Logis hôtel du Terreau

After a skiing trip we needed somewhere to stay on a Sunday night prior to getting a flight from Nice the next day. Plenty of hotels available but not so many restaurants. Being a larger town, Manosque seemed to have places open, which is what drew us to the hotel. I wasn't expecting a huge amount but this turned out to be a lovely hotel. Yes, it's a bit dated, but that's a good thing in an old hotel in a mediaeval town. We stayed in the room in the picture; the family room with the beam poking out of the roof. It's three storeys up and yes, there's no lift, it being an older hotel. This didn't bother us, but it may bother people who are less fit and / or have huge bags to lug around. The owner was very helpful and showed us on a map where to eat that evening. Breakfast was a simple French affair with pains au chocolat, croissants and baguettes but it was all fresh and tasty. Good juices and coffee. We all slept well and the room was very quiet. Manosque is also lovely. Everything in walking distance and well worth a stop over. This place is now on our list of places to stay in the area.

Great location There were many restaurants and bars. It should be stressed that a great Japanese restaurant opened recently as neighborhood of this hotel.
