Hotel Restaurant le Centenaire

Every element of this great hotel is perfect. The Michelin guide nomination is well deserved as the food is beyond magnificent. The duck confit was sublime as was all other plates we enjoyed. The staff cannot do enough for you to ensure you have a great stay.

This hotel is perfect! The quality of the accommodation and the generosity of the hosts is excellent. They pride themselves on being environmentally proactive, so there are no single use plastic toiletries in the rooms. Instead, on arrival, you are invited to choose the fragrance of your own handmade soap and shampoo bar, slices of which are given to you on a plate to take to your room. And no pod coffee here. In the rooms there is freshly ground coffee with your plunger, and real excellent espresso at the breakfast table. The owners are a husband and wife team. He's a chef and cooks for their fine dining restaurant (exquisite), bistro, and breakfasts which includes his freshly baked croissants, baguette and cookies. There is a large kitchen garden in the courtyard with wonderful fresh produce. I would go back again and again!

Overall pretty good. Didn’t seem busy but I imagine it will get busier if the food keeps up to the standard and it gets a star. We stayed for 3 nights and had a room with a balcony. Room was comfortable and clean, bathroom was great and appeared to be recently renovated to a high standard. Staff were great, friendly and accommodating. Couple of minor points, the road is fairly busy, it’s not so bad on weekends but in the week it appears to be used by a large amount of Lorry’s fairly early in the morning so getting a room the faced away from the road could be a decent idea. Terrace is not private to other terrace and road, needs a wall or partition around it. Breakfast was ok, bread a bit too stale and clearly recycled from restaurant? On Friday and Saturday morning had delicious cooked eggs and mushrooms, Sunday morning for some reason not the same eggs were watery and mushrooms oily (I think someone else made this tbh) also, we thought the area of the bistro was strange. It would be better if breakfast was in the restaurant area as the bistro area is not so nice. I imagine if the hotel is busy people would be walking past you in and out of the door to the car park whilst eating which isn’t so pleasant. I must say these are fairly minor complaints though, it was good and we would go back (not just for the food in restaurant)!

We had a fabulous dinner at Le Centenaire. The food was excellent and the wait staff top notch. My wife is a vegetarian and the meal they prepared was excellent. Don't miss the coffee trolley for an unforgettable experience. We are lucky enough to live close by and thus will now be a favourite.

Great location to visit many of the spectacular sites in the area. The welcome we experienced was first class and the room spacious and well equipped. The staff were exceptional, ensuring all our needs were met in a very professional way and always with a smile. We ate in the Bistro and Restaurant, under the stars, and the food was delightful. The continental breakfast was one of the best we have experienced in many years of travel. We have many fond memories of our two night stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Dordogne.
