Albi hotellia

Plussat: We loved Nicholas. He was truly the highlight of our trip. Thank you so much Nicholas.

Plussat: Rooms are very clean and nice. Location is great. It is rather quiet during the night. Rooms are spacious.

Miinukset: All was very good.

Plussat: Central and quiet location, beautiful room tastefully furnished, great modern and spotlessly clean bathroom, obliging staff.

Miinukset: The breakfast was poor for a beautiful 4 star hotel.

Plussat: Loved room sizes, bathroom, decor & location

Plussat: Everything was perfect

Plussat: This was our second visit to The Alchemy and once again we were not disappointed. The location in the centre of the old town is excellent and the outside terrace for drinks and dining is a real bonus. The food was as before excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful. We will definitely return.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike

Plussat: Perfect night, we booked the last standard room so we got an upgrade to a suite with large marble bathroom.

Plussat: The ambiance, the perfect location, the excellent staff, the attention to detail in the bedroom, and the continental breakfast was good, altogether a most enjoyable weekend.

Miinukset: Nothing, although it did lack a view.

Plussat: The all round friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and the quality of both the room and food

Miinukset: We liked everything

Plussat: Marvellous situation and the most comfortable rooms ever. Beautiful bathrooms too. The best thing about the place was the staff, Nicolas , the owner was really charming and so helpful. The food was also the best we had in Albi. Will be going again!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great family run hotel where the owner made homemade Madelines for our breakfast! Breakfast was good and included ham and cheese. We enjoyed sitting in the garden and having a glass of wine! Free parking real close!

Miinukset: Three floors up. This place has no elevator. If you have bad knees and cant do the steps, be sure to request a lower level room

Plussat: We liked the personal and attentive service that we received from the owners ! They make you feel like part of their family! The breakfast was really good ! Very nice stay !

Plussat: Very helpful and polite, the decoration and faculities are very tasteful and the breakfast superb!

Plussat: Hospitable & caring hosts

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Quirky hotel within a 10 minute walk of the main site seeing areas of Albi. Comfortable room, helpful and friendly staff, delicious breakfasts with home baking and jams.

Miinukset: Nothing. I would recommend you ask for a room on a lower floor if you have issues with stairs as there is no lift. Staff help with luggage.

Plussat: Aamiainen oli loistava ! Samoin isännän ystävällisyys todella mieltä lämmittävää.

Plussat: Owners personality

Miinukset: everything

Plussat: Fantastic quirky hotel. The staff were very accommodating and the breakfast was superb. We would definitely stay again

Plussat: Everything - our room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The couple running the hotel we’re lovely and welcoming, and breakfast was delicious. Would recommend!

Plussat: Beautiful hotel, with a wonderful pool. Friendly, helpful staff, just as expected from Relais Chateau.

Plussat: Stunning setting, relaxed atmosphere and really friendly staff.

Miinukset: Breakfast poor especially for cost.

Plussat: Very relaxed atmosphere excellent food and Wine choice, the sommelier was extremely helpful and wine advise perfect, the Room was most comfortable in every way

Miinukset: My only slight criticism was that a young lady member of the staff wasn’t very friendly and seemed quite abrupt, maybe she isn’t happy in this position.

Plussat: Attention to detail

Miinukset: Difficult to get to town without a car. Easy to park in town though.

Miinukset: They do not really have a restaurant. If you book ahead you can get lunch on some days. Otherwise there is some bar food. On many days the same is required for dinner. This is different from what their literature and website says. It is a REALLY nice hotel, but do not expect to eat there unless you plan really far ahead. Since they are somewhat outside the city in a lovely location, there aren't any 'nextdoor' restaurants.

Plussat: We were late coming back for dinner and they stayed open to serve us dinner.

Plussat: Breakfast was good value .

Miinukset: To many insects. But to be expected as near a river.

Plussat: Loved everything about the hotel, especially the staff. They could not have done enough for us.

Miinukset: We liked everything about La Reserve and want to return

Plussat: Breakfast excellent- fresh baguette, homemade jams, juice, fresh fruit salad, coffee. Lovely couple - Jacques and Annick- they offered us transport into Albi and picked us up after our meal out ( which they had kindly recommended and booked for us) Tea and coffee making in our room. In fact our accommodation was the whole upstairs of their home- two bedrooms, bathroom, toilet, study/ dining area with fridge. Superb!

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff, clean, comfortable rooms and perfect location.

Plussat: Location. Size of room

Plussat: The staff were more than fantastic. They were very helpful and amicable in terms of accommodating our needs, particularly because we were travelling with a senior person that could barely walk.

Miinukset: It was difficult to regulate the water temperature in the shower.

Plussat: Best breakfast we have eaten in France, varied, copious and good quality. Location perfect, right in heart of old city. Also good brasserie below hotel where we ate in the evening.

Plussat: Very friendly and efficient staff. The location is excellent for easily visiting the old town. Breakfast was very good. The room was basic, but the bath was big and modern.

