The 16 Best Wine Hotels in the Languedoc

The Languedoc, a historical coastal region in the South of France, has long lured visitors who are on the trail to taste the area's renowned organic, IGP, and AOC wines.

There are (naturally) some excellent working vineyards that have rooms for guests too. Our hotel experts have scoured the length and breadth of the region and have chosen a concise list selected on their design, amenities, location, and price point. So whether you are planning a romantic escape, a family break or a getaway with friends — you will find something to suit you here.
