Gastronomic French hotelsSure, lovers of dining and gastronomic adventures known as “foodies” love traveling and sampling the local fare in all  countries…but France, the world capital of gastronomy, has to be considered the ultimate foodie Mecca. Besides its famous  haute cuisine, France is home to a huge and rich range of regional styles of cooking, each exquisite in its own way. From the crepes of Normandy to the wine-soaked casseroles of Burgundy to the garlicky bouillabaisse of Marseilles and everything  in between, eating your way through France is some travelers’ idea of the perfect vacation.

While consulting your guide books for the region’s best restaurants, travellers may find that some of the best are in gastronomic French hotels. So when choosing a place to stay, foodies would be wise to choose a hotel with a respected restaurant, especially since some will offer attractive packages for those who stay and dine there. Plus, you can indulge to the fullest, as there’s no driving back to your hotel after a couple of bottles of local Bordeaux!

One network of hotels has been catering to lovers of fine French regional cuisine since 1967. Inter Hotel is a network of independent two- and three-star hotels all over France, many with restaurants on site or close by that are destinations in themselves. And they offer packages for two that include a breakfast and a dinner “chez eux” (at their place) along with your accommodation, so you already will have a great meal to look forward to as soon as you book your stay!

The Inter Hotel website allows foodie travelers to search their hotel-restaurants and hotels with restaurant partners by region. Search for special offers in French hotels in Auvergne with charming restaurants, or try a gastronomic weekend in France at a hotel in Brittany and enjoy the bracing sea air along with the seafood. The site lists all amenities at the hotel and has beautiful photographs that show the atmosphere of both the accommodations and the restaurants, so you can know what sort of experience to expect. All participants in the Inter Hotel network are committed to regional authenticity in all aspects of their services, from the decor to the cuisine, so guests are assured of a distinct and memorable stay. And once you find your perfect gastronomic French hotel, Inter Hotel lets you book any of their member hotels online from their website. Special offers in French hotels in the Inter Hotel network are also viewable and bookable online.
