The Top 31 Hotels Near La Maison Odette
-
-
A 12th-century château perched above Creissels, the rooms dressed in careful antiques but feeling more boutique hotel than castle bedchamber. The rooftop pool looks straight out at the Millau Viaduct, which is either very dramatic or very French, probably both. Dinner runs through the old guard room and vaulted stone cellar, with seasonal local fare that takes its sourcing seriously. A Michelin Selected Hotel.
-
A castle outside Sommières that has burned down once and been rebuilt, which gives it a certain credibility. Château de Pondres is a ten-room boutique hotel spread between the historic keep and a contemporary annex by the pool, with nearly forty acres of parkland on all sides and a spa carved into an old stone vault. The fine-dining restaurant, La Canopée, looks out over the gardens, should you manage to leave them.
-
A rooftop terrace that used to be a watchtower sets the tone at this bed and breakfast on a quiet village square near Uzès, at the foot of the Cévennes. Rooms have names like "Butterfly Dreams" and "Warrior's Rest," and each one mixes old stone walls with modern furniture in a way that manages not to feel contrived. There's a small spa with a rooftop jacuzzi and an infrared sauna. Breakfast is generous, dinner on the terrace happens when the season allows. One Michelin Key.
-
A lovingly restored country estate outside Montpellier, spread across 120-odd acres of meadows, vineyards, and old-growth trees that take the concept of a garden quite seriously. The Michelin Guide awarded it 2 Keys. Rooms differ wildly, from Belle Époque reds and lavenders to grayscale rooms furnished with accordion lamps, which is a choice. Freestanding tubs, hidden doors, and private terraces appear throughout, and the on-site restaurant leans hard into Slow Food principles.

-
-
A working vineyard just outside Montpellier where the roses and the pool and the sundeck conspire to make you feel you've earned a week off. This boutique hotel holds twenty-six rooms and suites designed by Raymond Morel, whose eye runs more toward city chic than rustic charm, which turns out to be a nice surprise out here in the Languedoc countryside. A full spa and a restaurant round things out. Michelin has given it one Key.
-
-
Two lodges on stilts at the foot of the Pic de Vissou, both cantilevered over forested hills so they seem to float. It's a boutique stay down a quiet country road outside Cabrières, about an hour from Montpellier, and the two-lodge format means you're essentially booking a private hillside to yourself. Blonde wood interiors, a Jacuzzi terrace, open-air kitchen, and a natural infinity pool. Breakfast arrives in a basket each morning. Dinner can be arranged, if you ask nicely.
-
Rooms and apartments open directly onto fairway or garrigue at this contemporary golf and spa resort outside Montpellier, built around bioclimatic principles rather than bolted-on green credentials. The 84 rooms, apartments, and a private villa draw natural light and air through considered design, while permaculture gardens supply a kitchen leaning Mediterranean. The spa, the shared terraces, and the quiet corners all coexist without crowding each other out.
-
The Cinq Mondes spa, with its sauna, hammam, and pool, is the quiet centerpiece of this small, luxurious Provençal domaine just outside Uzès. Rooms and suites are few but generously proportioned, the bathrooms verging on theatrical, and the grounds spread wide enough to forget other guests exist. A bistronomic restaurant and a lounge round things out for those who surface from the stonework and lavender long enough to eat.

-
Three eco-lodges tucked into the Provençal garrigue outside Nîmes, built entirely from local and sustainable materials and running on solar and heat-pump systems. The carbon footprint is minimal; the comfort is not: Sofitel-grade beds, rain showers, and an acoustic guitar left out in case inspiration strikes. Bien Loin d'Ici means "far from everything," and for once the name does the work.
-
-
Art Deco bones, a spa, and rooms ranging from suites to full residences make this Nîmes landmark a serious hotel stay. It sits between the Maison Carrée and the Jardin de la Fontaine, which is almost unfairly well positioned. Hemingway, Picasso, and Ava Gardner were regulars, and the hotel has leaned into that legacy with a bar named after the least glamorous of the three. Pierre Gagnaire's restaurant DUENDE is on site for when the brasserie feels too casual.