Miinukset: The hotel didn't mention to me that it has a private garage but instead directed me toward the public parking nearby (which, combined to the fact that it was exactly the night when Algeria won the football African Cup of Nations, gave me a lot of concerns).

Plussat: It was conveniently located. The concierge (male and female) were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good. Air con in the bedroom was good and we enjoyed our stay there for a reasonable price.

Miinukset: Maybe some decorating in the rooms.

Plussat: Good central position.

Miinukset: Better signage for hotel.

Plussat: Clean, modern, comfortable and friendly proprietor. Bang in the middle of the beautiful,city of Albi.

Miinukset: Only problem was finding the hotel. It's in the middle of some tiny winding streets in a warren of one way systems. Not their fault but dodo make sure you have good satnav to get you there!

Plussat: The location and the staff were wonderful. Very helpful to answer my questions and very attentive to my needs.

Miinukset: Nothing everything was very good.

Plussat: great price for my room but I think I was thankfully upgraded, excellent breakfast buffet/ location/ staff, excellent 3star hotel

Plussat: Location is excellent and secure on site parking a bonus. Rooms are comfortable with plenty of storage space. WiFi was excellent, quick to connect and very fast.

Miinukset: Nothing of significance, but a few minor maintenance issues should be attended to.

Plussat: Natalie is an absolute gem! She was helpful at every turn, friendly, and a marvelous hostess. The location is easily accessible to all anyplace you want to walk in the old city within 10 minutes or less, giving lots of options. The hotel is in the midst of upgrading and they are doing a good job. It is an easy place to stay and just what I expected. The breakfast was nothing special, but the staff were very helpful meeting dietary needs and it was all fresh.

Plussat: One of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed at! Could not recommend it enough.

Plussat: Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful.

Plussat: Lovely hotel in central location with obliging staff. Covered private parking which you pay for but book into hotel before trying to access it. Quiet rooms as overlook a central court yard. Would recommend to anyone visiting the beautiful Albi.

Plussat: Room and location

Miinukset: Breakfast

Plussat: location and breakfast

Miinukset: Toilet seat needs replacement. It moves around and it pinched my thigh (butt).

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Good parking

Plussat: Location, staff, food and bedding all excellent!

Miinukset: Access to the parking lot was tricky and confusing, partly because the map to parking lot provided at hotel desk was not to scale

Plussat: Location was great and rooms very comfortable.

Miinukset: No issues.

Plussat: The staff were superb, helpful and welcoming. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The bed was really comfortable. Location was excellent. The hotel was really quiet although about 5 mins walk to centre of Albi.

Miinukset: The only minor issue was the shower was over the bath and there was no screen or curtain, this made showering quite difficult. Everything else was great.

Plussat: The staff are lovely, great location, very comfortable bed and clean room. The gardens are very pretty too.

Miinukset: Nothing really to dislike. The decor in our room was overpowering but very comfortable and nice view of the gardens.

Plussat: We loved the attentive staff, the spacious room, the secure and convenient parking, the easy walk to the cathedral and art museum, the lovely breakfast room with too many delicious breakfast choices.

Plussat: Great location

Plussat: Very pleasant and helpful staff.

Plussat: Just the right location. Near everything but far away to be oh so quiet

Plussat: It was in a great location for us to just walk into the old town where we were able to eat breakfast and dinners. very nice property staff were extremely friendly and very very helpful. Wi-Fi was good and the parking for our car very easy

Miinukset: There was no refrigerator or kettle and tea and coffee in room

Plussat: Room was small but perfect for a simple nights stop, beds were very comfortable and room was quiet at night. Bedroom and bathroom were clean and tidy and the staff were very friendly. Breakfast was simple and effective.

Plussat: The location was perfect The hosts were very kind The premises were scrupulously clean

Plussat: Excellent location for an easy stopover

Miinukset: Room was quite small, but it was all we needed

Plussat: a nice hotel next to a shopping/exhibition area outside the city centre, good for an overnight stop

Miinukset: everything was fine though the room was very very small and had a small window

Plussat: Nice breakfast, very comfortable bed. The room was completely quiet at night. Free street parking.

Miinukset: There were some creaky floorboards, but nothing to worry about.

Plussat: Breakfast cleanliness and host

Miinukset: Parking was a bit of an issue

Plussat: Host tries his best to give a warm welcome

Miinukset: Smell of sigars & sigarettes in the entire house

Plussat: Spacious bedroom and luxury bathroom - host Dominique is engaging and very knowledgeable.

Miinukset: On-street parking is a bit of a lottery, but in fact we found spaces on every night no more than 50 meters from the house. Might be harder in high summer?

Plussat: the location was good

Miinukset: I put a filter asking for a place with parking, and there was no parking. The WC was inside the room.

Plussat: The host was excellent, we enjoyed our conversations with him especially as he was happy to practice his English. He was very helpful about things to see in Albi and the accomodation was only a short walk from the town centre. A really great and interesting place to stay.

