The National Guide of the Logis de France Hotel-restaurants 2009 (13 euro) Also available from the Maison de la France (the French Government tourist office)

2006 saw some 3,138 hotel-restaurants throughout France listed in the guide, which is available at Tourist Offices both in France and the United Kingdom.

The guide is a great way to discover France, staying in family-run hotels, most of them located in small villages in the heart of its regions. Logis de France hotel owners take pride in providing their guests with tasty authentic cooking, taking their inspiration from the finest local produce.

As always, Logis de France hotels offer very good value for money. Average prices range from £35 to £48 (€51 to €71) for accommodation and from £12 to £25 (€17 to €36) for set menus. Half-board rates range from £36 to around £44 (€53 to around €65) per person.

The 2007 edition has so much to offer, including: practical information translated into several languages, a precise description of the services and facilities available at each Logis, a list of hotel-restaurants arranged by themes and also a directory of European Logis outside France. The guide also comes with a free road map to help you find your way around!

From 2006 onwards, Logis de France will be using a brand-new, comprehensive classification checklist, covering some 268 quality criteria. The checklist has been drawn up taking full account of needs and expectations expressed by guests, and enables hotels to be classified with 1, 2 or 3 fireplace symbols.

This checklist covers a wide range of elements, such as the comfort of the hotel and food and service quality, but also a number of new sections such as breakfast quality and the level of attention paid to environmental issues by the hotel.

The Logis de Charme Guide 2007 (13 euro). To help you find your way around, the guide also contains a road map.

These two tools allow you to prepare your itinerary and to find Logis hotels at a glance.

We now have a seperate page for Gites in France

Chambres d'hôte (B & B's)

This normally means guest houses with fewer than 6 bedrooms, most operating under the Gites de France label. However, where the establishments are specifically listed as "Chambres d'Hôtes" we have listed them separately, on the Bed & Breakfast page.
