Hôtel L' Assiette Champenoise

If I could give it 4 and a half, I would, but I feel my complaints aren't worthy of taking off a full star because overall, we had a lovely experience. The only minor complaints we had were when we were having coffee on the terrace in the late morning, the lawn blowers were extremely loud so this took away from the tranquility of the garden terrace. We then asked for a table for lunch, the same morning, we knew it was last minute, but thought we would ask. They told us that they were fully booked, but we could eat alone in the conference room (posted in the picture). Perhaps they were being helpful and accommodating, but it came across as more of an insult. Also, I feel they could use some new towels, some of ours were extremely worn and tattered. However, our room was very spacious, and we very much enjoyed our stay. PS, some smiles from the male staff would be nice, they all looked super serious, like they used to work the door at exclusive Monte Carlo night clubs lol

This one has been on my renewed bucket list for a while now.
I went there twice between 2015 and 2018 and loved my experience.

Easy access, close to Reims.
The park and location are beautiful. Pretty calm and relaxing.
Very warm welcome and overall, service is excellent. Professional yet funny waiters, who help for the very nice experience.

Cuisine was very good. Savoury with excellent ingredients.
Sauces are just something! The refilling pots are just so enjoyable.
However, and this has not happened to me for a long time now, I had the feeling of still being very hungry until the cheese trolley arrived. Quite frustrating, as all dishes are exquisite, but one only has 2 or 3 bites. It falls into the stereotype of molecular cuisine where there is not much to eat. This was the only disappointment, for a total price of 395€, I would have preferred not to pick up 5 types of cheese and eat that much bread to tam down the hunger.

Excellent wine service, motivated and very professional people. Special cheers to Frédéric, this guy is made of gold! The wine list is sadly dematerialize d, which removes some magic, but I assume we now need to get used to it, better for the environment as it avoids to reprint for every change that may occur. It is super well organized on the iPad, with all categories to dig into, but also frustrating to not have everything on one page and just scroll down. Prices are rather high. Sadly, 3-star restaurants with accessible wine prices are becoming too rare.

Rooms are nice, we stayed one night there in a Junior Suite. One bottle of champagne was offered. The overall design is special, but there are nice beds and cool bathroom.

A very nice place to conclude. Cheers and bon appétit.

Pair this with a stat at Royal Champagne and you will have experienced the best in the region.
Don't miss the fabulous Michelin starred restaurant.

Outstanding, words can not describe the precious dining experience we enjoyed! The service was impeccable, food extraordinary and experience, just simply wow! Birthday celebration dinner, table of 6. We enjoyed the Saveur menu, which was a course in a course, all placed and table side finished with precision. A dining experience we shall never for get, hats off to the entire staff for setting the bar high.

First, I must talk about the service-it was outstanding; executed with military precision and with warm smiles everytime.

Second, The head chef at the restaurant was the most professional I have encountered. He found out I was lactose intolerant ( the menu did not mention ingredients and I assumed a fish dish would not have cream in it) and he immediately put together a special dish just for me. The bread they served was a marvelous , complex tasting sourdough. I had to restrain myself to save space for the main course.

Lastly, the rooms were unlike most hotels-large, filled with tasteful modern art, and refreshingly different. The impression I got was " This is not a chain hotel".

This is one of the unique places ive ever visited, from the moment you arrive until the last minute, you’re provided with the best service and the team is always smiling, not even to mention the culinary experience, nothing to say!

A truly magical experience. We had lunch at the 3 Michelin star restaurant, the home of Chef Lallemand, who inherited the kitchen from his father and turned it into this unforgettable culinary adventure. The “Emotion” menu, was made up of 10 distinct courses, each belonging in a museum. Will definitely come back. The staff was knowledgeable, attentive, and very friendly as they accommodated all of our preferences to the last detail. Thank you!

I wish we had stayed longer than one night. The room was lovely. The dining was .... I'm not sure I can come up with a word to convey properly... perfect? And I use that word understanding how much weight it carries. We had one of the loveliest champagnes we have ever tasted, and the service of both the restaurant and hotel were fantastic. Despite our very poor French they were cheerful, helpful, and made everything both easy and comfortable. Do take a moment to familiarize yourself with the lighting system. It's not hard to use, but when you wake up at 3am and haven't put your card in the slot... it won't work. So often when you travel you arrive at wonderful places only to be underwhelmed by something. This is the rarest case where everything exceeded my very high expectation.

This was the second time we had dinner at L'Assiette. We opted for the "Emotion" menu, wines included. Similar to last time, we were met with exquisitely crafted dishes composed of sometimes basic ingredients, but prepared in a way that really blows the mind. Who knew you could get so much flavor out of a tomato? The menu also includes some signature dishes like the blue lobster, a homage to the chef's father. From the freshly baked bread (one per table) and the three types of butter to the supremely crafted dessert and the impressive cheese selection, everything in this restaurant is focused on giving you the best experience possible. The wines were the ideal companions for the dishes, we even had a saké which complemented one of the courses perfectly. Despite the price, the selection was on par and I never felt cheated - as a wine professional I often do.

The staff is friendly, respectful, but also adapts to each table to ensure a personal & tailored service. We were seated in the first floor dining area, simply because they saw that I had been there the year before and had dinner on the ground floor. These kind of details make the experience truly complete.

