As part of my road trip in Southern France, one of the hotel I stayed in, was about 30 minutes drive from Uzès in the medieval village of Castillon du Gard just a few minutes from the famous Pont Du Gard.
Le Vieux Castillon is a magnificent hotel and gourmet restaurant, an excellent example of hospitality located on the old cobbled pedestrian part of the village. It can be an awful idea if you have too much luggage to drag all the way to the hotel, in my opinion, it adds to the charm of the place – I only had a small hand luggage.
my room at Le Vieux Castillon Hotel
The property is light, white and bright, with superior facilities. The decor is modern French chic, with white and light tones and beautiful furniture. The hotel communal areas were clean and well-kept.
Free working Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and minibars. My room had Bose sound system and Nespresso coffeemaker, which I took full advantage of. The bed was very comfortable, right size and glorious crisp linen and towels in the perfect bathroom with his and hers sink and toiletries to match.
Le Vieux Castillon Hotel
I was impressed with the service. The staff was very helpful and polite staff throughout my stay. The parking valet was a real nice touch.
There’s a gourmet restaurant that has wood beams, a fireplace, and a terrace which overlooks a stunning outdoor pool and a sundeck with vineyard views. They have an outdoor cinema by the pool in the evenings. A beautiful and well-stocked bar next to the restaurant.

What a stunning hotel! The food looks amazing too! 🙂
Oh my goodness! I wish to be on one of those white sunbeds all day and eating and drinking that delicious food and drink in the evening…before slipping into that clean, crisp white bed. Then waking up, showering with yummy Nuxe products before enjoying that awesome breakfast spread…BLISS!
Thanks for sharing!
