The Best Hotels Near La maison du Gasseau, by the Record

1. Le Fooding Le Fooding Guide

A former hunting lodge in the Normandie-Maine regional park, Le Manoir du Lys keeps the exposed timbers and classic facade while the interiors run quietly contemporary underneath. It's a family-run countryside hotel with substantial grounds and an outdoor pool, the kind of place where the Norman forest does most of the heavy lifting for atmosphere. The on-site restaurant has held a Michelin star for years, which gives dinner somewhere to go.

The restaurant here holds a Michelin star, but the hotel earns its keep too. This small boutique property near the center of Argentan runs bold and colorful in the common spaces, then pulls back to something quieter and more spare in the bedrooms. Normandy's countryside and D-Day sites are an easy drive, though guests seem just as happy to stay in for dinner at La Renaissance downstairs.

An 18th-century neoclassical château in the Loire Valley, less than an hour from Paris by train, now operating as a 19-room luxury boutique hotel. The French heritage authorities kept such a close eye on its restoration that the neoclassical bones are intact, while the interiors pair Jean-Baptiste Pillement's original painted work with contemporary flourishes. Versailles-inspired gardens, a modern spa, and a fine-dining restaurant round it out. The Michelin Guide awarded it 2 Keys.
