Château de Creissels
Historic château boutique with contemporary updates — antique furniture meets proper modern bathrooms. Intimate and quietly refined without being stuffy. More serious countryside retreat than Instagram-friendly resort.
Book the Junior Castle Suite Prestige (40 m²) for Versailles parquet flooring, walnut panelling, a bathtub in the tower, and viaduct views — it's the showpiece room
Why It Matters
The oldest hotel in Millau, operating since 1960 in an authenticated 12th-century castle. The restaurant runs in a vaulted medieval guard room. Direct views of the Millau Viaduct — one of the world's tallest bridges — from the pool, terrace, and top-tier rooms. Listed with Tablet Hotels.
A genuine 12th-century medieval castle sitting at the edge of Millau with direct sightlines to the famous Millau Viaduct. Converted into a hotel in 1960, it's the oldest hotel in the area — and it knows it. The 22 rooms and 4 junior suites split between the historic château section (old parquet floors, fireplaces, stone walls) and a more contemporary annex wing. The restaurant works out of the original guard room and vaulted stone vault, or the rampart terrace when the weather cooperates. Small outdoor pool, a gym, billiards room, and library fill out the on-site options. It punches above its price point.
Where You'll Stay
12 room types available
Accessible Twin Room
The property's dedicated accessible room at 25 m², configured for reduced-mobility guests. Twin beds. Note that some common areas and the pool may still present accessibility challenges due to the château's historic configuration.
25 sqm
Classic Double Room
A step up to 20 m² with a double bed. Decorated with period or contemporary furniture. More breathing room than the standard category without yet reaching the château's historic character of the superior tier.
20 sqmJunior Castle Suite
The entry-level suite experience in the historic château section. Original parquet flooring preserved. Bright room looking onto the park and its tall trees. Shower room. At 30 m² it's genuinely spacious by this property's standards.
30 sqmJunior Castle Suite Prestige
The top room in the house. On the upper floor of the oldest part of the château — Versailles-style parquet flooring and walnut wood panelling give it a genuinely palatial feel. Bathroom in the tower with a full bathtub. Sleeps up to 4 (supplement applies for 3+). Direct view onto the Millau Viaduct. This is the one to book for a special occasion.
king + two singles · 40 sqmJunior Contemporary Suite with Terrace
Contemporary counterpart to the castle prestige suite. Also 40 m², sleeps 2–3, with a private terrace. Modern finish in the annex wing — if you prefer clean lines over antiques, this is the suite pick.
40 sqmJunior Suite with Balcony
Sleeps up to 3 at 20 m² — smaller than the castle suite but with the bonus of a private balcony. Good pick for families with a young child or a trio traveling together.
20 sqmSingle Room
Compact room for solo travelers. Mix of historic château and contemporary sections depending on assignment. At 12–15 m² these are the smallest on the property — functional and comfortable but don't expect to spread out.
13 sqmStandard Double Room
Entry-level double at 12–15 m². Honest value for the château experience without the extras. Decorated with antique or contemporary furniture depending on which section of the building. Garden or viaduct views vary by room.
13 sqmStandard Twin Room
Twin-bed option at 12–17 m². Good for two friends or colleagues who want separate beds without paying suite prices. Range in size means the exact room varies.
14 sqmSuperior Castle Room
At 25 m² this is where the castle's character really shows — think period furniture, wooden floors, and thick stone walls. Located in the historic château section. Worth the upgrade from standard if you want the full medieval atmosphere.
25 sqmSuperior Contemporary Double Room with Terrace or Balcony
Contemporary style in the annex wing with the key bonus of a private terrace or balcony. At 18 m² the room itself isn't large, but the outdoor space makes up for it. Views onto the garden.
18 sqmSuperior Twin Room with Terrace
Twin configuration with a private terrace — the outdoor space is the draw here. Contemporary finish in the annex section at 16 m².
