Luxury getaway

Sensation grand luxe

On its crystalline façade, the 4* hotel displays the insolence of its fluorescent lights. Minimalist yet warm, designer yet glamorous, the hotel has it all. The kissing red of the corolla armchairs is matched by the immaculate whiteness of the cocoon duvets on the king-size beds. From the 4th floor, the Pyrenees make a guest appearance… An adventure is in order. Tomorrow you’ll be soaking up the beauty and fresh air at the summit of the Pic du Midi before ending this exceptional weekend in a cathedral of well-being: the Aquensis thermal spa.

Pic du Midi

The Pic du Midi

and its cable car

Access from La Mongie station by cable car – Option to eat on site at the summit. The Pic du Midi offers daytime visits, stargazing evenings and overnight stays at the summit. Mountain biking is also available from the summit in summer.

The Pic du Midi cable car: simple, easy access to the highest peaks!

The Pic du Midi cable car takes passengers on a spectacular journey to the summit, at an altitude of 2,877 metres, where the 1,000 m² of terraces offer a 360° view of the Pyrenees, the great plains of the South West and the foothills of the Massif Central. The view is unique and the panorama exceptional.

But the Pic du Midi also boasts a valuable observatory for scientists, and thehighest museum in Europe, which passionately recounts the human epic of the construction of this exceptional site.

Your spa centre

bubble of well-being

Aquensis

The azure-blue facade of a private mansion marks out Aquensis, a thermal spa and architectural gem.

Baths and a lagoon bubble under a majestic cathedral-like wooden frame, next to an exceptional hammam. Animated pools with whirlpools, water curtains, swan necks and underwater music, not to mention saunas and jacuzzis on the terrace, complete the offer. Upstairs, 19th-century salons provide an elegant setting for massages and body wraps.

Design hotel in the heart of the city

Your hotel in the centre of Tarbes, with its resolutely designer ambience, plays on the range of raw materials.

The Lounge Bar offers a piano bar atmosphere in a decor of glass, rockwork and light. The fireplace and leather armchairs give the place a cosy feel.
