French Hotels & Chateaux: Special Places to Stay

French Hotels & Chateaux: Special Places to Stay

by Susan Luraschi (Author)

Synopsis

This is a seductive collection of over 320 hotels, chateaux, auberges and other places - beautiful, unusual and great value - all selected and inspected in the best Sawday tradition: they are here because we like them. At inns, or restaurants with rooms, food takes priority and le terroir - seasonal, fresh and local food - is de rigueur. In the chateaux, intimate dinners are hosted around a communal table. Alastair Sawday Publishing has earned a reputation for selecting original places that exude character and warmth and for describing them vividly in fresh and honest write-ups. We have no interest in standard star ratings and always go for atmosphere, welcome and value for money over satellite television and tea and coffee making facilities.
