Hôtel Restaurant Richelieu sur Eaux-Bonnes

How can I put it… A typical biker hotel/rest stop in the region, full of charm and authenticity. The welcome is warm and friendly. The food is breathtaking: excellent, generous, and very hearty dishes. A truly wonderful place that I recommend without hesitation!

I loved this hotel; it's a beautiful, very old building. The decor is rustic in the bar and dining room (and I mean that as a compliment!). There's a grand, majestic staircase leading to the rooms (there's also an elevator). In the rooms: large antique doors, large windows, etc... You feel transported back in time. We were lucky enough to get a room with a bathtub, which was incredibly pleasant after a day of skiing. It's also lovely to have an aperitif or tea in the hotel bar, or to enjoy a meal in the restaurant in the evening, which serves local dishes; the menu is very generous. The breakfast is very generous for the price; there's a wide variety of options. I highly recommend this hotel, which I think offers excellent value for money. The owners are very friendly. We will definitely be back.

We stayed at this establishment for two nights and, yes, it's rustic and old-fashioned. But the welcome was warm, the sleep was excellent, and the food was very good. The owner clearly cares about hospitality, and it shows. Breakfast and dinner were very good and very generous. The hotel has a shuttle to the Gourette ski resort, and the resort is not far by car. It's a shame the village is a bit of a ghost town, but the Hotel Richelieu brings a little spark of life to Eaux-Bonnes.
