We had a lovely stay at Auberge du Bon Vivant in Argelès-sur-Mer. The location is excellent—nestled conveniently between the beach, the old village, and the train station—making it easy to explore the area on foot yet feeling peaceful and authentic. warm and helpful staff

“A nice bohemian stay”
This is a nice privately run hotel with the option to have freshly cooked lunch and dinner on days the restaurant is open. The family room gave extra space and was ensuite. I also loved the option to have a kettle in the room. The roof terrace was my favourite spot for breakfast, and from the Juliette balcony the old town was visible. In equal distance to old town and central beach. Staff was very attentive when approached. Good parking on site. Breakfast relatively cheap.

“Great location if you want to explore the town on foot. Authentic French atmosphere!”
The hotel is located between the beach, the old village, and the train station. This was very convenient for us as we had travelled by train to this location and explored the town on foot. Excellent and plentiful breakfast! The room was relatively small but had air conditioning, was nicely decorated, and was very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

“A charming French Auberge. Small room but big on character and welcome.”
Dinner and breakfast (at extra cost) we’re very good. Room was clean and modern. We found a small roof terrace which was lovely. Comfortable bed. Very friendly owners and staff.

“Nice Hotel”
The owner was lovely. she spoke English which was a bonus as my French is very poor. Hotel approx 20-25 minutes walk to the beach. There is a choo choo train which takes you all around the area, the are different coloured routes. Please note if you are getting this to the village or back to train station the stop is round the corner from hotel in the car park of a gym or something on the left hand side. The breakfast was limited but the bread and pastries were fresh. I like a couple of coffees in the morning but felt I was unable to ask for a refill!!
