We took a tour group to sw France, and Madame Yolande and her staff at L'Eveche were wonderful. We threw her several curves--last minute dinners, extended stays, etc.--and she handled all with efficiency and grace. Wasn't our first visit to L'Eveche, and it won't be our last. More

We stayed here for 3 nights using Alet les Bains as a base to explore the Cathar region. The hotel sits in extensive grounds with a river one side where I saw a kingfisher.

Beautiful setting with stunning views. Unfortunately the rooms let it down - small, barely furnished, and in need of re-decoration.

It was small and barely furnished with a very cramped and poorly ventilated bathroom. Overall it is worth... More

Did you ever live in an old Episcopal Palace before? This place has some athmosphere. The old and massive wooden furniture in the rooms certainly adds to it. It's paradise without TV, very quiet, a perfect hideout for a romantic weekend. The hotel has a restaurant serving the local cuisine. It's in a park in the middle of the historical... More
