Le Barriol

We were on a road trip from Cherbourg to the south of France and randomly picked this small town to stay. We made a booking to stay at Hotel Le Barriol and we were so pleased to have found this delightful place for our over night stay. Firstly, the place starts with Domonique and his charming wife. Their welcome was so friendly and genuine. We checked in and the rooms were perfect. Great mattresses, pillows, towels. The shower was perfect and it felt so comfortable. After a walk around the town we returned and asked to book dinner at the hotel. As part of our road trip, we were looking forward to experiencing the best of local cuisine. We never expected to be eating authentic Mexican cuisine in the middle of France. We are so pleased we did though. Domonique explained his influences in cooking from many years of travelling and living in Mexico. We were in awe of the delicious meal he prepared and it was paired with the best Margarita I've had in a long time and some incredible Mexican wine from the north west coast of Mexico . For one evening we had been transported to the town of Tabasco, Mexico where, his lovely wife comes from. A really charming, well appointed hotel run by the most charming people you could wish to meet. If you're reading this review, all I can say is "take a chance". Out there are some extraordinary people whose hospitality is some of the finest we've experienced. Oh and yes, it's such good value. Thank you to all who looked after us. Best regards Kevin & Mick.

J'aurai préféré la chambre famille proposée au téléphone et laissée à 92 € ( merci patron ) plutôt que le changement d'avis de ce même patron qui 10 mn après ( le temps que jarrive) m'a attribué une chambre simple à son prix ( 92 €) qui très bizarrement s'était libérée en 10 mn !! Ben oui , cette chambre attribuée sur le devant avec passage interminable de véhicules ( route Le Puy - Valence ) m’à bien sûr complètement déçu ( très très bruyant) d'où la note de 3. Ceci dit , à part ce petit défaut du patron ( c'est promis il ne le fera plus) celui ci reste vraiment très sympa. La chambre dont le sol se dégrade et se décolle ( à vite réparer) comporte néanmoins une literie hyper agréable. Le petit déjeuner est excellent ( contrairement à ce que j'ai pu lire ailleurs). Pour terminer je recommande vivement le repas mexicain proposé au restaurant de cet hôtel qui m’à permis de découvrir cette cuisine pleine de saveur.

Hôtel sympathique tout comme le couple de gérant. Établissement bien tenu, propre, confortable, situé au cœur du village. Bon petit déjeuner et restaurant agréable. Que ce soit pour une soirée étape ou un court séjour, parfait rapport qualité prix.
