LA COLOMBE D’OR * * *
Cómo llegar y contactar
Hotel cálido y acogedor con una terraza sombreada que da al jardín y a la piscina.
Si pasas por delante de ella, no verás nada más que la monumental puerta de madera con su pátina de tiempo. Hay que atreverse a empujarlo para entrar en este lugar mítico, que es un verdadero museo. Muchos pintores y escultores han vivido aquí o se han detenido aquí para dejar su huella y enriquecer la colección privada de arte: Picasso, Chagall, Matisse, Braque, Léger, Calder, Dufy, Signac... Artistas del cine, del music-hall, escritores les sucedieron. La terraza sombreada conduce al jardín y a la piscina; el interior es cálido y acogedor, la intimidad de los huéspedes está protegida de la vista. Es una dirección única, fuera de las murallas, poblada por espíritus, que opera una magia atemporal.

Carré d'Agneau excellent
Glace banale
Service un peu vieillot mais très gentil ..et quelle déception de ne pas voir ce lieu si mitique entouré simplement de quelques tableaux de maîtres certes célèbres....un courrier de Jacques Prévert et stop "arrêt buffet". Rien ne nous laisse envisager le passage de Simone Signoret et Yves Montand qui ont toutefois permis à la colombe d'or d'être célèbre....très Décevant...l'intérieur ne laisse pas présager la venue d'autres célébrités...mis à part quelques tableaux ou lithographies...
La terrasse fait "peuchère " ..
J'y ai mangé il y a quelques années..
Je n'y reviendrai pas et je ne conseillerai pas sauf si on souhaite se dire ....je suis allée manger à la colombe d'or pour faire soi disant "classe"
Went out for valentine's day to La Colombe d'Or hotel's restaurant after extensive recommendations from friends on how great the food was, the atmosphere and staff, with the heads up that the place is high end and the price reflects it.
Booked in advance and when I arrived my reservation was not in their system, even though I showed the confirmation email and they didn't manage to find it. Finally they arranged a table in a secluded little room with 3 other couples.
They were clearly understaffed, the waiter took 20-30 min to even come to the table, when he did we were ready to order and get drinks, he just asked for water, confirmed the request and turned his back. The water took 15 min to arrive.
After the water he took our orders, I asked for two wine-by-the-glass and for him to light up the candle - that took 25 minutes. When he came back he didn't bring the matches and forgot to light up the candle. I asked one more time.
The 1st course came in, it was decent, but definitely not amazing as I expected.
The second course took 45 mins after the 1st one, and they took over 30 mins to drop by the table and more than that to deliver anything we asked.
The main course came in, the food was good - nothing surreal. So was the dessert.
The check took literally 45 mins to arrive, even after I got tired of waiting and literally stood to talk to the manager to speed up the process.
Bottom line, the check was $340 - One would expect to have a great meal and great staff. The waiters were kind and polite, when they showed up, however for $330 you would expect to have non-stop service, at least for drinks - getting to the point that we started to share the drinks - that's how awful the waiting was.
And the Food did not live up to a $100 restaurant. Definitely should've gone somewhere else.
