Stay in Carefully Selected Premium B&Bs & Boutique Hotels

At France Just For You, we believe traveling is more than just going from an attraction to a museum. We organize France tour packages where you will have the chance to interact with French people, with stays in premium accommodation we have selected just for you, through our meticulous selection process.

We personally visit and test every B&B and boutique hotel we recommend. We have met the hosts, seen the rooms, and experienced the warm welcome our travelers can expect.

Interact with French People

You will feel like a cherished guest in a friend’s home. Your hosts will be available to spend some time with you.

Enjoy a high level of comfort

Large beds, Italian showers, rooms with independent access, English speaking hosts, all in lovely and unique locations. 

Stay in charming and intimate B&Bs

French B&Bs are limited to 5 rooms, so our travelers enjoy a quiet, intimate environment.

Feel Like a Guest, Not a Tourist

One of the joys of staying in a French B&B is the opportunity to meet local people and experience French hospitality firsthand. 

We personally know each family who will take care of you during your stay. They are delighted to share advice about their region, suggest a favorite restaurant, recommend a scenic walk, or tell you about local traditions that you might otherwise miss.

Rather than feeling like just another room number, you’ll be welcomed as a guest.

Premium Comfort

We carefully select properties that offer the level of comfort our travelers expect: spacious rooms, queen-sized or larger beds, modern private bathrooms, thoughtful amenities, beautiful surroundings, and hosts who speak at least some English.

These are the kind of accommodations you would be unlikely to find on your own.

 

 

We Select the Right Room Just for You

This is one of the details that makes France Just For You different.

Because we personally visit the accommodations we recommend, we have seen the individual rooms with our own eyes.

When planning your trip, we take your preferences into account and, whenever possible, reserve the room that will suit you best. Some travelers prefer a particularly quiet room. Others enjoy a garden view, twin beds for friends or siblings traveling together, or extra space to relax after a day of exploring.

These details may seem small, but they can make a real difference to your comfort throughout your trip.

 

 

Small Properties, Personal Service

French B&Bs are limited to five guest rooms, creating a relaxed and intimate atmosphere.

Without large crowds or busy hotel lobbies, you’ll enjoy a more personal experience and have the opportunity to connect with your hosts and fellow travelers if you wish.

Combined with carefully selected boutique hotels, these accommodations help you experience a warmer, more authentic side of France while enjoying a high level of comfort.

Whether you’re spending two weeks exploring the Loire Valley, discovering Brittany’s coastline, or enjoying the villages of Provence, we’ll make sure you have comfortable, authentic places to stay and hosts who are delighted to welcome you.

Enjoy a Warm French Welcome!

Have you ever had dinner at a "Table d'Hôtes"?

A "Table d’Hôtes" is a full 3-4 course home-cooked dinner, including the house wine.

It is an opportunity to have dinner with your host at their home, enjoy a local meal, and interact with fellow guests from many different countries. Since everybody is sitting at the same table, this is an excellent way to make friends with people you would have never met otherwise. You might also exchange some insiders' tips and decide to adjust your plans for the following day!

A Table d’Hôtes is always a memorable experience!

Hotels in Paris, boutique hotels, apartment rentals, gîtes... There are many different types of accommodation in France

FAQs about French Bed & Breakfasts

  • Self catering called Gîte in French : An independent house/appartement rented for several days. It is equipped with a kitchen and you do not interact with the owner.
  • Country Inn called Auberge : An owner-operated establishment providing lodging and meals (generally breakfast and dinner). Some provide dinners to overnight guests only, others have full-service restaurants open to the public. Typically 10 or more guest rooms.
  • Bed and Breakfast (B&B) called chambres d'hôtes : An owner-occupied dwelling with 1 to 5 guest rooms, plus common areas for guests, usually separated from the owner's quarters. Sometimes you can have homemade diner at the host's table. You feel like you're staying with friends or family.

Bed & Breakfast we selected for you are all of a high level of comfort, always with private bathroom.

As we know that it matters to you, we have ONLY selected places with wider beds (queen size, at least).

Your hosts will take great care of you but, contrary to hotels, do not expect « room service », valet de parking and sometimes there are no TV in the room.

French Bed and Breakfasts are inspected and rated by different government agencies or associations that check the level of comfort, health codes and the quality of the welcome. However, do not forget that you are at people’s place, not in a hotel.

While inspections remain a significant tool for measuring the quality of a B&B, our frequent visits are generally the best review.

For all travelers' comfort, pets are not allowed in most places, we are sorry.

Of course, towels and sheets are always provided. 

All B&Bs and boutique-hotels we select have hair dryers, however, they are not always "professional hair dryers". 

Shampoo and soap will be provided in 95% of the places.

If you can, we recommend to have a cell phone with you - it is easier for you to reach us or your hosts if you get delayed on the road. Check in your home country, you might be able to get an International Plan for the length of your trip. 

If you can't have a cell phone or an internet device, you can give our contacts to your relatives at home and in case of emergency, we will reach you at the B&B.

 

We select accommodations with hosts who can communicate in English. 

Some of our hosts are fluent and other can interact with you if you speak slowly - more importantly all of them are happy to meet with travelers...and happy to communicate.
