We used to come to Chateau de Germigney for more than 20 years, often more than once a year. No we haven't been there for more than a year. Too much had changed in a not very positive way. And we haven’t eaten there last time because we really disliked the cooking of the then new 2 star chef while we loved to eat the great food of the longstanding former chef. Because things at the restaurant have now changed again, we wanted to give it another try. And were not to be disappointed. Francesco di Marzio knows how to cook. No wonder, having worked with Anne Sophie Pic before, another great chef. We had the four course menu and just loved every single one. Loved it so much that we really regretted that the delicious spaghetti portion was a bit on the small side. After four courses you do not feel hungry anymore it was just so good that you wanted another bite. Service was friendly, a mostly new and young crew in a rather unusual attire, if we dare say so. And we had the pleasure of meeting Francesco himself having finished our dinner, a very nice young man. We assured him that we will come back for more spaghetti. The hotel itself underwent also a few changes. The team at reception was quite different than the one we met last year. Very nice, very helpful. Not being happy about the fact that «our» usual room had no carpet anymore, strangely two different kind of drapes on the windows and had also lost the drapes of the four poster, we were offered another room that was recently refurbished. We trust that no 17 will look better when we will be there next time. And also the garden shed, not looking up to scratch and not befitting a hotel and garden like this. No turndown service anymore. Of course we can turn down a bed but after all the hotel boasts five stars now... All that said, we are happy to return again in the not too distant future. We did miss it.
