"Chambre annulée sur place alors que payée. Très mauvais accueil. Surbooking pour atterrir à 2kms… un Mercure… attention de ne pas confondre Surbooking et Dol. Une fois arrivé au Mercure 4*… Télévision qui ne fonctionne pas, plus de place sur le parking à 20:30, pas de gel douche dans la SDB… pour un surclassement en 4 étoiles… c’est limite… très limite. Il faudrait penser à se poser les bonnes questions. Personnellement je ne me les pose plus concernant ces deux établissements ; a fuir, next....

"What a beautiful place to stay! A working farm, where they grow apples and produce the best apple juice we have ever tasted. The host was welcoming, a great cook, and full of information about the local region. Why stay in a city hotel when you can experience an authentic French farm, almost like going back 100 years in time to a charming and beautiful world of green, rolling hills. Highly recommended!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Montolieu?
The best area to stay in Montolieu is within the village centre itself, as it's the heart of the "Village of Books."

This compact village is known for its numerous bookshops, art galleries, and small museums. The main street, Rue de la Mairie, is where you'll find most of the activity, including the Montolieu Book Museum and several artisan shops. The village is small enough to explore entirely on foot, with historic stone buildings and narrow lanes winding around the central square.

Couples looking for a tranquil escape will find the village centre ideal. It offers a relaxed pace, superb for browsing independent bookshops, enjoying local cuisine at a bistro, or simply strolling hand-in-hand through the historic streets.
When is the best time to go to Montolieu?
The best time to visit Montolieu is during the shoulder seasons of May, June, and September, as well as the summer months of July and August.

These months offer the most pleasant weather for exploring the village and surrounding countryside. You'll find warm, sunny days great for walking, cycling, or simply enjoying a coffee at one of the outdoor cafes. The local markets and vineyards are also in full swing during these periods, providing a real taste of the region's produce and culture.

For couples looking for a romantic escape, May, June, and September are particularly appealing. The weather is comfortably warm but not excessively hot, and the crowds are generally smaller than in the peak summer months. This allows for more relaxed visits to the bookshops, art galleries, and local restaurants, creating a more intimate experience.

Families travelling with children will find July and August to be excellent choices. The longer daylight hours mean more time for outdoor activities, and many local attractions offer special events or extended opening hours.
