Villa Navarre can host seminars, business meetings, lunches and dinners, cocktails, weddings and family celebrations such as christenings. It offers four modular meeting rooms, bedrooms and suites, a gastronomic restaurant and free private parking. The five-star hotel occupies a 19th-century villa at 59 avenue Trespoey in Pau, with landscaped gardens and a view of the Pyrenees.
Seminars and company events
The four meeting rooms are described as modular, so they can be set for a plenary session, workshops or a working lunch. Every room comes with a flipchart, a video projector and writing sets, and free wifi covers the whole building. The hotel does not publish room names or capacities on its site, so ask the sales team which layout fits your group.
Two practical points help a company event. The hotel can arrange a transfer from the railway station or the airport, and private parking is free for guests. The hotel is open all year, including public holidays, which allows a meeting to be set on a date many venues close. Sports stays are also among the formats the hotel lists.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel names weddings, christenings, cocktails and private lunches and dinners among the events it hosts, and describes its reception rooms as suited to weddings and conferences. The gardens with their flower beds and the restaurant terrace on the French garden give an outdoor setting for a drinks reception in fine weather. Wedding capacities are not published, so the sales team sets the format.
Accommodation
Rooms and suites are on site. Classic rooms measure about 25 m², a larger category about 30 m², some with a mountain view, and the suites average about 55 m², all facing the mountains. Each room has a private bathroom with shower or bath, a king-size bed or twin beds on request, wifi and a television. Pets are allowed. The total number of rooms is not stated on the site.
The wellness area includes a heated indoor pool, a hot tub, a sauna, a hammam and a treatment room, open daily from 9 am to 10 pm. The spa offers massages and facial treatments by appointment, and the fitness room has a treadmill, an elliptical trainer and a rowing machine.
Catering
The restaurant is run in two formats, Tuesday to Saturday: Bistrot Ruffet for lunch and Maison Ruffet for dinner. The rooms page names the chef as Romain Lorenzon and describes the gastronomic table as starred. The dining room faces south toward the mountains, and meals can be taken on the terrace above the French gardens. The bar occupies the former chapel of the villa and opens every day from 8:30 am to 9 pm.
History and setting
