Looking out at Mount Canigou, which is cloaked in snow year-round and set in one of the most unspoilt valleys in French Catalonia, the Chateau de Riell is a haven of elegance amongst the parasol pines and oleander trees. This hotel is made for all of those who appreciate sophisticated beauty with its baroque interiors and a restaurant that celebrates the flavor of the local lamb and seafood. Sports enthusiasts can choose from the huge range of outdoor activities against a backdrop of breathtaking scenery. And even the most hardened travelers will be impressed by the ambience that Biche Barthelemy has created in her castle such as the “Out of Africa” bar with its safari theme and the dacha straight out of a Russian novel where you can sit and read or enjoy your breakfast. A splendid escape in Romanesque Roussillon.
The property is closed for business during the year over the following dates- 03Nov09- 29Mar10
