bible 'Logis de France'. Staffed and managed by Ski Peak for

and nostalgic atmosphere.

add to the relaxed and informal ambience. Your comfort is
their number one priority and even your smallest requirements
are not too much trouble.
The Rissiou's daily menu starts with a healthy,
energising buffet breakfast. Sandwiches are available from
the bar if you happen to be back at lunchtime and a tempting,
four-course dinner (fixed menu) is served with a subtle blend
of tradition and inspiration. A comprehensive wine list comprises
wines from all over the Gallic hexagon.
The typical French hotel bar is frequently
visited by many of the local villagers, who add character
to the timeless surroundings.
