Barcelonnette hotels

Pros: 1. Welcoming confectionery in a room. 2. A space: in a reservation we thought to have only a room with a bathroom for three people but actually they were two rooms attached togther, kide of annex and a corridor. 3. Very clean place. 4. Helpful owner, good communication with her before our arrival.

Cons: 1.Awful breakfast: poor quality processed jam packed in plastic little boxes, butter, milk, tea and fresh baguette which was only one good point about this breakfast. Nothing else was served! For B&B standard it is very bad.You don't expect this kind of breakfast in this kind of establishment, especially in the mountains! 2. Extremely slippery driveway. A car had to be leave by a way to the house and then you walk. It was impossible to walk there on a pure ice despite the fact that we all had proper, winter solid shoes. We had to walk on the side in the deep snow to reach a house. During three days owner put only once a tint quantity of gravel which wasn't enough 3. Dog droppings around the house and a dog in a liberty. Not everyone needs to like a dog, especially while travelling with small kids. 4. A bit disorder around a house. 4. Not very comfortable bed, quite small for two people. 5. A ventilation problem (had impression that there is no air in a room!) as there was only one window in this place, second room/annex had no window.

Pros: Views and location

Cons: Here we could experience again the 'famous french hospitality'. Nevertheless amazing view, calmness.

Pros: Nice chalet, sympathetic hosts Optimally, not perfectly, refurbished room and bathroom

Cons: Rather messy access to room and in garden

Pros: Staff was friendly and helpful and tried their best to satisfy us and meet our needs

Cons: Location very hard to find especially at night Cannot be found on GPS . Eventually the owner had to drive out to bring us to the B & B Breakfast not good

Pros: I liked the property being away from the main road in a very quiet secluded location and was more like a home than a hotel. The town was close by for a large range of restaurants. I sat out on the veranda enjoying the closing of the evening.

Cons: I would have liked a bit more choice for breakfast such as a range of cereals.

Pros: Well equipped room and very friendly host.

Cons: bed could be a bit bigger

Pros: The hotel had a great view of the mountains and really quiet location but a few minutes drive from the town .the owners were friendly and helpful

Cons: nothing was needed, a perfect stay!

Pros: Great location

Cons: Extremely pleasant and very helpful owners.

Pros: Second visit here, and they even remembered me from last year! Comfortable room with stunning views of the mountains. The owners are really friendly, parking is tucked away and there's a limited amount undercover. I think there's also a barn for (motor)bikes. Breakfast excellent including freshly squeezed juice. For dinner, there are lots of options in Barcelonnette - a 5 minute drive or 30-40 minute walk. There's a nice walk into town along a quiet road avoiding the busy main road, although if you're visiting in spring/autumn a torch would be useful for the return as some of it is unlit.

Pros: Extremely comfortable b&b with a large room and balcony. The breakfast was very good.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Breakfast, very friendly and helpful owners with good knowledge of the area and advices, parking facilities, quiet location a little outside of Barcelonette great for cycling and/or motor riding.

Pros: Owners/staff are very welcoming and they create the correct environment individually for each client. The hotel and its facilities are up-to-date with clean room, comfortable and clean bath/shower and good lighting system. You also can enjoy from a swimming pool, ping-pong table and adjacent to the hotel there is a tennis court for 8 Euros. The hotel offers very rich breakfast menu with fresh local ingredients and interesting gourmet menu for the evening.

Pros: Friendly personal service and great food

Pros: Lovely hosts, interesting decor, lovely breakfast, and the hosts responded promptly when they found jewellery we had forgotten in the room - sent back to our house quickly

Pros: Great spot. Owners super friendly and accommodating. For example, I arrived by bicycle, hours before check-in, soaking wet from riding in the rain, and I was immediately offered a warm drink (I asked for a cold beer instead ;) while my room was quickly prepared. And meanwhile, they washed my bike! This is just one of several examples of the kind of care you can expect here. If you’re ok with spending a bit more for something that is really special, look no further.

Pros: Veronique and Philippe welcomed us into their lovely hotel like old friends and made both us grown ups and our three young boys feel extremely looked after and as if nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is situated within walking distance of the station and the whole place is very easy to access. Les Cocons is beautifully done, the spa is amazing , the food beyond delicious, but most of all it is the team who make you feel so at home and relaxed. We will definitely be returning.

Cons: No A/C, we had to sleep with the open window because it was way too hot, we left in the early morning and we had to open the garare ourself even if we told the staff that we were leaving very early. Wifi reception in the room was bad, and also there was only 1 power plug behind the tv, so big chargers laptop didn't fit.

