This is the 3rd time I've stayed at the L'Outsal del Barry... But the first time in the hands of these owners.
Much work has been done to this wonderful establishment, and all of it sympathetic and for the good. (Not that its wasn't good before... Having stayed twice back in the 1980's & 1990's, Najac and this hotel have always had a warm pace in my heart).
The evening meal came with wine chosen for each course... just amazingly good!
The breakfast was equally pleasant in a quiet breakfast room with panoramic views across the gorge.
My room this time was on the 2nd floor overlooking the gorge. A good size, clean, with a comfortable bed and excellent en-suite.
There is a lift.
The staff are lovely. Friendly and helpful.
I'll be returning!

3rd visit did not disappoint!

The dinner we had there was the best we had since we arrived in France in term of presentation, quality and originality.
Attention to détail was outstanding, refined atmosphere, this restaurant is not to be missed.

Amazing quality

To stay in a village stretched out along a precipice is an invigorating experience and added to that is the draw of Remy Simon’s exquisite cooking.  My husband and I have returned 5 times to this lovely, comfortable hotel in a unique setting…We love to take the room with a small terrace and view of the Fortress…magical! Susannah and Rémy Simon do all they can to make you feel like one of the family, tend to any needs & are most helpful in suggesting the many sites to visit. Parking is on the premises, breakfasts are copious and delicious.  Owners fluent in French and English

The walk to the fortress is breathtaking each time!  Drives along the valley offer exquisite views of Najac. Although you are in a tranquil setting, access to the main roads for touring is easy:  Villefranche-de-Rouergue Gorges de l’Aveyron, St-Antonin-Noble-Val, Bruniquel, Penne, Puycelsi, Castelnau de Montmiral, Monestiès, Cordes-sur-Ciel,  Albi, Montauban, a bit farther Castelnau-Montratier and Monpezat de Quercy
Good value. Cannot wait to return.

Excellent cuisine in lovely hotel with panoramic view

We arrived in Najac, exhausted after a long hike on the GR towards Toulouse.  Our host welcomed us warmly, and although the restaurant was closed that evening, he offered to make us dinner - we only asked for soup; he brought us not only a fabulous soup but a lovely dessert as well. After a good sleep in our comfortable, quiet room, overlooking the valley, we found a copious breakfast in front of the fire.  What a lovely way to recover from our day's hike! We shall return again, at a time when the restaurant is open!

Lovely hilltop Inn was a balm for tired hikers...

We stayed with our small dog and the whole experience was wonderful 
The position of the hotel at the top end of the village was perfect with plenty of free parking
The best food we have had  in a restaurant that had no Michelin star
The menu for €60 that included 5 courses and a glass of wine with each course was sublime 
Well worth the money as real courses not tasters
The staff were so attentive and our dog was made very welcome
We would have loved to have stayed longer still an excuse to return to a great hotel and wonderful area of France

Fantastic in all respects

We will definitely be coming back to L'Oustal del Barry in Najac. With its hilltop castle and views of the river below, Najac is a stunning location. L'Oustal del Barry has a range of rooms and our room had a sitting area with views over the countryside and Averyon valley. Decor was fresh and modern but complimenting the old building.

The food was excellent; one of the best meals that we ever had was the tasting menu with wine, the other best meal was the night before also at the L'Oustal del Barry!

The staff were great, both friendly and helpful. Corinne, the owner, could not do enough for us - complimentary canapes before dinner and leaving out coffee and biscuits for us as we had a very early departure on the last morning.

Very nice family run hotel with great food!

This is the same review as I wrote for the restaurant. We had a very friendly reception from a lady who spoke fluent French and English, and since we were searching for a place with rooms having moved out of a very mediocre Mediaeval town nearby, she was able to accommodate us (pardon the pun) at very short notice.  We were on a short break for our wedding anniversary. The room she gave us had air conditioning and a superb view from 2 large windows over the valley into the mountain.  The restaurant was very good offering a reasonable selection of courses and a huge wine list from local wines to the higher priced wines from elsewhere. The staff were friendly, polite and very helpful even translating the menus and wines for non-French speakers at the table next to us.

The village location of Najac was lovely with a really nice mediaeval fortress at the other end of town, the hills between the 2 were steep so difficult for wheel chairs but not impossible. The night we were there, there was a huge market and 'Marché gourmand' where you all eat in common with live music. Apparently this is every Wednesday night in  the summer.  We chose the hotel restaurant for a romantic meal :-)

Overall this hotel and its village helped to improved a couple of days away which were going downhill. Thank you Chef and Staff. (Diolch).

It improved our 2 days away.

We stayed at the Logis L'Oustal del Barry from the 27th July for 5 nights. Staff were very good, room 14 was basic and a bit tired looking but the price was fair. Yes I could find faults but scenery and hotel service outweighs a few niggles. The restaurant was always busy but I am not a fan of French cuisine, therefore no comment. Breakfast was very good with enough to eat, most enjoyable, more so when I added a Yorkshire tea bag to the teapot.
