LA MAISON MULATÔ

From the moment we arrived, Corine and Laurent made us feel like part of the family. They took the time to talk with us and help us with anything we needed.
The house is designed so beautifully with a unique charm you won’t find anywhere else.
They also had the cutest and sweetest dog, Tungo, who we already miss!
This was the best stay and we could not be more thankful for the amazing owners and their hospitality!

We had a lovely four night stay. The home is beautiful and we felt very welcome. Breakfast was delicious and a great start to the day. Laurent and Corine (not forgetting Tungo the dog) went above and beyond everyday to make us feel very comfortable.

Quick summary: very comfortable, clean, quiet room in a very charming, beautifully decorated town-house style hotel. Excellent breakfast and dinners on site - highly recommend to book at least one dinner here.|Easy walk to town center. Spa on site. Friendly, professional hosts and staff.||We stayed four nights here while touring the area. The hosts, Corinne and Laurent, could not be more welcoming and helpful - and great talent in the kitchen!||We stayed in room #1, Fleur d’Oranger, a spacious room with a very comfortable king bed. It overlooks the front street, but we were not bothered by any traffic noise. ||The room has ample space for your things - large chest of drawers, cupboard- closet. Large chaise lounge for relaxing.||The duvet was a bit too warm for us the first night, and the staff graciously changed it out for a lighter blanket. Bed linens and towels are of high quality.||The bathroom has a large walk-in tiled shower with a rain bath shower head. Shampoo/shower gel and body lotion are provided, and made especially for the spa and hotel in a light, delightful scent.||Waffle robes provided.||The HVAC is quiet and works very well, and controlled separately in each room. (Yes, we could have really cranked up the AC to make the room much cooler for the duvet, but a lighter blanket was a better answer.)||Wi-Fi works very well.||Parking is on the street or the large open-air lot across the street. There is a nominal charge M-F before 6 pm, ie no charge overnight or weekends.||The hotel is beautifully designed and decorated throughout the guest rooms, public rooms, and the walled garden in back. There is a separate courtyard building and pool, and lovely sitting areas among the back terrace and gardens.||The breakfast and dinners are very ample. Breakfast included perfect croissants, bread, often a tartine of some kind (salmon; ham), an egg dish, fresh fruit cup, freshly-squeezed juice, and good coffee (I’m tea is also available.). In the interest of not wasting food, you might advise Corinne about how much you want to eat.||Dinners here are expertly prepared, either real talent in the kitchen. These are 3-course (and often an amuse boule) menus where Corinne will ask if you prefer meat or fish for the main course. She will shop for this, plus the other fresh ingredients, and make a great meal. This was 60 euros when we were there. We had sea bass one night, and duck another - every course a winner.||Nice selection of wines by the bottle are extra, and reasonably priced.||Meals are served indoors and out as weather permits.||Wi-Fi works very well.||Parking is on the street or in the large lot on Rue Tourney. There is a nominal charge M-F before 6pm, ie free overnight and weekends.||It is an easy walk to the city center and other restaurants. You can rely on the hosts for good restaurant recommendations.||Sunday is market day in town. Libourne is a nice alternative to busy, touristy St. Emillion.||Due diligence: there is no elevator, but staff are helpful with baggage up the stairs. Also: there is an adorable small dog in house.||We highly recommend this hotel. We’d love to stay again if in the area.

We had such a nice time at maison Mulato. All of the details in this home are so cared for and beautiful. The experience of staying here was really special, felt luxury and cozy at the same time. Short drive to the old town of Saint Emilion. Thank you Corinne and Laurent! We will be back ✨

I had a wonderful stay at La Maison Mulatô. From the moment I walked in, Laurent gave me a warm welcome and tour of the hotel. My room was perfect - very airy, so tastefully decorated and cozy at the same time.

The breakfast is served in their lovely gardens, which transport you into true vacation mode, with a swimming pool, lounge chairs and various spots to relax (along with the fluffy house guest Tango, who is sure to warm up to you!)

I also took advantage of the add-on hour of the spa, which include use of the private pool and sauna - perfect after doing some biking in nearby vineyards !

To top it off, I had a wonderful dinner during my last evening with a cute table setup in the gardens - with a dinner that I would’ve gone to again over a restaurant - it was that good!

A special shoutout to Corinne and the lovely ladies of La Maison Mulatô who all made sure to take special care of all of the guests and made me feel at home.

If I am in the area in the future, I would stay here without a doubt!
