Albon France Hotel Review

Domaine des Buis

Albon, France

Price: $-$$

Travels with Friends Charm Rating: 85

Details- This beautiful B&B in France is a Country Manor that has been turned into one of the most charming bed and breakfasts you'll find in this price range in France. The property is owned by Hélène and Didier Kirch who live in the manor and operate the B&B. The manor buildings perch on a hill with views over their their lovely pool out to the surrounding countryside. Hélène has the heart of a decorator, and paid tremendous attention to detail when choosing decorations and fabrics for the beautiful rooms. The 6 rooms and 2 suites vary in price according to size alone. Each includes wood parquet floors, large area rugs and gorgeous tile work in the bathrooms. Of particular note are the beds which include comforters and boudoir pillows in expensive luxurious fabrics. The bathrooms include comfy robes for each guest.

Notes- The B&B is located only a short distance off the auto route connecting the Riviera and Paris. It is about two hours from Provence, one and half hours to Grenoble, and thirty minutes to Lyon making it an excellent stop if you are driving between the North and South. You may decide to extend your stay so you can relax by the pool, stroll the gardens, sample wines from nearby vintners, or take in a round of golf at an 18 hole course only one mile away. We should note that the owners speak very little English.

Quotes- "We returned to find the B&B to be just as charming as we remembered. An excellent stop for relaxing." Steven Hurley, September 2004

"This B&B represents relaxation at its finest!" Steven Hurley, March 2002.
