Hotel des Balances

Writing about the restaurant - We had an amazing experience at Restaurant Balances. We were celebrating our honeymoon and the staff went out of our way to make us feel extra special. They decorated our table, gave us an amazing seat on the river, and the service was amazing. The server we had was so friendly, so helpful, and she made the experience that much better. The food we were worried would be out of the norm of what we typically eat, but every item we had was delicious. For us coming from America and being used to American food, this food was outstanding. It was the best meal we’d had all trip. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful, romantic, or luxurious meal!!

We didn’t stay at the hotel but there isn’t a separate listing for their hotel terrace restaurant. It is immediately on the river and in a sunny day is magical. The lunch menu is limited but adequate. The tarts are very fresh and light. The cheese and sausage sampler is very nice and the wine selection is more than adequate. There wasn’t a host to seat us but a member of the wait staff kindly greeted us and allowed us to sit at a free table of choice. The espresso was my favorite part as it was very smooth and came with a nice dark chocolate treat.

Really nice experience. Very welcoming staff, super helpful and pro active. The location is amazing right on the river in the old town. We had a welcome drink enjoying a nice glass of wine. Breakfast is also highly recommended. Lots of different types of food and tasting really good
