Hôtel Restaurant Au Val Doré

Hôtel Restaurant Au Val Doré is a welcoming address on Rue de Belgique in La Bourboule, set amid the forested hills of the Sancy Massif in the Auvergne. The town is unique in France for its arsenical bicarbonate thermal waters, historically prescribed for childhood respiratory conditions and attracting cure guests from across the country. The hotel pairs comfortable rooms — several with hardwood floors — with a restaurant offering traditional Auvergnat cooking, making it a favourite among families combining thermal treatment with mountain relaxation. The surrounding countryside gives easy access to the Banne d'Ordanche for sweeping Massif Central views, winter skiing and summer hiking around Le Mont-Dore, and the scenic Lac de Guéry. Ski lifts and sledding are within reach, and the hotel provides ski storage, a fitness centre, and a terrace for calmer seasons.
