    "A very pleasant, relaxing three days - which we will repeat." (107438037)

    Very warm welcome, which extended over the three day stay. Interesting discussions and information on the region. The evening meal was of good quality, well-served and the proprietor clearly has a good knowledge of wine, this made the occasion more interesting. Low-key, efficient and friendly.

    Auberge Du Balestié, Mirepoix - Reviews & Ratings

    "The auberge was run by an English couple....and my first thoughts were that this was not going to work in France. However, the atmosphere and the food was such that I never felt that it lost any of that "Gallic charm". The couple were both very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. For people like ourselves who like walking the area had plenty of attractions and the nearby town of Mirepoix was a gem. The auberge is actually on the long-distance path that links Rome with Santiago De Compostela in Spain. Rooms and bed were comfortable and of a good size. Everything worked and it was clean." (107157733)

    Friendly staff; good food; pleasant room; quiet; great walks nearby

    "Definitely the best Auberge we have stayed in in France for years." (97434727)

    The Hotel and the Staff were Excellent - we had only let them know at the last minute that my wife was in a wheelchair and they could not have done more to ensure all facilities were there for her. The food was absolutely excellent and reasonbly priced, plus the service could not have been better. Excellent is the only word for the Auberge du Balestie. We will definitely be returning there for a visit.

Although the menu in the restaurant is a little limited, the food served is of a very good quality. The hotel is well placed to provide an excellent base for touring. I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel even though it is at the budget end of the market" (3304537344)

    "Overall we were delighted with the auberge. Had we been staying for more than 2 nights use of the swimmimg pool would have been a big advantage. A car is an essential when staying there but with the use of one you are in an ideal place to visit Carcassonne, the coast ( 60 mins on autoroute) and 5 mins from delightful town of Mirepoix." (3304934739)

    Views and setting of auberge. Simple clean value for money accommodation. Excellent food from friendly people.

    rather quiet in the auberge but this was because of time we went.
