Hôtel l'Équipe

The eight room categories cover several configurations, from double rooms for two guests to family rooms accommodating up to six. Room sizes range from 14 to 28 m². Every room has a private bathroom with a shower and a flat-screen TV; carpets and heating are also provided. The rooms include double, triple, quadruple and family options, with different bed arrangements depending on the category.

Some rooms have a balcony and mountain views, while others overlook the slopes, the valley or a quiet street. The largest rooms, measuring 28 m², offer layouts suited to families and small groups. The floors are accessible by stairs only. When choosing your room, the main differences are capacity, whether there is a balcony and the view from the window.

The hotel offers free private parking, family rooms and a bar. Breakfast is available as a continental or buffet option, while the on-site café, packed lunches and children's menus add to the dining choices. The restaurant serves traditional French cuisine and closes during the summer. Shared areas include a lounge with a TV, as well as a terrace and outdoor furniture for enjoying days in the mountains.

For winter stays, ski-to-door access, a ski school and ski storage make days on the slopes easier. In warmer weather, activities include hiking, walking, cycling, bike tours, horse riding, canoeing, kayaking and fishing. A golf course is less than 3 km away, and the hotel also has a tennis court. Luggage storage, board games and daily housekeeping round out the facilities.

Le Sauze is a mountain resort in the Ubaye Valley, in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. The village and slopes extend across an Alpine landscape of forests, peaks and open views over the valley. In winter, stays revolve around skiing and the ski lifts; in warmer weather, the trails draw walkers and mountain bikers. The atmosphere suits travellers looking for outdoor activities and a mountain setting rather than an urban stopover.

The ski resort is spread around several lifts, including Savonette 1, 140 m from the hotel. Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul Church is in the area, while Barcelonnette, 6 km away, is the main town in the valley. Its museum explores local history and the town's links with Mexico; Parc de la Sapinière offers space for a walk. Barcelonnette's shops and services in the valley can be reached by car. The hotel has free private parking, useful for exploring the surrounding area.

In winter, the slopes and ski-to-door access set the pace of the day; the nearby lifts make early starts easier. From late spring to autumn, hiking and cycling routes offer a different way to explore the landscape. A trip to Barcelonnette can round out a day in the mountains with a museum visit and a walk around the town. For longer nature outings, Mercantour National Park offers high-mountain scenery and hiking routes. Conditions vary with altitude and season: summer activities suit snow-free days, while winter is devoted to snow sports.
