A small family hotel since decades furnished and decorated with traditional alpine materials and furniture. Bedrooms are small but well equipped and clean. Located right in the center it is easy to only walk for visiting the town. Breakfast is excellent. A good family ambiance that gives you the feeling to be at home. Excellent value for money! Warning: no lift!
I really did not believe that places like this still existed.
Old fashioned in the very best sense of those words. By which I mean welcoming, friendly, comfortable, well-appointed family run and inexpensive.
In centre of this busy town - easy to find, but tricky to park - until you get the code for the free secure parking. Comfortable bed, piping hot water and a much larger breakfast than one usually finds in a French hotel.
We ate in the very reasonably priced restaurant - excellent home-prepared food. Very good but inexpensive wine list.
And - wherever you looked - great big mountains. As well, of course, as the three level Vauban fortifications.
Don't miss this gem. Especially if you like BEARS - hundreds of them - everywhere (not real ones, folks!)
Friendly, family run hotel imaginatively decorated with hand carved timber figures and curious implements. The rooms are comfortable and anything but plain and uninteresting. Dinner is generous in both quantity and quality - perfect for hungry cyclists!
Would not hesitate to stay again and Briancon is a great place to explore.
A wonderful family run hotel, lovely rooms with character rather like the whole hotel. The dining room was charming and the bar/reception was full of wooden animals and pens and all sorts of hand made mountain things. The food was great and very imaginary with lovely service from all the family.
They have run the hotel since 1892 and are the 5th generation to do so.
Secure parking and we did half board for EUR75 per person per night so how good value is that!!!!!
We will definitely go there again.
we really liked the hotel. We were traveling with children and the staff was very child friendly, the room was comfortable and cosy. We had a great meal at the restaurant at night and the brakfast was excellent!
