Self-catering apartments in the medieval city of Briançon

Stay Briançon combines the best of both worlds: the convenience of a self-catered apartment with services you find in the best hotels. Each property is situated in the heart of Europe’s highest town and UNESCO World Heritage Site ‘Briançon’. Whether you are travelling for business or leisure, solo or in a group, we will guarantee you a fabulous place to stay.

“I’m here to make your stay as comfortable as possible in your home away from home. To complete your experience, I can put you in touch with local guides and instructors, pre-order your winter or summer Serre Chevalier lift passes, order your breakfast or evening meals, and organise your airport transfers.”
Melanie Crosby, Owner

Free linen and towels

Your booking will always include bed linen, towels, bath mat, hand towels and tea towels. Beds are prepared for your arrival. Our friends at ‘La Lavanderie’ take care of our linen and towels to ensure they are cleaned to the highest standard.

Your arrival

We love to hand you the keys personally, show you around and answer any questions you may have. On occasions though, your key may be placed in a key safe box by the front door. We will send you an information email with the property address, directions, payment info and useful links.

Free public parking

You have free parking for the full duration of your stay, at the nearby Champ de Mars car park. We also provide you with an access card so you may enter the Cité Vauban with your car (drop off bags, equipment and shopping at any time during your stay.) If travelling on your motorbike, there is often space near the apartment to park-up!

Fabulous kitchens

Our apartments have fully-equipped kitchens so you can cook to your heart and belly’s content! We can suggest local chefs and restaurants to you who can deliver meals, wine and beer if you prefer, and we provide a raclette set too!

Private internet/wifi

Each apartment has its own private wifi internet router with access code. Business travellers and those on a working holiday will enjoy a quiet place to work.

House rules

We do not accept smoking or pets in the apartments. Please save energy by only using the heating when necessary and turning lights off when you go out. We ask that you hand back the apartment as tidy as you found it on arrival (we take care of the cleaning after your departure.)

End of stay cleaning

It’s on us! We thoroughly air, clean and prepare the apartments for our next guests. There are some cleaning products provided should you need them during your stay e.g. washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, detergent), as well as a vacuum, broom, mop and sponge.


Accommodation has bags of character. It is in the old town, with a good terrace. Kitchen well equipped with washing machine & dishwasher… walking distance to lots of restaurants & shops, though flat/terrace is so nice we ate in most evenings. Large entrance lobby where it was safe for bikes.