Pros: The host is so kind and nice,

Pros: Evelyne was a wonderful host who made us feel very welcome, and was very helpful and resourceful for planning walking and cycling routes due to her local knowledge and great selection of maps/books. Great breakfast of local and homemade produce. Dinner was an optional extra, and after a day of sport was a welcome addition and opportunity to meet other guests at the chalet and exchange stories. The chalet is in an excellent location for walking and cycling (MTB) with beautiful countryside on the doorstep.

Pros: Very warm and kind landload! Charming and peaceful room with a mountain view! To sum up: a very nice experience!

Pros: Staff was extremely friendly. For me with touring motorcycle, the fact that they offered locked garrage for my bike made possible to leave my luggage safety on the bike. Helmets also.

Cons: Room was a little too small. But for one night stay, was perfect.

Pros: Good location in the centre of this town. Great secure parking garage for motorbikes and cycles. Barcelonnette is a great base to explore the high Alps. Bathroom was clean. Very enthusiastic owner who spoke excellent English.

Cons: This hotel was not good value for money. Our room was clean but in need of painting as there were greasy marks behind the bed head and on the walls. Lack of storage space in the room other than a hanging rail and a couple of shelves. The net curtains were torn and the curtains were too long and draping on the floor. No air conditioning and the room was very stuffy. The towels and bedding were of mixed quality (one of the sheets had holes in it). The towels were changed daily but the bedding was not. The location is superb but the hotel could do with some investment, or adjust the tariff to reflect the quality of the hotel.

Pros: Motorcycle parking secure

Cons: It rained twice. Ha-Ha

Pros: Location Good bike garaging

Cons: Room very small Unfriendly welcome

Pros: Great little hotel which is ideally situated in the centre of the village. Pascal who welcomed us on arrival was great, happy, friendly and helpful! Lots of shops and restaurants nearby but still a small village so not too busy. We arrived on motorbikes which they kindly stored in their garage for us - perfect!! Rooms were very small and basic but clean and adequate.

Pros: Perfectly placed to stroll into town and cycle out to the abundant cols. Bike storage nearby

Cons: The shower had seen better days, the breakfast was poor and it can be quite noisy at night

Cons: I booked a triplé room expecting 3 single beds however there was only a double bed and a single and as a consequence I had to get another room .

Pros: The host was amazingly kind helping us with things we couldn't even think of, offering better rooms for us and parking places. Great view. Nice bar and restaurant.

Cons: The place can use some renovation

Pros: Views from the terrace were amazing

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location, indoorpool, meals, staff

Pros: The hotel good enough but The staff exultant

Pros: Excellent staff and food from the restaurant

Cons: Every thing is good .

Pros: Good location in the mountains, 5 km from Barcelonnette. Breakfast was good. Room was clean and basic. Quiet environment. Parking outside the hotel.

Cons: Basic facilities in the room. WiFi was slow.

Pros: Management, good advices and excellent welcoming

Cons: Room and specially need some repairs : shower by example

Pros: Very friendly and kind staff! I immediately felt myself welcome there. All of them spoke good english. Food was very good. Highly recommended.

Pros: The staff were extremely friendly and very helpful

Pros: The hotel was charming but quite basic. The sauna is tiny so we weren't able to use it. The room was fine but basic.

Pros: Close to ski lift. Amazing mountain views.

Cons: We couldn’t wait to leave and get a good nights sleep. The building is poorly constructed so you can hear everything that goes on inside and out. Imagine groups of teenagers shouting and banging above your room and people coming from the restaurant/bar area talking loudly and smoking next to your window until the early hours every night. The windows are single glazed so we could hear every sound outside. Our room was on the thorough fare for all other guests to the bar/restaurant/ski store making it impossible to not be woken up. We were also next to the staff entrance so once you had finally got to sleep the staff arriving in the morning at 6.30am woke us up talking, smoking and parking the van outside our door. We just wanted to be able to sleep on our holiday, especially when we had gone to relax in the evenings and ski by day. The breakfast is terrible, ice cold boiled eggs and stale cereal every day nothing hot is on offer not even toast. The meals in the evening are a lacking lustre too. Salmon cooked from frozen with microwaved rice and a small portion at that, disappointing. We had Fondue one evening - 6 small potatoes some bread and hot cheese (fondue) 50 euros!! The WiFi doesn’t work in the rooms properly and is intermittent in the main restaurant/bar. Our party ran out of data as they thought they were on WiFi and it wasn’t working. It was impossible to even check emails at times. We checked out a day early. We couldn’t wait to get away to get an uninterrupted nights sleep and decent food. When we spoke to the staff about our issues they weren’t interested. We would highly recommend not spending your valuable holiday time or money staying here.

Pros: excellent located next to ski lift

Pros: beautiful setting

Cons: Kitchen: salad announed as ‘chef salad of local ham and cheeses’ appears as 80% cold fish instead of mountain ham and cheeses. got very sick during the night from a salmonella infection of the cold fish in the ‘salad’. Be careful with the menu here as the description does not seem to match the dish.

