Romantik Hotel le Val d'Ambleve

Stayed here for one night en route back home. Aside from the busy(ish) road, this is a great place to stay. Rooms quite modern, comfortable and well equipped to a very good standard. The patio and gardens are great for pre dinner drinks and canapés, weather permitting (which it was). The dining room is great and striking in its design, then comes the food which we could not fault (nor did we try to!). A great base for touring and within easy reach of the circuit (but beware it gets pre booked a long way in advance). Finally has secure, off road parking.

This was a real find and in mid August and very hot, it was lovely to sit on the shaded terrace for drinks before dinner. We went as a party of 16 car nuts and the staff could not have been more helpful. We had 2 delicious dinners in the restaurant where the food was so beautifully presented, original dishes all very well executed. We had a large fan in our very large bedroom, with a large bed, which was all very comfortable. A super stay in a lovely hotel.

In the heart of the Ardennes, just outside Stavelot lies, upwards from the street level, the 'Romantik Hotel Le Val d'Amblève', a hotel with 24 rooms, a restaurant, 2 meeting rooms, a sauna, hammam and a panoramic roof terrace with a view of the valley of the Ambleve. The original country house, annex restaurant and 2 meeting rooms, accommodates 3 rooms and 1 suite, the other 14 are located in a building opposite the house, together with a sauna and haman. Each room has a bath/shower and toilet, HD television, telephone, hairdryer, bathrobes and slippers. The villa 'Le jardin des Princes' 300m down the road, offers an additional 6 rooms and a lounge on the 2nd floor where guests can enjoy a coffee, tea or a book as they wish. The restaurant (also the breakfast room) with its adjacent, spacious terrace has an intimate, warm and stylish decor, which promotes the casual atmosphere. If you prefer, you can enjoy your pre-dinner drinks in one of the lounges. Large windows provide sufficient light all year round and during the summer months they open, so the inside reaturant and outdoors terrace join together. The shaded terrace is ideal to have breakfast or to enjoy drinks, to have lunch or dinner, in good company on a warm summer evening. The restaurant kitchen is classic French in characteristics, using only fresh, regional products served as light dishes and specialities of the region. Whatever the choice, lunch, à la carte, a menu choice (Romantik, Gourmand or Degustation) or the 4-course menu Soiré, it all makes anyone's stay into a wonderful experience. Larger groups, up to 120 people, are also welcome for private events or business meetings. For those arriving by car, there is free parking space on the hotel grounds. Dogs are allowed to stay, there will be a surcharge of € 15 per night.

We liked everything - and especially the excellent !dinner at the hotel restaurant

We arrived after a long hike in the surrounding nature. The reception was very friendly and the receptionist guided us to our room, which was located in a separate building from the restaurant. The room was spacious and very clean. There was a bath and a small balcony. In addition, the hotel had a very nice sauna. Breakfast was basic, but very good and in a stunning restaurant. I recommend the hotel.

Really charming hotel with beautiful touches and attention to detail with a warm, personable approach from the moment we arrived. Nicely designed with very comfortable room. Really lovely terrace leading to the garden, for drinks and dinner on a summers evening. Would 100% stay here if we return.

I was over-charged at the restaurant, which the hotel admitted, but no refund has been made. It's a shame as I spent about £800 there for a 2-day visit. I will take my business elsewhere next month when I am back in Belgium.

Nicely decorated hotel surrounded by a big garden, the environment is very  pleasant. Big room, comfortable bed, free bottle of water in the room. Good  breakfast. Free parking available. Pets are allowed in the hotel. Possibility to have dinner at the hotel's restaurant. Next to the main road, it is impossible to keep the window open (day or night) because of the noise made by the heavy traffic. So if you are looking for a calm place  and you are a light sleeper, this is not the place for you. The hotel provides  earplugs which says a lot about the noise. The covid measures are not entirely respected. The cleaning ladies were not  wearing a mask inside the hotel. Also at breakfast there was a table of 10 people although the rules say max 8 (unless a big family which was not the case).
