Diverse Directions offers a wide range of options for your overnight accommodations -- from simple and clean
2-star
economy inns to 4-star luxury hotels loaded with amenities -- the choice is yours! You select the class of hotel that most appeals to you and best
suits your budget; we prepare a list hotels we recommend in the hotel
class you've selected. Upon your review and approval of our recommendations, we
reserve your accommodations and provide you with confirmation of your
reservations.
Whichever class of hotel you choose,
we're confident you'll be utterly charmed by the warmth and hospitality of these
gracious, locally-owned establishments often steeped in centuries of history but
possessing as well all the conveniences of home. Our clients are consistently
pleased with their hotel accommodations because our unique, tailor-made approach
recognizes that every customer's needs are unique.
To select the category of hotel which most appeals to you and best suits your budget, please refer to the following

At Diverse Directions, we understand the important role hotel accommodations play
in creating a sense of satisfaction with your overall travel experience. As such, we have visited, inspected and, in many cases,
stayed in the hotels in which our customers stay. Before playing
host to our customers, hotel owners must demonstrate a capacity to meet the special needs of bicycle tourists.
As such, you can expect a friendly reception -- and in most
cases, by an English speaker -- and to be provided with a secure place to park your bicycle overnight.
Customers traveling in France will be
delighted by the quality of the restaurants found in many of their hotels. And in
some cases, guests may purchase a meal plan -- referred to as demi-pension --
with their accommodations. The demi-pension package includes the cost of breakfast, dinner,
and your hotel room for an economical price. Dinners at your hotel will be of the
gourmet variety, consisting of three to five courses, over which you will be
expected to linger lovingly. Please note that during certain times of year, some
hotels require the purchase of the demi-pension package.
Once you have placed your order, we will provide a list of hotels from which to
choose, including each hotel's website address.