Pros: Brilliant location. Peaceful and quiet. Hotel lovely

Cons: Would have liked a room with a slightly better view

Pros: Location was adjacent to a square with lots of restaraunts and activity.

Cons: The room was small. Very small. Stairs a little awkward.

Cons: Room was a little small but it wasn't a problem

Pros: Good parking, great location on the square

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Perfect bike room! Really good breakfast. Room quiet, big enough but really hot even with the Ventilator.

Pros: Location, staff, bike store (!), genuine French hotel ambience

Cons: Breakfast was limited, even though it was continental; could have done with some eggs or meat.

Pros: Really friendly and helpful host who went out of her way to make sure we were happy. Free garage parking provided for our motorcycle (motorcyclists & cyclists are made particularly welcome), nice location overlooking a small square ringed with bars, restaurants etc. The building is old and typically quirky French. Can't comment on the breakfast as we chose to walk to a cafe by the local market.

Cons: We had originally booked an inner courtyard view room thinking it would be OK for one night but soon realised that was a mistake as for 2 people with all of our motorcycle gear it was cramped and claustrophobic - our host kindly upgraded us to a better room, giving us a choice at different rates - we had to pay more than we had originally planned, but not much, and it was definitely worth the extra.

Pros: Very cyclist friendly.

Cons: Located right on the central square which made it a bit noisy. Somewhat dated.

Pros: Central location. Staff were pleasant

Cons: The room was very small opened on enclosed area. No wardrobe. No air con. Expensive compared to other properties we stayed in

Pros: Great base for a cycling holiday. Good bike facilities, super breakfast, friendly staff

Pros: Great hospitality.

Pros: Clean, close to centre, friendly staff motorcycle garage

Pros: Good traditional French hotel, with friendly attentive staff.

Pros: Great location friendly staff

Cons: A little too expensive

Pros: Nice hotel in a great location, a short walk from the town centre which has lots of bars and restaurants, some points lost for the staff due to the staff member charging all 4 of our rooms to the card used to secure the rooms-without the card holders express permission, very poor form............

Cons: Check in and check out, more clarity regarding settling the bill.

Pros: Staff helpfulness and the breakfast, and the off street parking.

Cons: Somewhat old fashioned.

Pros: The friendly owners, spacious room and shower, private car park, excellent breakfast and location.

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff. Good recommendations for our lunch and dinner.

Cons: Our mattress was a bit worn-out.

Pros: Friendly family run hotel. Good breakfast.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Happy friendly helpful staff.

Cons: No lounge area for guests. WC in room tiny and straight into room near to the bed. Booking.com didn't pass on our bed requests to the hotel.

Pros: Very convenient for ski equipment renting, close access to ski station. Could use shuttle in 1600 if miss the last lift :) Diner available AND EXCELLENT. Good choice of wine went well with the mountain foods. Fondant au Chocolat was great!

Pros: the only positive thing to say: close to the slopes

Cons: there was no parking at arrival, the internet didn't work at all, the heating was off and would only go on in the morning, everything was very old, the woolen blanket wasn't probably washed for ages, the owner and his staff didn't make any effort to help on parking or the internet, not worth the money! I went there very last minute, if you have some options, take another place to stay!

Pros: I received a very warm welcome even though I was quite late arriving after a hard day cycling in the mountains.

Cons: Nothing to mention

Pros: Great food, cozy hotel and good service

Pros: Great location, right at the bottom of the slopes. Room was comfortable & breakfast buffet was quite good. Close to everything (restaurants, ski rental, etc.)

Cons: Rooms were not well insulated in terms of noise, neither was the spa - our massage was punctuated by conversations and machinery noises. Parking was extra but very convenient.

Pros: The location was great. Very close to the chairlifts and the ski trails and in front of the public parking. The staff on reception were very professional and helpful. The rooms were a little on the small side but very clean and well furnished for the price. Well set up with lockers with facilities on site. The bed was very comfortable so that was nice to return to. The hotel was very responsive when I had questions prior to arriving. A nice stay and would recommend it.

Cons: There was only 1 lift available and it was quite small. Whilst OK at the end of the season, can imagine the wait and crowd during the peak season. Breakfast was good but the hot dishes potentially could change every alternate day. Again good for variety for a longer stay, The staff at the spa struggled with English a bit and the Nordic bath did not work properly the morning we booked it but was still charged, although it wasn't too expensive.

Pros: Location is excellent, 1 yard away from lift and very close to bars and restaurants

Cons: Skiing is a bit limited but what is on offer is excellent quality

Pros: The location was great and the crepe station was a hit with my kids and the cleaning staff was kind and efficient.

Cons: Breakfast started too late in the morning and we could not order lunch at lunch time out on the patio I think because they were under staffed.

