The main hotel (Domaine du Moulin d'Asselborn) was fully booked so we had a room in their other building, Auberge du Relais Postal. I will give a review of the room on that page. Check-in was at Domaine du Moulin d'Asselborn, so was the dinner and the breakfast. We were received in a very friendly way, even with some words of Dutch (or mother tongue). We booked a package: room, breakfast and dinner. For dinner we chose the 3-course dinner. It turned out that there was not a fixed menu but that we had to choose the 3 courses (starter, main, dessert) from the à la carte menu. For lots of dishes we had to pay extra if we wanted to take these. We partly understood as these were the most expensive dishes on the menu but there was no logic. F.e. for a dessert that costs 1 euro more if you eat à la carte, you had to pay 2,5 euro extra in the menu. We did not understand this and it was not logical at all. The food is nice, nothing really special but nicely served, good taste (most important thing of course) and generous portions, too generous for us. If you take a menu you usually get smaller portions (that's why we like to take a menu) but here you get the same portions as the à la carte and for us that was too much. Next time we come here we will not take a package anymore but just eat à la carte. We found the drinks rather expensive, especially some of the wines. Service in the restaurant was okay. There was a young man and a young woman. The man was very friendly and welcoming. The young woman did not speak any French and said she speaks English, but her English was rather poor. It was not easy at all to communicate with her and she was sometimes very pushy (when she took away an empty bottle of wine or empty glass of beer she immediately said: do you want another?). We asked to change two desserts by an Irish coffee and this was no problem. What we missed was a small appetizer with our aperitive. And when the young woman took away the bread from our table she just placed it on another table and served those guests the left overs of our bread. This is not something we appreciate. Breakfast was also in this location. Breakfast was basic but okay. There was French bread, small croissants and small chocolate breads, two types of cereal, a muesli, pieces of fruit (no fruit salad), two types of ham, cheese in slices, yoghurt, eggs you could boil yourself, juice and coffee and spreads like chocolate spread, jam, honey. We missed a welcome when we arrived for breakfast, we had to guess we could just take any table we wanted and could serve ourselves. We only stayed for one night but for several nights the breakfast would be too basic for me (I like some different egg or baked bacon, fruit salad, more then one type of cheese, ...). Our stay was not extremely expensive but not cheap either so I expected a little more choice for breakfast. Overall it was a positive experience and we would go again for one night or maximum a weeken
