Fodor's Review:

This modern interpretation of Drôme-style stone-and-wood design has floral displays, airy picture windows over the garden, and guest rooms with a touch of contemporary Danish influence. Next to the main road, sleeping with the windows open can make for a noisy night—though the air-conditioning largely solves that. The restaurant is known for its truffle menu served from December to March and imaginative and light fare such as mille-feuille de foie gras with artichokes and lamb from Rémuzat. Pros: bright and cheerful; flowers everywhere; friendly receptionists. Cons: close to main road; signs of tourist-schmerz; steep staircase; $30-dollar breakfast!