-
A 17th-century house in the old center of Uzès with nine rooms, each one slightly different from the last the way historic buildings insist on being. Ceilings run improbably tall, the staircase commands attention, and the period bones sit comfortably alongside contemporary interiors. A spa with a Roman bath and hammam is tucked downstairs. The one-Michelin-Key hotel holds a restaurant that earned a Michelin star, which makes it easy to never leave the building.
-
-
A grand spiral staircase anchors this boutique hotel inside an opulent mansion a few blocks from Nîmes' Roman amphitheater. The Rouge restaurant gets the dramatics right with scarlet arching walls, while a library lined with jewel-toned sofas and vintage cocktail carts handles the quiet hours. Rooms run to hardwood floors and boldly tiled bathrooms, but the open-air courtyard, plunge pool and all, is where guests tend to linger longest.
-
La Grande-Motte was built from scratch in the 1960s as a modernist Mediterranean utopia, and the pyramid-shaped apartment blocks still raise eyebrows. Hôtel La Plage is the quieter neighbor: a low-lying, geometric luxury beach hotel with floor-to-ceiling glass, natural wood, and private balconies opening onto ocean views. The private beach club, with white umbrellas and a shoreside cocktail bar, makes summer here feel fairly civilized.
-
The eight guest rooms here were once the family bedrooms of the château's original owners, and the marble fireplaces and gilded mirrors stayed when the suitcases left. It's a wine-estate hotel in the Languedoc, with antique furnishings alongside king beds and Nespresso machines. The pool faces the stately facade, the spa leans Mediterranean, and the winery runs yoga, vineyard picnics, and cycling routes that trail some Tour de France roads.
-
-
A stylist and a photographer own this 14-room boutique hotel in central Nîmes, which explains why every sightline ends on something worth looking at: brocade canopy beds, vintage claw-foot tubs, antiques arranged for intrigue rather than propriety, caged birds. Outside, cloistered Provençal garden, cascading bougainvillea, a marble fountain, and a jade pool. Nîmes runs darker and more cerebral than the rest of Provence, and the hotel leans into that rather than fighting it.
-
-
A building that's been standing since before anyone had strong opinions about minimalist furniture now houses this boutique hotel beside Uzès's grand neo-Romanesque cathedral. The owners have a habit of rescuing historic structures, and the interiors reward the effort: sleek modernist pieces and mosaic-tile bathrooms sit inside walls that predate them by centuries. A rooftop terrace with wide views and an outdoor pool round things out, with a bar pouring local wines and tapas below.
-
Tucked between Picpoul vineyards and the Thau Lagoon, this small luxury hotel belongs to the Tarbouriech family, who happen to be the area's most famous oyster farmers. Rooms split between the old manor and its outbuildings are handsome and lively, two on-site restaurants and a lagoon-side oyster bar all feature the family's catch, and the spa uses oysters in treatments that resist any reasonable description. Yes, the spa.
-
-
A restored military barracks inside the medieval walls of Aigues-Mortes, Les Remparts is a boutique hotel where the exposed stone is thick enough to repel a siege and the freestanding bathtubs suggest you've come in peace. Rooms are individually decorated with bold accents and contemporary furniture, some with fireplaces and views of the 13th-century Tower of Constance. There's an indoor pool, a spa using local Camargue pink salts, and a cocktail bar that opens onto a panoramic terrace.
-
The spa alone justifies the drive: it lives inside a refurbished stone tower, with a sauna, Jacuzzi, and hammam open all year. This wooded countryside retreat in Ardèche sits outside the tiny village of Faugères, rooms done up in nature photography, colorful mosaics, and eclectic objects from everywhere. Stone walls and valley terraces feature throughout, and warmer months bring a pool overlooking the surrounding green.
-
A stone château in the Occitan village of Collias, looking out over the UNESCO-listed Gorges du Gardon, with a history long enough that the 18th-century façade counts as the modern wing. Eight bedrooms sit inside all that layered architecture, fitted out with every comfort you'd expect from a boutique luxury hotel. The estate's park and pool make it easy to stay put, though the Pont du Gard and Uzès are close enough to feel virtuous about visiting.
