The owner of this lovely small hotel - really like a bed & breakfast - was waiting outside on her sidewalk bench when we pulled up. Beautiful quiet village in the gorgeous North France mountains, bicyclists and hikers everywhere, fresh food and delicious local bubbly wine (remember don't call it "champagne" if it's not from the Champagne region!). Very friendly. As traditional in France, they are very proud of their French language and don't particularly try to excel in "speaking English" but...

just went there (Claix) on business and this hotel is really close (50m, 150') from the company. Not much special in the area, except for the breathtaking view of the mountains.
Breakfast is good, but not much food choice. Never had lunch there. Dinners are really good, especially for the price.
Rooms are simple and small, but it's quiet, AC/heating works well, windows open, and close (I don't take that for granted) and beds are reasonably comfy. Shower works well and all is clean.

A modern, well maintained hotel in a great location. It is the staff that make it special who go out of their way to look after guests. A pleasure to stay at the Le Grand
