"good location"

"Very friendly and helpful staff, nice big room (we loved the kitchen facility,!), clean, quiet, great breakfast. Lots of natural light! Free access to the spa was a great benefit, we loved relaxing thereafter a day of touring. Right down the street there are cafes, a bakery, a fromagerie, and a butcher."

"Arrived for dinner having had a reservation made a week previously by the owners of the place we were staying. We were told that the restaurant was closed with no explanation why. Apparently they had contacted people who had booked but not us as it was a “foreign number”. Err, you mean you can’t dial a foreign number? And made no sense anyway as they had the details of a local. I would have been less annoyed if the tone of the conversation had not been that it was our fault. Terrible experience. Avoid."

"This was not an easy place to find but is in a lovely rural setting. The room was nice room and very stylish but not very practical : the bedside lamps set below bed height bizarrely !! We chose to stay here specifically because of its Michelin rated restaurant and wrote asking for a table as we had driven many hundreds of miles that day. They never replied and we forgot to check. As a result we found the restaurant closed. Instead, we had to go out again, which we really had not wanted to do after such a long drive earlier. Neither do they do a proper breakfast buffet on Mondays. We were offered a very unappetizing room service tray instead. We won't be rushing back here."

"The hotel is very clean and the food is very good. The local products are on the honour, you can even go to the neighbouring producers . The hotel-restaurant is warm as well as the bars. There is a very pleasant gerseis stay. If you pass through there, I strongly recommend."

"For my partner's birthday, we traveled to the French department of Gers in mid-January. We stayed at Hotel-Restaurant Le Commerce in Estang on a half-board basis for four nights. We were given a spacious room with a bathroom including a shower. Plenty of hot water, a bed with a firm mattress – we slept wonderfully! The hotel itself is beautifully decorated, with the bar and restaurant separated. We were served a typical French breakfast, supplemented with cheese and ham. In the evenings, we ate à la carte, enjoying regional dishes, delicious wines, and efficient service; we were truly spoiled culinarily! At the hotel, we received information about what there is to see in the surrounding area. For instance, we visited Labastide-d’Armagnac, a picturesque village, and Le Tour de Termes d’Armagnac, where we had a view of the Pyrenees. Cruising through the villages and enjoying the surroundings, our days were too short!"

"Wonderful chateau, Wonderful people, Wonderful food and Wonderful environs This is the first time that we have written a Tripadvisor review while still half way through a stay at an establishment. We have done so on this occasion so that fellow Tripadvisor readers feel confident to book and enjoy the 2025 summer season - just as we are currently doing. Some of the previous criticisms that we have read here, and which gave us cause for pause, are, in our very humble opinion, not justified - and therefore should be put to rest. Firstly, Bellevue is a classic French hotel particulier set in Gers. It has not been renovated to 22nd century standards , but we wouldn’t want it any other way. That is its charm, and is why we come to Gers, and to France. The hotel has however been updated to an entirely satisfactory standard, with excellent WiFi ( which even on occasion extends to the outdoor swimming pool ), perfectly acceptable bathroom facilities , and the best mattress and pillows that we have had over the last 4 weeks ( The lovely Italian hotels that we have spent time in over the last 4 weeks in Umbria and Puglia and Basilcata , however posh, have not been able to match the softness and fluffiness of Bellevue,s bedtime offerings). We obviously have only experienced one room , but the floors do not creak at all and we have slept wonderfully. In short this is a very comfortable hotel, and any throwback to the past 2 centuries is an essential part of its charm and exactly why you should come to Bellevue. Secondly the people working here could not be more welcoming and accommodating. Everyone of them. Illihana and Tom work the dining room tables beautifully. The 2 chambermaids keep the bedrooms fantastically clean. The young receptionist always has a welcoming smile and is so efficient. Emilie is so obliging - in each and every way . What more could anyone reasonably ask for? Merci Beaucoup . The mythical Charlotte is the one person we have not yet met in the 3 and a half days we have had in Bellevue so far. We are prone to letting our imaginations fly, and believe that she is kept in shackles working the kitchen stoves day and night. If so that would explain why we are so happy with the food that Illihana and Tom bring out to our table. Contrary to previous reports we believe that there is adequate choice in the set and a la carte menus. After eating in the restaurant on the first night , we immediately extended our stay by a further 2 nights. Will we get bored by the menus on offer after 8 days ? Maybe, but the quality of ingredients is excellent, and we are always suspicious of establishments offering too much choice - chefs, like surgeons, need to specialise - ask us how we know! As we are highly knowledgeable about wine ( ie we know that there is red and white, dry and sweet, tanniny and smooth, and headache inducing and headache sparing - and that is the total limit of our knowledge ) , we do what we always do - which is to give the somme"

"My review here is for the restaurant only as we did not stay at the auberge. Fine selection of classic Gers dishes with excellent foie gras, cote échine de porc, fresh fish, and a fine list of mostly local wines. The service was excellent. Special thanks to Iness and Karim for providing first-classs service and a warm welcome. Give those 2 a raise! We would recommend this restaurant to any visitors to the area and will definitely return ourselves."
