Happiness instructions

At the foot of the Peyragudes resort, the Col de Peyresourde and the GR10 in the Louron valley, this charming hotel welcomes its guests with the simplicity and warmth of the south. Small villages with glistening slate roofs; all around, the peaks rise proudly to the sky. The setting is calm and harmonious, the rooms simple and cosy with views over the valley or the stream.

In summer, after a walk or a day’s swimming with the little ones, everyone gathers on the terrace to drink a nice fruit juice. At the table, Christophe, the chef, generous and respectful, puts all his heart into concocting delicious dishes.

Your inn has 12 rooms and can accommodate 35 people, a restaurant with terrace, and a lounge with fireplace, reading area and board games.

Nestling among the peaks, in one of the most beautiful settings in the Pyrenees, between a high-altitude lake and a charming mountain village, the Mercure Peyragudes Loudenvielle 4* hotel has all the makings of a luxury retreat. The hotel restaurant, ” Les Copains “, serves tasty, generous local cuisine such as pan-fried Bigorre black pudding and trout caught in the Lac d’Oô.

It is built using local materials: stone, wood and slate. Inside, you’ll find a warm, bohemian Pyrenean atmosphere, with a beautiful central fireplace and large sheepskin-covered armchairs arranged around low wooden tables. Large picture windows open onto the terrace and its swimming pool with views of the mountains.

On the other side of the river, Balnéa, the Balneo centre, makes a strong impression, with its outdoor lagoons. It’s easy to reach from the footbridge that spans the river, to enjoy an open-air bath in the warm mountain water, with a view of the peaks.

Your hotel has 62 rooms, including 2 family suites, most with balcony overlooking the mountains; 1 bar with fireplace; 1 heated outdoor swimming pool and a wellness area & “spa Nuxe” / Massage by appointment; 1 ski-room / 1 bike-room; 1 restaurant offering “gourmet” cuisine with Pyrenean flavours.
