Chateau Stay

Lovely Chateau in the middle of this little village. Dining area in a central courtyard. Great service and the food was delicious. Out room was off a circular staircase which was very quaint. The room was was quite dark and somber, but clean and large. Staff were charming and took good care of us. We stopped here on our way to Cannes and to visit Carcassone

Feel like a Modern Day Knight Templar

Tucked away in Couiza some 60 km south of Carcasonne, this magnificently restored castle transfers you from modern day France to the days of old just by stepping through the main door. 

On the east bank of the Aude river, you can relax in complete solitude and at night be soothed to sleep by the following river.

This place has history, character and charm. The hotel owners are fantastic - responsive, multi-lingual and quick to please. And on top of this the food is superb - if you like French cuisine.

The bedrooms also have character and are in keeping with the castle. The beds were very comfortable.

Favorite stay during recent visit to Europe

This boutique hotel is definitely unique, a castle which was built in 1540. What a thrill for us to be able to stay in such a wonderful facility. There are no elevators, so it was a good climb up the 59 steps to our floor, but we welcomed the experience and exercise. The steps are also unique as they are within one of the four turrets of the castle. They go around and around.

A unique castle chateau like experience

An authentic medieval castle like experience . A first class restaurant and bar is also part of this experience. Back rooms overlook the Aude river. Don't expect to handle your luggage ( even hand luggage) as the stairs are all original stone...wodnerfully uneven.

Magical, gracious hospitality

We, a group of 11 people including US university presidents, their spouses, and colleagues, were instantly charmed by the warmth that greeted us as we entered this 16th century era chateau turned into a hotel. A hotel worker took us to our rooms which were comfortable and well appointed overlooking the river Aude. The meals were delicious and the owner, Vincent, was clearly a wine connoisseur who guided us as if he were a professional sommelier. The group gathered often in the evenings in the courtyard for an aperitif and conversation. Even in October the outdoor pool was refreshing. We planned to stay for 8 nights but a sudden flash flood that overtook the region interrupted our plans. The owners, Vincent and Isabel, swiftly took action, ushering us safely out and making alternate reservations at a nearby hotel. They were caring and kind, ensuring our satisfaction while in the midst of a devastating flood. They will open again in April 2019. If you are looking for a truly French experience in gorgeous country with expert hospitality, the chateau is the place to go.
