Chateau Elan Winery & Resort

It was our Anniversary celebration - the hotel room (308) that we stayed is dated. Renovation and updating definitely needed. There are no smart TVs (could not use my Netflix acct, etc), and guest must to pay $24.99 to watch extremely old movies??? Chateau you can do better than average!!! The curtain would not close properly - however, maintenance took care of that issue immediately. The food was ok, not fantastic. For the price paid, we were anticipating an overall WOW experience - that did not happen! Many Hilton properties and other luxury hotels exceed the Chateau Elan experience. We would not spend the night again. The Staff overall excellent. Note: The Spa experience was also excellent!

Overall the facility is lovely and we had a delightful weekend. However the prices are quite high for the facility. $28.00 daily self parking is ridiculous combined with resort fee of more than $45.00.

Grown and Sexy atmosphere with plenty of firepits to keep warm in the winter months, which we love. If you stay, you may get a bottle of wine upon arrival, but I'm not sure, but ask about that deal.

We had a lovely time at Château Élan celebrating our anniversary. The grounds are beautiful and truly make the experience feel special. We started with the wine tasting, which included seven pours—so the variety was great. Later, we had dinner at Fleur de Lis and the meal was absolutely spectacular. We would definitely return and recommend, especially for a special occasion. That said, the tasting itself was different from what we expected based on the online description. We thought it would be a more intimate, seated tasting with a sommelier guiding a small group. Instead, we checked in, waited in a fairly long line, received a tasting menu, and then had to re-queue for each pour. The sommelier gave a few quick notes on each wine, and then we’d sit down and repeat the process for the remaining pours. Also, the charcuterie board pictured in the promotional photos was not included—it was an additional cost—which felt a bit misleading. Though the information was included in the Additional Info before booking the tasting. Overall, it was still a wonderful day, and we enjoyed ourselves very much. With just a few adjustments to the tasting experience, it could be exceptional.

Where do I begin .... Chateau Elan is an experience of it's own. From the breath-taking scenery when you drive in and when you walk into the entrance of the hotel, Chateau Elan is nothing short of spectacular. I was treated with such kindness and warm welcome the moment I stepped on the property. However, the real shining star of it all was Kaile Burdett, one of Chateau Elan's amazing workers that helped me organize my proposal to my now-fiancé. She was constantly in talk with me to pull it off, going up and beyond to make sure everything was to perfection. Hats off to her because I could not have been able to any of it without her help. Thank you so much from me and my fiancé Kaile !
