What Are the Best Hotels in Hyères? 5 Bright and Airy Options
In the mood for a chic getaway under the sun of the French Riviera? Head to Hyères-les-Palmiers, where you can stroll through the narrow streets of the old town, discover the artistic treasures of the Villa Noailles and the Fondation Carmignac, and take in the endless horizon from the beaches. Here’s our selection of the most beautiful hotels in Hyères.
1. Lilou Hotel
The hotel? Located right in the heart of Hyères, the Lilou is a true local institution. This elegant Haussmann-style building, with its Provençal color scheme, was already welcoming European aristocracy back in the 1920s. Today, this former luxury hotel on the French Riviera retains its vintage charm, with a subtle touch of modernity thanks to the renovation by interior designers Kim Haddou and Florent Dufourq. Right from the moment you step into the lobby, you’ll love the neo-retro style, featuring rattan sofas by Gabriella Crespi that pay homage to the Mediterranean’s golden age.
What are the rooms like? At the hotel in Hyères, just like in a family home, you can choose your room based on your preferred style: a winter garden vibe, a rustic and natural feel, Moorish-inspired arches, or classic moldings. Large mirrors and 1930s-style ceramic sinks make the Provençal light dance across the dominant cream and ecru tones. The bathrooms are tiled from floor to ceiling and feature geometric patterns. It’s a successful blend that’s both sophisticated and cozy.
Any extra perks? The Lilou Hotel offers a lovely, lush terrace where you can enjoy meals or relax by the swimming pool. Be sure to sip a cocktail at the remarkable bar made of poplar burl wood, or make a reservation at the restaurant—it’s well worth the visit. The chef elevates seafood and Mediterranean flavors with a masterful use of spices at this top spot in Hyères. Wine lovers will also be delighted: the Lilou features a tasting room and a cellar stocked with 350 different wines, recently awarded by the Revue des Vins de France.
Our favorite feature: the cozy, cocooning atmosphere here, even though it’s just a stone’s throw from the city’s liveliest streets. To ensure even more tranquility in the rooms, cork flooring has even been installed. Another great idea: management has removed the TV screens to encourage guests to disconnect, engage in conversation, and share moments with their loved ones.
Lilou Hotel
Starting at 99 euros for a standard room, 199 euros per night for a double room with a terrace.

2. Le Hameau des Pesquiers, Hyères’s quietest hotel
Just a few kilometers from downtown, Le Hameau des Pesquiers offers a completely different side of Hyères—a city of art and history, but also a seaside resort with its protected natural areas. The journey there is a guaranteed change of scenery: take the Route du Sel, which runs along the coast and past the former salt flats that have become migratory bird sanctuaries.
The hotel in Hyères? Set in a former workers’ hamlet where salt workers once lived, this 5-star ecolodge fosters a village atmosphere. Driftwood walkways connect the lodges to the beach and the various areas of the hamlet. Trails wind beneath century-old pine trees, and you get around on foot, taking your time. In this unspoiled setting, you’ll want to slow down, savor the beauty, and live in the moment—the “slow life” way. And it feels so good!
The rooms? Just like the setting: harmonious, bright, and open to the outdoors. Wood and natural materials take center stage, the colors are soft, and the king-size beds feature patented Hilton mattresses. Everything exudes luxury and serenity. Some rooms even feature a private jacuzzi on the terrace, so you can linger a little longer, glass in hand, watching the sunset.
The added bonus? On-site, the “Saliniers” restaurant offers a menu featuring Mediterranean flavors. We love that most of the vegetables come directly from the hamlet’s vegetable garden. And if you’d rather keep your feet in the sand, a food truck and beach service let you enjoy meals by the sea, lounging on a beach chair… What more could you ask for?
Our favorite: the ultra-chic fitness center with solid-wood equipment and a breathtaking view of the Salins from Les Pesquiers. And for total relaxation, head to the Nuxe Spa with a sauna, steam room, and custom massages. Everything at this Côte d’Azur hotel-spa has been designed to reconnect the body with nature—and with what truly matters.

