Hotels in Pertuis (Gate of the Luberon)

Nestled at the southern entrance to the magnificent Luberon Regional Natural Park, Pertuis, often referred to as the 'Gate of the Luberon,' serves as an enchanting introduction to the timeless beauty of Provence. While the official commune of Pertuis is a larger town, within the context of Lourmarin, 'Pertuis' evokes the picturesque gateway leading into this quintessential Provençal village. Discerning travelers will revel in the tranquil ambiance, where ancient stone buildings, winding cobblestone streets like Rue du Grand Pré, and sun-drenched squares invite leisurely exploration. The area around Lourmarin's iconic Château, though technically within the village, embodies the spirit of this gateway, offering a glimpse into centuries of history against a backdrop of rolling vineyards and olive groves. This idyllic corner of Provence is a haven for those seeking an authentic French experience, far from the bustling crowds. Guests can wander through the vibrant weekly market, discover local artisans, or simply savor a coffee on a sun-dappled terrace near the Fontaine des Trois Becs. The village's rich cultural heritage is evident in landmarks such as the historic Temple de Lourmarin, while the surrounding landscape provides endless opportunities for hiking and cycling. For the Nova Collection guest, Pertuis offers a sophisticated blend of rustic charm and refined elegance, making it an ideal base for exploring the wider Luberon region while enjoying the intimate luxuries of a boutique hotel stay.
