Castel De La Pique

It's not really accurate to call this a hotel, it's really a B&B. Lovely older home on the edge of town, easy walking distance but out of the hubbub. Great location. Nice garden with roses. Owner is VERY helpful and accomodating. Breakfast is standard continental. Rooms are large but a bit shabby. No AC (I expect you rarely need it though it was a bit hot when we were there). I would stay again.

Huge thanks to Alain for a lovely stay. We loved the traditional decor and chateau style building. Breakfast was plentiful and varied. We were made to feel very much at home and were able to use the beautiful garden and bike storage was available. Alain also spoke excellent English which really helped us!

This is a very sweet B&B, converted from an old manor house and beautifully decorated, with high ceilings and lots of light. It’s set well back from the road, so there’s no noise; the only sound you hear at night is a pleasant stream right at the back of the hotel. The proprietors are lovely people—extremely helpful, friendly, and cheerful. Luchon is an excellent place to locate if you like hiking, skiing, mountain scenery, or thermal baths. There are good restaurants, cafés, shops, charcuteries, etc. just 5 min away from the hotel. Breakfast is just croissant, bread, and coffee (8€), but all were good. This was one of our very best stays during our 5 week trip to Spain and France. We absolutely loved it here, and will come back if we can!

I stayed here for 2 nights with 2 friends whilst cycling in the Pyrenees. The place is old and very beautiful. Polished wooden floors may be a little noisy but very fine looking. The shower was excellent, very powerful. Beds were comfortable. The breakfast was a bit of a let down - just some bread and pastries, coffee and juice. Not a huge amount for a tough days cycling. We preferred the buffet style in other places we stayed.

We spent a night in this hotel on our way back to Canada. It is in a refurbished manor house that is still situated on part of its original acreage. The high ceilings and polished wooden floors give the building a nice feeling. The owners are an older couple who were very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and well furnished. We easily walked 5 minutes to the large busy downtown section of the small city of Luchon for supper. We would definitely stay here again

I booked this hotel while on a moto tour of the Pyrenees, it ticked all the boxes. It had character, was in a very quiet area but an easy walk to centre ville restaurants, comfortable and clean. ||||What made it especially enjoyable was Alain the manager (and owner I think). He was very friendly and helpful, even offering his private garage to store our two motos overnight. He gave us an interesting insight into the history of this fine old town. Alain also looked after us very well for breakfast in the morning.||||I would definitely stay again, very good value, just don't expect a luxury hotel and you will like it too. Made a great change from the usual Ibis style chains.

We stayed at the Hotel Castel de la Pique for two nights in September 2016. The hotel is run by an older couple who couldn't be more friendly and helpful. The hotel feels more like a bed and breakfast, probably because it was a mansion in one of its previous lives. The gentleman speaks very good English, but his wife speaks only French. But she is more than happy to converse, regardless of which language you speak. We had a room on the upper floor that was on the back side of the hotel. It was a basic room with a bathroom in one corner. The room had one larger bed and two twin beds. Our bed was pretty hard for our tastes. The view of the mountains from the room was wonderful. A small river runs past the back of the hotel, so we constantly heard the soothing sounds of the river. The hotel has no elevator, but the large staircase is easy to navigate.||||I had a bout of "traveler's lament" (think the D word) one night while there. After my wife asked the gentleman about the local pharmacies, his wife immediately offered her own proven cure: pastis, slugged back like a shot of whiskey. I drank it, went back to bed for a couple hours, woke up and had no further problems! I am now a believer in the folk remedies of France.||||Parking is free and is directly in front of the hotel. It is set back off the road and down a little driveway, so you will have to look for the hotel's sign up by the road. It is located a very short walk from the town's main street.||||Bagneres-de-Luchon is a wonderful mountain town with numerous restaurants, bakeries, bars, cheese shops, charcuterie shops and more. The surrounding area is stunningly beautiful with many opportunities for hiking, cycling and driving. We decided that we could have easily stayed there for a week. We drove all around the area and even briefly crossed over into Spain. For those who love driving the winding mountain roads of France, this is prime territory. The area has endless curvy roads with numerous switchbacks. If you like waterfalls, the area has quite a few to see.

Hotel is a previous mansion. The rooms have modern toilet facilities; the hotel interior has been restored to what perhaps was the original style. The hotel has a lovely well-kept parkway leading to the entrance, and is surrounded by gardens. The hotel is a short walking distance from the main street with many restaurants.