3. Le Mas du Langoustier
For nature lovers, head to the island of Porquerolles and its hotel with its quintessentially Provençal charm: Le Mas du Langoustier. Here, the promise of total relaxation in an enchanting setting is truly fulfilled. The island is pedestrian-only, and the only engine noise you’ll hear is from the boats providing service to the port of La Tour Fondue. After the last departure, around 5 p.m., the island belongs solely to the lucky few who spend the night there.
The hotel? Open since 1934, Le Mas du Langoustier is located in the stunning bay of the same name, so called because it was once a popular spot for lobster fishermen. The hotel is nestled within a 50-hectare estate of pine and eucalyptus trees, at the westernmost tip of the island. Just a short walk from the hotel in Hyères, exclusive access to the Plage Noire cove lets you enjoy crystal-clear waters. Time seems to slow down, and you feel as if you’re at the end of the world…
The rooms? All rooms are air-conditioned, comfortable, and furnished with antique pieces that add to the charm of the place. Some offer a view of the pine forest, others of the flower-filled patio, and a few of the sea. All invite you to relax and connect with the surrounding nature.
The extra perk? We love enjoying the large heated pool or drifting off for a nap in the hammocks strung between the pine trees. You can also choose to be pampered with a massage or treatment at the wellness center while listening to the sound of lapping waves. Finally, to completely unwind and leave all your worries behind, you can enjoy the half-board option at the restaurant. The house specialty? A grilled lobster or whole fish to share with family or friends.
Our favorite feature: Le Mas du Langoustier is deeply committed to preserving its stunning natural surroundings. This eco-friendly hotel is self-sufficient in water and features its own vegetable garden, orchard, olive groves, and herb garden. And if you’d like to discover the treasures of Porquerolles’ aquatic flora and fauna, a partner of the hotel can take you snorkeling in the nearby coves. Awe is guaranteed.

4. Le Lodge des Îles d’Or
Closer to the center of Hyères, on the Giens Peninsula, Le Lodge des Îles d’Or is a little corner of paradise enveloped by the scent of pine trees, the sea breeze, and the song of cicadas.
This Hyères hotel? It offers simple, unpretentious luxury, nestled in the heart of a Mediterranean garden. The 22 rooms are spread across charming wooden pavilions arranged around a large heated pool. The architecture is designed in the style of a hacienda, blending seamlessly into its surroundings. After a busy day, relaxing by the heated pool is a true delight. And when evening falls and the lights come on, you’ll want to savor the moment with an aperitif under the pine trees.
What are the rooms like? The rooms are bright, with understated decor; the walk-in bathrooms, open to the bedroom, enhance this sense of freedom. And the private terraces, tucked away among the greenery, are ideal for reading, daydreaming, or savoring a moment of calm in the shade of the holm oaks.
The added bonus? There’s a restaurant and a bar on site. Le Lodge des Îles d’Or also offers a variety of activities to liven up and give rhythm to your stay, from kitesurfing and horseback riding to tours of the salt flats or vineyards… There’s something for everyone!
Our favorite spot: from the hotel in Hyères, take a charming path to reach the magnificent 4-kilometer-long Bergerie Beach. With its fine sand, shallow water, and a location that shields it from the mistral, this beach is particularly pleasant and popular with families with children.

5. Casino Hôtel des Palmiers
With its Belle Époque façade, slate roof, and Rococo ornamentation, the Casino Hôtel des Palmiers is a true tribute to the Riviera of yesteryear. This iconic building in the center of Hyères has been designated a Historic Monument. But behind this old-world elegance lies a 4-star hotel on the French Riviera that is perfectly in tune with the times.
The hotel? Recently renovated, the interior is calm, refined, and cozy. Deep blue and gold dominate the color scheme; thick carpets muffle the sounds of the city; and the lines are clean and simple. You drop off your bags and instantly feel right at home.
The rooms? Each room features a private terrace with a breathtaking view of either the Îles d’Or or the old town. The Italian marble bathrooms add a touch of understated luxury. Some even feature a bathtub, perfect for a relaxing soak after a day exploring the coast. Everything here is designed for comfort.
Bonus perks: Don’t miss the restaurant “Le Vic For Victoria” for its Mediterranean cuisine and stylish decor. We’re also charmed by its unique location, right in the heart of the slot machine hall at the Hyères Casino! Please note: for this reason, access is restricted to guests 18 and older. We also appreciate the expert hands of Marjorie, who offers foot reflexology sessions and lymphatic drainage treatments.
Our favorite feature: the two junior suites feature a rooftop terrace with a magnificent view of the palm trees and the blue Mediterranean in the distance. Like the Lilou Hotel, this centrally located property makes it easy to explore the city and its treasures.
