At Benvengudo we recognize that pets are like family and are welcome. We have a limited number of rooms that are suitable for guests travelling with pets; please see our Reservations page for current rates. Pets must be kept on a leash when in the hotel or on hotel grounds.

Pets are not allowed in the hotel restaurant. No more than two pets per room are allowed. Pets must not be left unattended in the room to avoid property damages. For reasons of hygiene, it is strictly forbidden to let pets access to bedding and sofas/armchairs in the room. Guests are responsible for all property damage resulting from their pet.

We aim to do our best to accommodate guests with a disability. We have a limited number of wheelchair accessible guest rooms with showers.

We welcome the opportunity to assist you with advice on local activities, events and entertainment, special experiences and even airport and train (TGV) transfers.

We will have to charge any damage done by the guest in his room, or any stolen object belonging to the hotel, prior or after the check-out. An inventory of fixtures will be done before and after the stay for the “Côté Petite Maison” and “Côté Grande Maison” apartments.

For any belonging forgotten after your check-out, the postal fees will be at your charge.

We constantly challenge ourselves to provide the right environment for our guests and team members through the promotion of environmental awareness. We train our team members to incorporate good environmental practice in all aspects by periodically reviewing our practices, procedures and objectives.

Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these hotel policies shall come under the jurisdiction of most competent courts of France.
