What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
In the town centre, this little hôtel de charme was created in 2011 in a converted 17C biscuit factory.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Villeneuve's medieval center sits outside the front door, with the Chartreuse du Val de Bénédiction and Fort Saint-André an easy walk away.
The rooms
The nine bedrooms each carry an individual theme, mixing bright pop art motifs with graphic urban furnishings.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
White loungers line the heated pool deck against stone walls, shaded by ivy and mature garden greenery.
At the table
The resident bar pours drinks beside leather club chairs, and breakfast is served beneath the courtyard canvas awning.
