Set in a 15th-century relais de poste (coaching inn), Le Sauvage offers 21 simple but comfy rooms spread around a cobbled, vine-shaded courtyard. Rooms 10, 12, 14 and 17, with exposed beams, are the cosiest. It's just steps from lively place Émile Zola, yet the rooms are pleasingly quiet. Parking €5.
