Hotel in Embrun near the Lac de Serre Ponçon

A wonderful story that started in 1975

The story started in the 1970s when the Lejeune family from Paris fell in love with the place by the edge of the lac de Serre Ponçon and built a hotel there. For the family, being in the Hautes-Alpes already felt like you were in Provence, which is where the name Les Bartavelles came from, recalling the royal partridges Pagnol loved so much. Eliane and Jacques Jaume bought the hotel in 1985, and have been developing the company ever since. Since then, the hotel has continually developed thanks to all that Nancy Jaume and her husband Christophe Pernin put into it. The Perle d'Eau Spa opened its doors in 2008 and was renovated in 2020 in a muted and private atmosphere; an outdoor heated pool, its restaurant La Table de Paul where fresh and local products are showcased; as well as 43 cosy rooms.
