And if you feel like it and Old French doesn't put you off, try deciphering the inscription on its façade: « Guy Doucet abbé de cest lieu, Fit jadis en loneur de Dieu Moult réparer cest église, En gloire soit son âme mise. Amen. » The abbey can be visited freely, except for the cloister, which is not accessible.

Likewise, the abbot's lodge and the priory are worth a visit, as they have been recognised as historic monuments of France. Finally, what would Fontaine-le-Comte be without its wash houses? Four wash houses are still listed. Don't hesitate to discover them. And if you have time left, the Ceinture Verte and the Way of St James await you for superb hikes through the flora and fauna, to better appreciate the biodiversity of the natural heritage.
