Nous avons passé un bon week-end. Village en fête, mais dommage que les magasin soit fermé. Pas de boulangerie. Le point fort; La restauration était exellente, le personnel souriant et sympatique. Poin faible: Pas de possiblité de boire un café ou autre avant 8h, l' heure du petit déjeuner.

Lontano da ..sui pirenei

Unico albergo in un tour last minute verso carcasson fabbricato ancient stile ...ma pulito. Cena dalle portate scarse ove il pane sembrava essere stato un tabù, prezzi assolutamente fuori portata per un paesino abbarbicato sui Pirenei. Da evitare salvo emergenze della ultima ora.

Trop court sejour d'une nuit pour détailler. Accueil correct, pour se garer la chance d'avoir une place sur du parking public à proximité. Chambre et SEB propre et spacieuse. Parquet qui grince sous les pas,normal. Wi Fi correcte.

Accueil décevant malgré une très bonne table

La chambre était confortable alors que les parties communes et le bar sont viellots et peu accueillants. La table est excellente mais la aussi le décor est désuet et manque de chaleur. Une bonne soirée et une bonne nuit tout de même, nous aurions apprécié plus de convivialité de la part de l'équipe.

Hotel très bien entretenu et accueil de qualité

Nous avons été très bien accueilli par le propriétaire des lieux pour notre nuitée sur Chalabre. La chambre était très bien équipée avec un placard de rangement et une salle de bain avec le nécessaire de linge maison. Merci encore au gérant de nous avoir renvoyé un effet personnel oublié dans la chambre...

Getting away from it all

You will need some patience and a good command of French to stay in this nicest spot in Chalabre, a small and forgotten, but also grand and imposing historical village in the mountains.
