All Boxes Ticked

Arrived in the pleasant little village of Arudy after 21.00 due to coming down one of the mountains from the Tour De France but was greeted with a smile from the lady owner who was expecting me. Check in was quick and convenient which was just what I wanted after spending a long day out in the mountains.I was informed that the restaurant was still open and there was no need for me to rush back down. The room was good and great value for money and the meal afterwards was excellent. Sitting outside with a coffee in the peaceful square afterwards was an ideal way to end the day. Thoroughly recommended hotel. Met all of my requirements.

Stay in Arudy

We only stayed one night as we were journeying from UK to Spain but would have enjoyed a longer stay if it had been possible. Arrudy is a very quite village with very few shops or bars but is in an excellent position for exploring the area. The owners were very friendly and helpful and made us welcome.The restaurant was excellent serving local food at a reasonable price. I had mutton chops and they were fantastic, try them if you ever visit. We will visit again one day.

La France qu’on aime : c’est ici !

Excellent. Juste une nuit d’étape sur la route du lac d’Artouste mais un accueil très convivial, j’aimerais dire familial, qui donne envie de revenir plus longtemps. Le dîner a l’extérieur sous la halle est génial, le menu bon et copieux. Je recommande vivement cet établissement, qui propose également un parking avec une borne de recharge pour 2 voitures électriques.

Une soirée d'étape gourmande et reposante

Accueil très chaleureux et simple. Un service de restauration avec une cuisine traditionnelle simplement hors du commun et copieux. Service en terrasse avec une belle vue sur la place centrale de ce joli village. Nuit très calme. Une vraie pose pour un repos gourmand.
