Probably the loveliest hotel in town, this recently renovated charmer is quaint yet full of modern comforts and conveniences. There are only 52 rooms and they are moderately priced.
Strategically located close to the middle of town, it is only a few minutes walk to the beach and cafés.
The restaurant serves the specialties of the area -- anchovies, mussels, grilled sea bass, and incredible olives.
The real attractions of this historic establishment are the original works of art that grace its walls, gifts in lieu of payment from some of the most famous artists of the time. Matisse, Picasso, Maillol, and a host of others spent time in Collioure and if this hotel was good enough for them, I figured it should be good enough for me! It was . . .
