Les Agneaux

I stayed two nights while on a weekend hiking trip. I've rarely slept so well. The rooms are simple and full of pine, the way I like them. It's spotlessly clean. The owners are friendly. The prices are reasonable. There's a comfy common room with games and books. I took the half-pension plan and while the dinner wasn't anything spectacular, it was a perfectly fine meal. The breakfast is quite good by French standards, with fruit, yogurt, cheese, ham, home made bread and jams, and flaky croissants. The hotel is on the main road, but if you get a room on the back it's silent. Even on the front, I can't imagine there's much traffic at night. There are nice views in all direction. The village is quite sweet with a few small bars and restaurants, and lots of fountains. I noticed that there's a bus stop right in front of the hotel. I gather it only passes three times a day, but in theory you could get here by bus from Grenoble or Briancon. One note: the wi-fi was ok in the common areas, but didn't reach my room. I was way up on the top floor, so that might explain it, but do ask if this matters. Also, there's no elevator so ask for a room on a lower floor if you have lots of luggage.
