Les Bories & Spa in Gordes.
Built in the 1970s as a collection of traditional Provençal stone houses, Les Bories & Spa was meticulously restored and transformed into a luxury boutique hotel that honors its rural origins.
Located on Route de Sénanque in Gordes, the property maintains the architectural character of authentic bories—the iconic dry-stone shepherds' dwellings native to this region—while offering five-star amenities including a spa, gourmet dining, and 20 individually designed suites.
This rare convergence of historical preservation and contemporary hospitality creates a distinctive venue for celebrations rooted in Provence's authentic landscape.
We visited in September for 4 nights and unfortunately our overall experience was poor. Our “Deluxe Or des Sauges” room was infested with millipedes (see photo/video) - each day, we had to get rid of 5-10 of them. They were everywhere: by the bed, in the bathtub, high up on the walls etc. - sleeping while knowing they are crawling around you was not a 5-star experience for us. Reception sent workers to check but it did not fix the issue. Setting the worms aside, this is not a 5 star hotel - rooms and facilities are dated, service is cold, breakfast and room service are far below standard. The only plus side was the location.
