Pros:

auberge sympa , personnel aussi, mais le ménage et les lits non faits durant la durée séjour m'ont gêné : l'éco responsabilité que je pratique à l'année à ses limites : la prestation devrait être au niveau du tarif il me semble ? j'adhère au concept de me pas changer les serviettes ou les draps , mais ma compagne étant un peu maniaque du ménage à un peu tiqué aussi ;)

More staff would help
Pros:

Located in the historic village Mont-Dauphin, the hotel is pretty basic. Rooms are clean but spartan. Long waiting time for check in because the limited staff had to do the shop, the bar, the restaurant and the hotel. Breakfast was limited choice but the bread and viennoiserie were excellent.

Pros:

Hébergement très calme, propriétaire vraiment sympathique et arrangeant, par contre les WC sont séparés de la chambre mais c'est un petit point par rapport à l'ambiance de cette auberge.

Perfect stop, great food and lovely hosts
Pros:

What a beautiful find on our way up to the Alps! Hidden in a picturesque garrison village, this little hotel was the perfect place to rest after a long drive across France. The hosts were as friendly and charming as could be. Dinner was amazing, they even offered to keep some food for us if we arrived later than we had planned. Breakfast was fresh with local cheese and jam. The rooms are simple, but very clean and comfortable. The rooms were very large and plenty of storage. Parking was safe nearby so we didn’t have to unload the entire car. Kids want to come back again soon. Very family friendly!

Excellente cuisine,service qui laisse à désirer
Pros:

Notre séjour n’a pas été à la hauteur de nos attentes,
Une seule petite serviette par personne dans la chambre, très bruyant, chambre qui d’ailleurs n’a pas été nettoyé au deuxième jour
Service à table notre deuxième soir.un verre cassé qui n’est pas remplacé ,et reste cassé au sol,durant tout le repas.. malgré trois relances,car présence d’enfants à la table voisine. Il m’a été répondu « je fini le service et je le ramasse » l’apéritif contenu dans le verre cassé n’a pas non plus été remplacé,malgré deux relances. Au dessert j’ai dit qu’il était maintenant inutile de me l’apporter,car trop tard..
nous avons pris deux glace en pot au dessert,et là,on nous les apporte et on nous explique que les cuillères sont sous le couvercle,effectivement,un petit palet en bois,qui un fois planté dans la glace,se casse immédiatement.. nous sommes dans un restaurant,pas dans un snack
Présence de nombreuses mouches sur le buffet du petit déjeuner,une cloche ou un ventilateur semble nécessaire.
En revanche,je tiens à préciser que la nourriture proposée est excellente,et de très bonne qualité.
Nous avons fait part au patron,de notre mécontentement,il nous a écouté et nous a expliqué être en manque de personnel. Il n’a malheureusement proposé aucun geste commercial.

Best Burger in France!
Pros:

If you happen to be in Mont Dauphin this is the place to go for a great lunch. Not only is the building a tribute to history, located in the center of this fortified city, it is the best place ever for eating what I believe to be the best burger in the world! Perfectly cooked, made with 2 types of local cheese, the bun toasted to perfection...it looked so big when I was served at first I had intended to share but in the end apologized for not sharing, it was too good to give up!

The other food was good too if you're not a burger fan. Everything is made fresh.

In the summer the back terrace must be great with its outside tables. would recommend you reserve in the summer season.

You wont be disappointed. I hope to go back, one day....

We'd recommend this place
Pros:

Lovely atmospheric hotel. We enjoyed a fantastic meal - best cote de boeuf we've ever tasted. A good way to end le tour du queyras. Friendly family run. Room was traditional and comfortable. Nice garden.