Pros: Nice location in the French alps. Free parking

Pros: Location

Cons: Location of this hotel is great unfortunately the staff are not really bothered apart from the lady that works at the bar she was very friendly. The WiFi is shocking, you need a piece of paper with the code for each device and it boots you off every 20-30 minutes, it's super slow and made doing any type of work impossible. Everything is additional, extra for pancakes at lunch, extra to use the gym, extra to use the jacuzzi. It is crazy. Also, the extractor in our bathroom didn't work, we asked 3 times to have it checked/fixed and no one ever did come to fix it.

Pros: Location was amazing- especially with young children

Cons: Sometimes noisy due to fire doors slamming shut

Pros: Good Hotel in Pra-Loup. Nothing special, but reasonably comfortable.

Cons: The rooms are quite small.

Pros: Quality of linens and towels. Access to ski area: the in house lift is closed but it's not too strenuous to ski walk to the next lift. The breakfast.

Cons: We stayed here a few years ago, when the hotel was new and we loved it. Sadly, not much maintenance has been done since and there is an overall tired lock to the once gorgeous bar/lobby area (holes in furniture, wall fittings with no pictures, thread bare rugs) Part of the breakfast buffet stood half dismantled all day, which is not a nice sight. Tables were littered long after clients had gone. Shame, it would not take much to bring it back to the bijou it once was.

Pros: good location

Pros: Nice location. Free parking in the square. We could walk to shops and restaurants. In the square there were people playing with petaungue.

Cons: We had to walk a steap staircase to reach the entrance. The window facing the square and you have to consider noice from the bar until late. No soap In the bath room.

Pros: Good location in ther city centre, nice breakfast. Noisy in the evening as the bar is just under the windows.

Cons: Apartment entrance from the back door, still under refurbishment. External corridors dirty.

Pros: The room was clean with a nice view on the mountains

Cons: The access to the room is horrible and dirty through a common entrance with the kitchen exit, additionally, old furniture was stored in the corridor. The room did not have any table only a narrow counter which made it difficult for eating.

Pros: Location near town centre.

Cons: Our room was above a bar when we opened our window to air the room, cigarette smoke drifted up from below.

Pros: The bar staff are very friendly and the girl got us the keys and showed us around, and the WiFi is good and there's a supermarket nearby. It's also right beside the old town with all the restaurants and bars. I managed to get parking right outside on all 3 nights that we stayed and its a good base for exploring the mountains including the Bonette.

Cons: The entrance to the apartments is shared with the kitchen of the neighbouring restaurant and looks very dodgy, but once you get past that, and up the spiral staircase, the room is basic but very clean. The 'kitchen' is a very small affair but my wife managed to rustle up a few meals on it.

Pros: Very clean and well equipped. Friendly staff in the bar.

Pros: Hotel was better on the inside than how it looked outside. Staff were friendly. Supermarket close by

Cons: Hard to find, no signage

Pros: The environment is stunning. Apartment is situated walking distance away from the heart of the town. Parking is public and free.

Cons: The place had a backdoor kind of entrance. As an over 2 meter tall person : a journey of 'head prevention'. My room was situated above the bar. One night the sub-woofer of the sound system kept me pretty awake.

Pros: Simple clean room +kitchenette.

Cons: Met the expectation. Coffee machine, don't forget coffee and filters.

Pros: The bed although it took up all of the room!

Cons: The attitude of the management and that as a couple he expected us to pay more per head than a single for dinner and ao we didnt eat there.

Pros: Nice location.

Cons: Breakfast was not good.

Pros: The host is very friendly, great value for money.

Cons: Breakfast, nothing special and a bit expensive.

Pros: The couscous was excellent.

Cons: WiFi did not work in my room.

Pros: Lovely friendly people. Excellent location with views across the valleys. Food, including evening meal was very good.

Cons: The room and bathroom were a little small but ok for one night.

Pros: The location and the kindness of the personnel

Cons: The size of the bathroom

Pros: We were very pleased with Hotel les Flocons. The host was very friendly and the accommodation and food was great. Definitely visiting soon.

Pros: Very good breakfast Friendly owners Possibility for diner in hotel (not wow!, but more than ok) Nice views on the surrounding mountains

Cons: Had room in not yet renovated part of the hotel. - Very hard beds - Toilets which do not accept any paper - to be thrown in litterbox

Pros: We loved watching and listening to the bands playing out our window for two of the nights. Thank you.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very kind staff/owner and the apparment was beautyfull. Close to citycenter but located in quiret Backstreet.

Pros: Bed was nice, I could book on a Friday for 1 night, breakfast was good.

Cons: It is a way from the slopes, ski room was awkward, bar lacks atmosphere

Cons: Very far from the lifts not worth the walk up such a steep hill!!
