It was a wonderful stay.

Beautiful high quality fixtures and furnishings. Wonderful location right by the castle and in a gorgeous square. Excellent evening meal. Charming host

True shabby chic, very tastefully done.

The Coq D'Or is very conveniently central. A pleasant old (1908) building with good sized rooms and restaurant downstairs. No parking available other than in the street - OK out of season, likely to be challenging in summer. The room, bed, bathroom were all good and the staff helpful and pleasant. Jonzac itself didn't have much to offer in mid December, with many places closed, such that the hotel restaurant seemed to be the only available choice for dinner.

I had the day's 'menu' in the restaurant, and all the courses were tasty and well presented. However, a couple of hours later I suffered from acute symptoms of food poisoning. Pretty much recovered by the morning, after an interrupted night, but very much took the edge off my stay at the Coq D'Or. Ate a minimal breakfast - expensive for what was offered, nothing cooked was available.

Although the place was ‘closed’ due to it being a Monday (they also have a very popular restaurant operating everyday except Mondays) the owners very kindly accepted our booking and we had to call once we arrived, to be let in. The room was beautiful, spacious and the bathroom a good size too. The building is old and elegant. A substantial continental breakfast was served in the bar in the morning. We stayed in Jonzac solely because we were visiting a wonderful cognac estate 8 minutes away. We had also heard about the restaurant at Hostellerie du Coq d’Or which was sadly closed during our stay.

We enjoyed our stay but basically, no fault of the owners, there is not much to do or see right in Jonzac. It’s a good stopover for visiting cognac estates and trying a couple of the restaurants.
