Chambres d'hôtes

A Chambre d'hôtes is lightly different from the Anglo-Saxon Bed and Breakfast. Indeed, at the origin, the B&B was developped in order to answer to the huge demand coming from those numerous tourists but also from businessmen & women who had to stay a few days in different places and could not afford the cost of a hotel. The B&B was also a means of supplementing ones' income. Today, this definition has changed and would be comparable to a chambre d'hôte but the "french chambre d'hôte" is really specific. Indeed, very often, the peculiarity but also the beauty of staying in a Chambre d'Hôte is that they are usually located in the heart of rural villages. The first objective of creating that type of "establishment" was to help the rural population & develop tourism in those villages more & more threatened by urbanism.
