Millions of pilgrims continue to come every year, and the only French city with more hotels than Lourdes is Paris.
The biggest concentration of Lourdes' hotels huddles alongside the Gave River, with a sampling of quaint inns scattered throughout the streets of the medieval city. Visitors will also find bed and breakfasts and rustic lodges in the Pyrenees countryside.
Devotees believe the Virgin Mary appeared to a provincial girl 18 times during the 19th century in what is now the Grotto de Massabiele.
Today's visitors come hoping for miracle cures. Other prominent sites include the Chateau-Fort de Lourdes and the underground Basilica of St Pius X.
Being based in a hotel in Lourdes also allows for excursion into Mountain Stream Valleys region, known for its ski resorts and spas.
Warm weather outdoor activities like rock climbing and hiking are possible in Pyrenees National Park. Hotels in Lourdes are busiest during important religious observances, but pilgrims continue to come in every season.
The best way to secure the desired room at a competitive rate is to book well ahead of travel.
