Where to stay in Vers-Pont-du-Gard: the 4 areas to know in 2026
The Pont du Gard is indeed located in the municipality of Vers, which carries its name, with the entrance on Route du Pont du Gard in Vers-Pont-du-Gard. However, the village itself only has one hotel and one campsite within its borders.
The aqueduct is approached from two banks, and most lodging is concentrated on the other side in Remoulins. Your budget depends less on the room and more on your car, as walking and cycling are free, while parking costs $11* per day. Staying within 2 kilometres makes a real difference for every day of your trip.

Vers-Pont-du-Gard The village and the monument's riverbank
to reach the bridge via the trails, without getting back in the car
The Pont du Gard sits right in this commune, 1.6 kilometres from the village's only two places to stay. A review on Avygeo describes what this makes possible: hikes that approach the monument from above, lookout spots over the arches, and a quiet swimming spot right in the middle of peak season. The village itself has barely 1,700 residents. It has no train station, no main shopping street, and virtually no hotel selection.
Vers-Pont-du-Gard is obviously known for its access to the famous Pont du Gard, but it is also a beautiful area for hiking and getting magnificent views of the Pont du Gard. [...] In high season, it is the ideal way to avoid the crowds and find a quiet spot for swimming. I recommend staying there a bit into the evening when the site clears out.
What to see & do in the area
Where to stay in this area
La Bégude Saint-Pierre Mid-range
The only hotel in the commune, located on chemin des Bégudes inside a stone building surrounded by gardens. It sits 1.6 kilometres from the monument, putting the aqueduct within walking distance.
Domaine des Gorges du Gardon Budget
A 4-star campsite on chemin de la Barque Vieille, right along the Gardon river. Nothing costs less anywhere in the Pont du Gard's own municipality.
Pros
- The monument is within the commune, and reachable via the hiking trails
- The trails offer viewpoints that the paid site does not have
Cons
- The village only offers one hotel and one campsite
- No train station and no shopping street here
Remoulins, the other bank On the left bank of the Gardon, between the arches and exit 23
to stay closest to the arches and have the most options
Remoulins is another town on the left bank of the Gardon, and it is where people stay. You will find more addresses here than in Vers, and they sit closer to the arches: the riverside campsite is 900 metres from the monument. The town also brings shops and restaurants that the neighbouring village lacks. Exit 23 of the motorway is just a few minutes away, which you can hear from certain rooms.

Soko Hotels Pont du Gard Mid-range
A 20-room hotel on avenue du Pont du Gard, recently updated, featuring a pool, garden, and restaurant. It puts the monument a 10-minute walk away.
Hôtel Les Glycines Budget
A 2-star hotel on avenue Geoffroy Perret right in town, complete with its own restaurant. The most modest rating in the area, in the village itself.
Camping La Sousta Budget
A 4-star campsite on avenue du Pont du Gard, shaded by trees right on the banks of the Gardon. At 900 metres from the monument, no other lodging sits closer.
Pros
- The riverside campsite sits 900 metres from the arches
- Shops and restaurants that the neighbouring village lacks
Cons
- The motorway exit can be heard from some of the rooms
- No property here exceeds a 2-star rating
Castillon-du-Gard A hilltop village perched 3 kilometres from the monument
for staying in stone walls, in a quiet setting above the valley
Castillon-du-Gard is yet another municipality, a stone village perched on a hill 3 kilometres from the monument. The narrow streets are quiet, and the views stretch across the Gardon valley and surrounding vineyards. One of the two 5-star hotels in the area is located here. On the flip side, the village offers almost no other lodging options and nothing at all for a tight budget.
Where to stay in this area
Le Vieux Castillon Luxury
A 5-star hotel occupying the village's historic houses, complete with a pool, spa, and restaurant. You will not find a higher-rated property in the immediate vicinity of the Pont du Gard.
Pros
- A hilltop stone village away from the traffic
- Views stretch across the Gardon valley and vineyards
Cons
- This village offers just a single hotel option
- Nothing here caters to smaller budgets
Uzès, the town 9 kilometres away The first duchy of France, sitting to the northwest
for having a real town around you with choices across every price range
Uzès sits 9 kilometres from the village and 12 from the monument, serving as the only true town in the area. Its arcaded place aux Herbes hosts a Saturday market, the alleyways are lined with shops and restaurants, and you can find everything from 2-star to 5-star hotels. It suits anyone who wants to see the monument without dedicating their entire stay to it. The downside is the distance, as every trip to the landmark requires driving back and forth.

La Maison d'Uzès Luxury
A 5-star hotel housed in a historic mansion in the old town, complete with a spa and fine dining. A gorgeous property right near the Place aux Herbes.
L'Auberge d'Uzès Budget
A 2-star hotel sitting right on the Alzon riverbank just below the centre. A straightforward spot in the only town in the area with shops open year-round.
Pros
- A Saturday market, alongside shops and restaurants open year-round
- A mix of 2-star and 5-star properties
Cons
- Every visit to the monument requires a quick drive back and forth
- The Pont du Gard is 12 kilometres away
Our tips for booking the right place
- Parking, a real expense: The rule is clear: access is open to all and free for pedestrians and cyclists. What you pay for is parking, at $11* per car and per day, along with the museum and guided tours. A three-night stay with a parked car every day therefore adds up to a non-negligible cost. Staying less than 2 kilometres away and walking or cycling completely eliminates it.
- The hours that change the visit: The site and its car parks are open from 8 am to midnight all year long. Two reviews posted on Avygeo draw the same conclusion from these hours: arrive early in the morning to dodge the crowds, or stay late in the evening when the site empties out. A third points out that the aqueduct is illuminated on summer nights. Staying just a few minutes away makes these two time slots genuinely accessible.
- The two banks and how to reach them: You can approach the aqueduct from the right bank on the Vers-Pont-du-Gard side, or from the left bank near Remoulins, with distinct road signs and a car park on each side. Choosing where to stay therefore means choosing your arrival bank. A review posted on Avygeo notes that you can also arrive by water in a canoe on the Gardon, an approach the road does not offer.
- Booking in the village while expecting a wide selection. Vers-Pont-du-Gard has barely 1,700 residents and offers only one hotel and one campsite. If both are fully booked, you will need to look in another town.
- Getting a room in Uzès thinking you are staying close to the monument. The town is 12 kilometres from the Pont du Gard, and every visit adds a round trip by car. It is an excellent base for exploring the region, but a poor choice if you want to visit the site multiple times.
- Confusing Vers-Pont-du-Gard with its neighbours. Remoulins, Castillon-du-Gard, Collias, and Uzès are four distinct towns, and each has its own hotels and local tourist tax. Check the exact municipality before you confirm your booking.
