Fantastic family experience - Fantastic experience learning about chocolate and the hard work it takes to make the delicious treat we all love to eat. The market shows the versatility of the plant displaying how using all parts of the plants for other goods as well as the food with coca infused was tremendous.

Worth going! - Did not expect to learn as much as we did on the history of chocolate and how different kinds are made. The people were really friendly and knowledgeable and the shop offered a lot of gifts/souvenirs

The actual chocolate... - The actual chocolate making session was great. Informative and all enjoyed it for the part we did.
Beforehand: We arrived early to eat at the market restaurant… overpriced, pre-prepared basic food and confusion between staff.
We were then asked if we could join the earlier class. No problems, we were told they would tell us when to go. 10 mins later we were casually told to go. Class had started and we were added on with bowls and ingredients arriving. Missed the first part about the cocoa plant, seeds etc.
Great set up and lovely location but disorganized.

Average activity lacked substance and variety - Although sold as a 1 hour activity the actual chocolate making part, which is good fun takes no more than 20 minutes. The rest of the time is spent hanging around and waiting with little to do other than browse a few limited shops. Glad I visited hotel chocolat but felt generally underwhelmed by the event.

Fun fun - Once in a lifetime experience. Fab restaurant. Making the chocolate bar needs a lot of elbow strength! Chocolate tasted weird at first. Wiuld have liked a long talk about the estate andvyhe grand.When get it home put in fridge as melts. Toilets down many steps. Why no chocolates at the end grrr
