Hôtel Restaurant Le Viscos · Saint-Savin

Absolutely love this place! twowheeltours has stayed at this great hotel many times over the years and it NEVER fails to disappoint. Family run and they really know how to offer the best service in both hospitality at the restaurant and in their accommodation. Thank you and we cannot wait to stay with you again in the future.

Superb family-run hotel. We felt so looked after following a long randonnee in the mountains. Fantastic breakfast, picnic (on request) and dinner using local produce. Beautifully located in the charming village of Saint-Savin. Easily accessible by taxi/car/bike, not so much by public transport.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Le Viscos, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. Nestled in a picturesque setting, this hotel offers breathtaking views that make it the perfect getaway for nature lovers and those looking for a tranquil retreat. The moment you step into the hotel, you’re greeted with warm hospitality and a sense of calm, thanks to the beautiful surroundings. The rooms are spacious, elegantly decorated, and offer panoramic views of the landscape, Waking up to the sound of nature and enjoying the view from our window was a highlight of the stay. The restaurant, with its refined French cuisine, offers an exquisite blend of flavor and artistry. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance is warm and elegant, with an inviting atmosphere that perfectly complements the scenery. The outdoor terrace is particularly special, offering a magnificent view while you enjoy your meal. The menu is a carefully curated selection of traditional and modern French dishes, each one more delightful than the last every dish is prepared with the freshest ingredients and presented like a work of art. The flavors were balanced and nuanced, making each bite a memorable experience. What sets this restaurant apart even further is the impeccable service. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the dishes and wine pairings, and genuinely passionate about providing a great dining experience. Their attention to detail, from ensuring wine glasses are always filled to timing the courses perfectly, made the evening feel seamless and special. Overall, Le Viscos offers not just a place to relax and unwind, but a culinary experience that is truly unforgettable. The combination of beautiful accommodation, breathtaking scenery, and a world-class French restaurant makes this destination absolutely worth a visit. Whether you’re a foodie or simply someone who enjoys fine dining in a beautiful setting, this is a must-visit! Also we met the chef who explained to us everything about the dishes.

I visited the restaurant in September 2024 for an evening meal. It was had been looking forward to this experience for some time and I wasn’t disappointed. The fine food and wine were exceptional but even better were the family and staff of Le Viscos. We were really well looked after; the service was brilliant. Even the diners near us were really nice people. I would love to come back and would certainly recommend Le Viscos to anyone!

One of the best places we have ever stayed! ||We spent a wonderful weekend at Le Viscos. Saint Savin was a perfect location for exploring the French Pyrenees, as well an idyllic place to relax, drink a glass of wine on the bistro patio, and enjoy the charm of village life. ||We had fantastic meals at both Le Viscos and Le Bistrot de l’Abbaye. The food at both was delicious and innovative, and we really appreciated how accommodating the chefs were of our various food allergies and restrictions. ||It felt like the chefs, their family, and really the whole town was looking after us and invested in our comfort. We wish we could have stayed all week!

We had a special dinner here but did not stay at the hotel. The meal was fabulous. I don't know when I'll be in the area again but if I ever am, I'll be back. Courses were well paced, service was minimally attentive (in true French fashion), every bite was exquisite. You can't go wrong.

Stepping back into the 90s, charming and well kept, dining room has not changed in 30years it seemed (which is not a bad thing). Dinner was nice but not great, journey to the 90s in terms of style and decoration a bit pricey for what it is (3course 55Euro, 4course 82Euro), Service was sketchy (young lady was nice, but older lady way past retirement was both hostess and assistant waiter looked us up and down upon arrival, empty dining room and offered the worst table, just before main course she came with a pen and paper and asked my wife to spell her name (for the birthday candle plate and I had preordered and name provided!!). Nice evening, but not worth the money.

The secret of Saint-Savin 🥰, Le Viscos offers an experience that feels both intimate and welcoming, as though you’ve been invited into a family’s home. The traditional French cuisine is prepared with exquisite care, each dish praising the region's flavours. From the formidable soup to the amazingly tender lamb, every bite reflects the authenticity and passion behind the cooking, the local culture and stunning surroundings. What makes Le Viscos truly special is the warmth of the family who runs it. Their hospitality feels effortless, making you feel not just welcome but genuinely at home.
