My husband and I recently spent 5 nights in Arles. Galerie Huit proved to be an inspired choice for our introduction to this historically rich city. Our suite, the Marco Polo, was beautifully furnished with antiques, original doors and marble fireplaces and overlooked the narrow old street a stone's throw from the Roman theatre. Julia de Bierre has done a... More

Arles is a beautiful and ancient city, a true gem with the most amazing Roman monuments to excite the curious visitor. And Julia de Bierre’s Galérie Huit B&B is smack in the middle of it: across the road from the Roman Theater, a minute from the Colosseum, and a short stroll to Saint Trophime Cathedral and the Place de la...

My fifth stay at galerie Huit was, as usual, wonderful. Julia combines a French sens of beauty and elegance, with a British love of comfort, and her warm and generous welcome crosses all international boundaries! I've now tried all the rooms and love the fact that none of them are Hotel standardized-they contain beautiful one-of-a-kind antiques, original art pieces and... More

I was so excited when I made our reservations at Galerie Huit because it looked so beautiful in the web photos taken by the owner and our adult daugher who was with us is a photography major so staying at a gallery seemed so perfect, but we were crushed to arrive and find it looking nothing and I mean NOTHING...

Dear House Guest of a Very Few Hours, Thank you for taking the time to write an appraisal so many months after your very brief visit in June 2012. I am pleased that you noted my good nature when you decided to leave, despite the fact that, trusting you,I had taken no advance deposit for your 2 day high-season stay... More

We spent three nights at Galerie Huit in December 2012. Julia is the perfect hostess - charming, solicitous, well-informed and never intrusive. We stayed in the Barbentane room which is every bit as beautiful as the photographs suggest. The furnishings were tasteful and elegant, the wc and shower were clean and quite beautiful, and the breakfast was plentiful. I must... More

Tucked on a tiny street in Arles, Galerie Huit is an operating gallery. Julia is such a warm and wonderful person and she makes you feel so comfortable in her home. We had a great stay and enjoyed this wonderful city. We had the Marco Polo Suite and it was very comfortable and sized nicely. Breakfast was just delicious and... More

Where do I start in describing my stay at Galerie huit... I came during the Arles photography festival, and am now pretty determined to make my stay here a yearly ritual. Everything about this B&B is extraordinary! Julia (the owner) welcomes you as if you were an old friend, the staff are so friendly and helpful. Our breakfast each morning... More

We stayed at Galerie Huit for six nights. Our room was on the second floor. The room was clean and a good size with a sitting area, an attached separate water closet (with toilet and sink) and an attached bathroom (with shower and sink). It did not have a/c but we had a fan in our room and the window... More

Thank you for your kind and fair review. Your stay coincided with the preparation and hanging of the big July Photography Festival exhibition and I'm glad that you found this an interesting moment to be in the Gallery, sharing an evening glass of wine. As for me, I enjoyed talking to you both, and learning more about your fascinating professional... More

I recently stayed at Galerie Huit in Arles, and this is one of the most amazing experiences I had. The room was intricately decorated with art and furniture from different cultures and eras of the world. The overall feeling is really magical. Julia, the owner takes great pride in restoring the 17th century mansion, and I had the chance to... More

No. 1 Arles!! A really extraordinary B&B, run with real panache and attention to detail. Mdme de Bierre (the owner, who is English) welcomed me with such warmth and the room, which was HUGE, was both comfortable and well thought out. A far cry from the normal B&B. There is a gallery on the ground floor of this amazing house... More

Although you wrote this delightful review in 2011 you have returned to stay at Galerie Huit on several occasions since then. So this is just to let you know how much I appreciate my 'returnee' house-guests - it's a heart-warming seal of approval. More
