    This hotel is a great value in beautiful surroundings.

    The room was a bit small and the bed a bit firm, but it was still a good stay.

    The staff was very nice and welcoming. The hotel is nicely situated in a natural surrounding of a small town. I had a room on the 4th floor with a little bit of a view. Parking was very convenient.

    Overnight in my favourite village in the Vercors.

    Nothing I can think of.

    Room was basic but quite comfortable; as I had expected. Receptionist very helpful in both check-in and checking my biking routes for the next day (although unfortunately my target road was closed). Free entrance to the Museum of water for hotel guests was a bonus. Restaurant was a bit basic in decor, but the food was quite good. A popular destination for the locals. Breakfast was more or less what you would expect.

    To get to the river for a swim, you have to wear clothes and trek through and round the hotel.

    Quirky little hotel, overlooking the river in a pretty mountain village. Room 401 was a good size with a good shower, no way of containing water in the sink to shave though, which wastes a huge amount of hot water every time if you wet shave. There was a free bottle of water in the room, no kettle and no English TV channel, not even free BBC News. Food in the restaurant was good, good breakfast. Good views of the river from bedroom window.

    Parking was in a small courtyard outside the hotel. We arrived early and were given immediate acces to our rooms. Hotel is situated next to the river with a nice walk along the banks. The restaurant was happy to accomodate a gluten free request from one of our party for the evening meal by exchanging items on the menu.

    Public parking was nearby as hotel carpark always full, but we always managed to find somewhere to park close by. Hotel restaurant seemed expensive and limited choice - too many ravioli dishes ! Mine came without sauce - a bit dry. Bed was quite narrow and walls were a bit thin.

    Pont en Royans was a good place to stay to explore the Vercors - we stayed 4 nights. Most expeditions required drive to 3000 ft. There were limited options for food in the town in the evening - at least in early May. Window view from top floor of the river was good . Good breakfast but expensive -€12/pp Photos of water on stairs were nice. Nice to have a restaurant on site with a brilliant view, but.....see below Good walk up to the 3 chateaus above the town. Lovely views, good orchids and butterflies.

    The only criticism was the evening meal. The lamb dish was very disappointing with poor quality meat and watery tasteless juice.

    Room was spacious with comfortable bed and the air conditioning was most welcome in unusually hot weather. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Location was great and wonderful to have parking available. Breakfast was excellent.

    Pont en Royans is very quiet off-season! Very little street lighting, so no views of anything at night.

    Beautiful village in a stunning location. Medieval streets and suspended houses above the river. Wonderful drive up scenic road to Villard en Lans.

    We were lucky and got the last car parking space in the courtyard outside the hotel. Others arriving later had to either park outside of bays (hotel didn’t seem to mind) or in local streets.

    Location by the river was very good. Building was a mix of old and new and very well done. Covid precautions were carefully followed and put us at ease. Breakfast was buffet style but with plenty of choice. Museum was free entry for hotel guests (otherwise 8 euros) and worth spending an hour or so in.

    The room could have been bigger.

    The room was tiny and a bit disappointing but the amazing breakfast, facilities in the hotel and the surroundings made up for this. It was my husbands birthday and the staff sang happy birthday to him and gave him a small cake with a candle that was very kind.
