Bed and breakfast

Guest rooms are furnished rooms in private homes intended to accommodate tourists, for a fee, for one or more nights, and which include certain services (Tourism Code – Article D324-3)

If you wish to let out one or more guest rooms, you are required to register with the local council of the municipality where the property is located (Tourism Code – Article L.324-4). You must complete the Cerfa form no. 13566*02 directly online.

Unlike other types of accommodation, there is no official classification system for guesthouses, but there are certification schemes run by private networks; There is also a listing by the tourist office, which guarantees that the establishment has been inspected and offers high-quality services.

Contact the Tourist Office’s classification department for advice and support.

Brands, charters and quality labels have also been developed to recognise providers who meet quality standards and to indicate the quality of a service to consumers. The main existing labels are:
