Some suggestions in the French Pyrenees (from a French rider) if you want to go on your own:
- http://www.relais-des-pyrenees.com/: this hotel is well located, near the best Pyrenees roads and passes (excellent location if you like high mountains roads: it is at the bottom of Tourmalet (the most famous Pyrennes pass, over 2.000 meters high)); it has specific facilities for riders (under the supervision of ex-pro French rider, Laurent Fignon): you'll get massage, trainer, training buddies, etc....There is traffic especially in the Summer.
- Argelès-Gazost: this little town in very well located as well in the Pyrenees: it has plenty of relatively cheap hotels: the surroundings are just gorgeous for hiking and biking: you have some of the best Pyrenees passes and scenery around (excellent location as well if you like tough mountain roads). There is also traffic especially in the Summer.
- if you like deserted roads, I suggest you go on the East side of the Pyrenees (south of Carcassonne for instance) or in the Ariège region. I do not have any hotel recommendations but I am sure you can find very nice hotels in the region at moderate prices with excellent food and wine. I do not think you need "bike hotels" to enjoy your vacation there. Any nice hotel will do the job!
Enjoy!!
