Prehistoric Lodge - Hôtel du Pont d'arc (Adults Only)

We all loved this place and our rooms were really nice, clean, comfortable, nice balconies with great views.|I did think the area did look tired and needed a good tidy up and perhaps some attention paid to the actual landscaping on site. However, the views from our rooms were stunning and, after the day trippers had gone, all was quiet and tranquil. |Dinner was excellent, one of the best we had on this trip. Breakfast was absolutely fine but, unusually, was served in a tray at the breakfast table, croissants were in paper bags and juice was served in your own carafe! I don't understand why they serve english jam and juice though.|Staff were very helpful and between their attempt at engish and my attempt at french, we managed!|This is definitely on our list to visit again.

My girlfriend and I booked one of the huts. We arrived tired and hot after a train and 2 bus trips from Lyon. The river in front of the lodge was the perfect temperature to cool off. We had an amazing dinner that we ate on our terrace with a bottle of wine from the owners’ vineyard. In the morning, we went for a double kayak trip down the river. It was so fun! We managed to stay upright through the 3 small rapids we travelled through. The service is wonderful. I highly recommend this place.

We travelled from Lyon by train and 2 buses. It took time to get here but it was worth it when we discovered this gem. ||We stayed in one of the huts that has a view of the river and cliffs. A dip in the river was refreshing and relaxing. We ordered a bottle of wine from the owners’ vineyard that we picked up in a bucket with ice and enjoyed on our terrace. We ordered the a la cart meal with several choices for each course and ate it on our terrace. It was delicious and beautifully presented in boxes. We had enough left over for our lunch the next day. ||We slept well and woke up to the sound of birds. We rented a canoe from the owners and paddled down the river for a couple of hours.||The owners are very welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend this place.

Such a lovely place. We had a great stay there, accommodation was perfect with stunning views. A chance to relax in beautiful surroundings. Friendly helpful staff.

Very unfriendly hotelier-woman today. We went through a big thunderstorm and wanted to get short (like 5 min) shelter, and the woman kicked us with the most harsh, heartless manner away. Also wanted to get a coffee or eat something, but still got hunted away. Very disappointed of this establishment!

The location is outstanding and very special. The concept is excellent. The cabins are looking tired and the wooden floor to our outside shower was rotten. One chap was outstanding service wise and welcome wise but that was not replicated by others including at reception. It feels expensive for somewhere that is poorly maintained but with some TLC has the potential to be amazing.

Absolutely gorgeous location and perfect to explore the surroundings or just relax in the hotel and go for a swim in the river and a hike. The staff was very friendly and the rooms mostly very good, especially the view!

The location is extraordinary. Our room in the lodge faced limestone cliffs and the river and featured a large balcony. The room itself is quite small and spartan but it provided a restful nights sleep. The staff were friendly and helpful.