I had dinner in a lot of Michelin Star restaurant, but nowhere have I ever felt so much like royalty/a millionaire (which I am most certainly not) as in Mr. Lallemand's restaurant.

One of the best dining experiences! Indeed living up to its 3 stars Michelin status.

Went there for lunch and ordered the lunch set with the wine pairing. The dishes were served with much professionalism. There seemed to be some kind of synchronization between the waiters. Such excellent service! Every dish and wine served is explained in details. Enjoyed every course and the wine was paired perfectly and that cheese cart! The photos can do the rest of the talking.

Believe it's worth a trip down to Reims for a meal if you are in Paris!

The hotel is in a great shape, beautiful design. Home feeling.
The room was excellent, real comfortable.
The service was absolutely five star. We can say, probably the best hotel service we have ever experienced.

We have stayed in over 20 4* and 5* hotels in the last 6 months and this is by far at the top of my list for style, comfort, service, value and cleanliness. I can not say enough about the sophistication of the interior and architectural design. This is a property with all the high end furniture that you typically do not see in a hotel. The property is spotless and according to the staff, elements of the property are renovated each year. Our guest room was spacious, with a full living room, king bed and bathroom big enough for two persons at the same time. Honestly our guest room was the same size as our apartment in Manhattan. Breakfast was fantastic with many locally sources foods presented in a beautiful dining room or on the patio. The indoor swimming pool is clean, open design and I enjoyed some quiet laps before breakfast. This has to be the best value for the money I have experienced in many years. Highly recommend! It is worth visiting the champagne houses in the area. I would highly suggest staying more than one night.

The restaurant was amazing. The food was delicious, and the service was spot on. We got the full multi course lunch plus wine pairing. I wish I lived closer so I could come back to try the all a cart items also.

Words are not enough to describe how professional and personal their hotel-restaurant is. The hotel room was spacious and clean. The hotel personnel helpful and open minded. The three Michelin star restaurant was above the charts and the personnel-chef adjusted perfect for our 2 children. The wine list is impressive. Short story: don’t miss it!

France!

You might say that Arnaud Lallement grew up at Assiette Champenoise, which was originally opened by his parents. Now at the helm himself, he shows that he has been trained by the best in the business (Vergé, Guérard, Chapel). He cooks high-calibre cuisine – classic, generous and above all very tasty – and lets his Breton roots (on his mother's side) shine through. A larger-than-life presence on the restaurant floor, Lallement loves to engage with guests and certainly doesn't stand on ceremony. The dishes are accessible and enhanced by memorable sauces; ingredients are treated with loving care, as in the blue lobster dubbed "a tribute to my dad", and the farm-reared Onjon squab. A fabulous culinary experience!

The hotel facility is impactable. The restaurant is wonderful. This was the first time we had lunch at a 3 star Michelin restaurant. We were a little overwhelmed by the setting at first but that was quickly changed by the friendly staff on hand. Our questions were answered in sincere and friendly manner. The owner and chef, Arnoud Lallement, visited our table and chatted with us. We told him that we thoroughly enjoyed each dish. To us, this meal was an education and we learned so much about fine dining. The meal was not inexpensive but it worth every penny. We are making plans to return.

Incredible experience as l'Assiette Champenoise. Incredibly warm welcome followed by a drink in the garden. Incredible champagne and wine selection. I struggled to find some of their suppliers after the meal! We did the menu creation with the wine pairing and could not have had a better meal. Incredible wine and champagne paired with incredible dishes served with incredible precision. The staff is incredibly experienced and professional. Every dish was paired with a delicious sauce. The experience is expensive but unparalelled. Everything down to the bread and butter was superb. I can honestly say that it was the best meal of my life and I have been to to multiple michelin stars before.

Right from the start a warm welcome by the whole staff. An amazing champagne list, from grower to all the big houses. The atmosphere is really cozy and harmonious, we had good advises from the sommelier. Food was exquisite, perfectly balanced and the champagnes worked just wonderful, I am looking already forward to come back again.
Thank you Arnauld & Team, you did an amazing job.
Cheers

This was by far my favorite meal during our 2+ week trip to France. We almost didn’t make our lunch reservation due to multiple Ubers canceling on us, but when I called the hotel they somehow arranged for a taxi to pick us up right outside the Reims cathedral. Talk about service!

Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and offered a seat on the terrace. While enjoying a glass of champagne, we were asked to look over the tasting menu and a la carte options. I believe we ended up selecting the Emotion tasting menu with wine pairing. We were led upstairs to an immaculate dining room and the show began.

For the next almost 4 hours, we savored every bite and sip. The only other restaurant experience I’ve had that is in the same league as L’Assiette Champenoise is the French Laundry in Napa, California. Everything was perfection from the food to the atmosphere to the incredibly kind staff. I will dream of this meal and look forward to returning the next time we are in the Champagne region.

A magnificent culinary experiece. I have never had meals as fantastic as the one I had here. Every single meal was thoroughly thought through and the drinks matched very well. I have never felt as taken care of, as I did here! My brother and I had gluten free meals, and the restaurant took care of everything for us.
