Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Heated outdoor pool open year-round (a rarity in the region)
- Free private parkingโa logistical goldmine in car-hostile Gordes
- Intimate, family-run vibe with only 22 rooms
Snel Overzicht: A polished, reliable 4-star base camp that trades a bit of road noise for a price tag that won't bankrupt you.
Beoordeeld door @littlewanderingwren:ย I found this to be the perfect quiet escape just outside the bustle of Gordes. The pool area is absolutely stunningโI spent hours there. While the rooms are traditional, the breakfast on the terrace with valley views made my mornings unforgettable. A true slice of Provence.

Reality check
The '15-minute walk' is technically true but feels longer in the heat, and the road noise by the pool breaks the 'total silence' illusion for some.
- You're renting a car and dread the Gordes parking nightmare
- You want a pool that's actually warm enough to swim in during shoulder season
- You prefer a casual 'guest house' feel over stiff luxury hotels

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is the pool actually heated in winter?
Technically yes, the hotel claims it's heated year-round, but it's outdoors. Realistically, it's best for extending the season (April-October), not for a January swim.
How far is the walk to Gordes?
About 1.6km (1 mile). It takes 15-20 minutes. It's uphill going into town and downhill coming back.
Is there a gym?
No. There is no fitness center on site. Your workout is the walk to the village.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it is pet-friendly. The fee is โฌ15 per pet, per night.
Is there parking?
Yes, free private parking is included. This is a huge perk in Gordes where public lots are expensive and crowded.
Do they serve dinner?
No full dinner service. They have a snack bar serving cold plates and paninis from 12pm to 9:30pm.
Tips van Insiders

Ask for a room facing the internal courtyard fountain for the most 'Provencal' soundscape.

The 'solarium' is just a fancy word for the sun deckโget there by 11am in July to snag a prime chair.

You can rent electric bikes directly from the hotel to explore the Village des Bories (just 1.8km away).
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
