Reviews of Gîte d'étape Chez François

Basic but clean room. Kitchen if you need. Nice view, helpfull owner who gave us information about cultural events in Conques village. Simple but delicious breakfast (coffee, bread an cheese) and dinner with other tourists. Friendly dog meeting guests and walking in the garden

The room was excellent and facilities wew awesome.

The property itself was Good. My confirmation said check in at 15:00. I was not allowed to check in until 16:30 and had to wait 2,5 hours in 35 degree heat. There was an umbrella to keep out of the sun, but still very hot.

Everything.

Parking right next to the accommodation. Shared bathroom and kitchen for only three rooms. Everything is clean and nicely equipped. Friendly and helpful owner. Delicious barbecue dinner served outside for guests. A wonderful way to meet and interact with other hikers/tourists.

Lovely comfortable accommodation, with lots of indoor and outdoor areas to relax and socialise. Francois is a lovely welcoming host, with nothing too much trouble. Facilities are clean and comfortable, dinner is simple and tasty, close to cathedral and town.

Minor issue: the breakfast could be more substantial for walkers.

Francois was very kind and helpful to this solo American traveler. He provided dinner and breakfast and I found the community aspect to truly be in the spirit of the Chemin. It was a bit expensive for pilgrim lodgings but with a private room and an option for private bathing I really cannot complain.

Beautiful house with a lovely garden to relax in . Our host went over and above to accommodate us. He got up early to buy fresh bread & croissants for breakfast .

Nothing

Comfy bed, clean showers and toilets. François the host was just excellent and so friendly - and I loved the super cute doggy (Roi, if I remember correctly?) 🐶🐶🐶 and the dinner was excellent, too!! Thanks for everything!

It's a bit poorly soundproofed, but it didn't disturb my sleep because a) I was super tired and b) I had earplugs with me - recommend bring those!

as soon as my friend and I arrived, we were welcomed by the owner. He was very nice and friendly, explained and showed us around. We booked a double room but because there where not a lot of guests, we got a bigger one! The beds were comfortable. On request dinner can be eaten in the gîte.

Unfortunately we had a few bug-friends who wanted to stay with us in the room. They are not dangerous but it was a bit annoying that we had to check the mattresses before sleeping. Mosquito-nets on the windows could be useful.

Gite was right on the GR65 trail. The room and facilities were clean. The host was very helpful and friendly. The food was excellent.

No major issues of complaint.

Great location and welcome from François.

Basic meals, towels only the size of handkerchiefs,

When we arrived in the rain the lady allowed us in early. The room was clean and functional for us and close to great food (Chez Dani for a huge, tasty and great priced lunch with lovely staff) and Conques is beautiful with limited accommodation in season, so we were fortunate to find availablity though it was pricier than other areas.

Absolutely nothing.

Quiet beautiful setting

François was very rude and aggressive towards me when I stipulated that I thought 80 € was expensive, he didnt let me finish and abused me verbally for quiet awhile. My issue was that the booking was made for 2 when in fact i was alone and that I wouldnt get dinner nor breakfast for a hostel night !! Eventually he realized that i had been placed in a dormitory rather than a private room. The next day he offered me breakfast i guess he was feeling remorseful but that didnt make up for it. The town offers every night a sort of vigil in the church, really beautiful, the only thing is that there is no lights leading to the gite on very steep and treacherous steps !!

It was clean and spacious

There is no information about what is included with dinner, eg price of wine if ask for second glass.