Plussat: Warm & friendly welcome from Dominic which was appreciated - he is the B&B. He has great language skills, speaks good English and Spanish and has great stories to tell with funny jokes and fabulous knowledge of Albi Room was spacious & clean, bathroom excellent and very big, great shower. Air con great, lovely furniture, plenty of hanging space. Loved Toulouse Lautrec artwork in our room. Homemade crepes were lovely, nice orange juice. Host is great piano player with a fun personally. Pool a bonus as it was very hot, lovely garden and patio area. Good outside space & location close enough to walk to town centre, restaurants etc approx 15-20 mins. Albi is a beautiful area, lots of historical places to visit. The old town is very pretty, people friendly. Best value is the €34 day pass which gives you access to Toulouse Lautrec museum, the cathedral and audio tour of the city with a 3-course lunch with glass of Gailliac wine included, you can buy these online or go to Office de Tourisme. Recommend L'epril de Moulin restaurant for a fantastic meal, great service, excellent value for money in beautiful old part of the city.

Miinukset: Private terrace needs a parasol as just to hot to use otherwise which was a shame as we would have sat out there - one of the chairs was broken (leg gives way when sit on it) Mattress in Toulouse Lautrec room was very firm, so didn't sleep too well. Only one thin pillow each, pity as bed is beautiful and bedding crisp & clean. Breakfast was a bit disappointing, although we enjoyed the homemade crepes, fresh bread & juice, it lacked variety. Pastries not from local bakery but from supermarket and were mini size. Little or no cereal, on Friday I wanted cereal but only Coco pops left, advised by host needed to shop for more, so Saturday I expected a replenished cereal stock but was sadly disappointed as still only Coco pops available. Lack of choice of spread for bread and pancakes. Advertised as 'buffet' style but items missing for a buffet style breakfast such as cold milk for tea or cereals, tea & coffee is not buffet self service even though there is a coffee machine, you have to ask for coffee and tea - it's a little hap hazard - on first morning there were just 2 small crepes left so 1 each and it wasn't explained more could be made and we weren't offered more. This was only made clear on our second morning. No savoury options so all in all very sweet offering. If breakfast was improved e.g. display all the buffet items, better explanation given with more variety it would be perfect!. No glasses in room for water or wine but was given these when I asked.

Plussat: A great location and a friendly host. The rooms were really well decorated and made up. The air conditioning worked well, and breakfast was generous.

Plussat: What a warm beautiful house, the owner is very charming and welcomed us in the most wonderful way He has a fantastic knowledge of Albi and is happy to share his time with you to ensure you get the most out of your visit.

Miinukset: We liked everything

Plussat: The breakfast was good, if you like marmelade and honey.

Miinukset: I rather have ham, cheese or eggs for breakfast.

Plussat: The hall and the bar with the piano

Miinukset: The bathroom not so new and the old hairdryer. Sigarette smell in the room

Plussat: I liked the room. Spacious, great view, good bathroom and great location.

Miinukset: The pool is a bit small but the patio is pleasant.

Plussat: Clean, spacious room with ac army a good price

Miinukset: Thin walls meant you could hear everything.

Plussat: Pool was good, food was good.Staff were friendly.

Miinukset: Air con was very noisy and inefficient. Location appeared from the pictures to be nearer to the old town with views of the town, but it wasn’t.

Plussat: Breakfast was fantastic - plenty of choice and the staff constantly looking to keep it topped up and fresh/staff so accommodating/location great - was a super stay

Plussat: Receptionist was very helpful. Room was extremely quiet thanks to secondary double glazing.

Miinukset: The area the hotel is located is not particularly salubrious, seemed to be a lot of street people and generally one had to be aware of "mess" on the pavements.

Plussat: Location excellent for site seeing. Helpful staff and excellent accommodation. Great value for money! Restaurant for those who don't want the short walk back into town in the evening. Pool for those wishing to cool down. Secure parking at very reasonable price a welcome bonus. Would highly recommend.

Plussat: Nice enough place, good location.

Plussat: Very Good breakfast with lots of choices. Location quite near to Albi center.

Miinukset: Air conditioning is very poor and needs improving.

Plussat: 10 mins walk to city centre. Friendly and open reception and a good quality restaurant.

Miinukset: The shower was a hand held unit in the bath with all the power of a damp squib. The linen had some blood on it! The air con was very noisy. The parking outside the hotel was dangerous, having to reverse into fast flowing traffic to get out! Better to park over the way in the station.

Plussat: The cabin was clean and very quiet and close to a large shopping area

Miinukset: There was nothing to dislile6

Plussat: Although we were very much out of season the sauna heated outdoor pool and hot tub were available to use. The staff were really friendly and it was still possible to order fresh bread and pastries for breakfast to be delivered to the caravan even though the restaurant was shut

Miinukset: You need to be aware the site is a little way from the centre of town

Plussat: Good location in a park in the city of Albi, friendly and helpful staff, all necessary facilities

Miinukset: A little bit tight for 6 people.

Miinukset: With no air-conditioning and temperatures in the top 30's the bungalow was an oven, but if we opened the windows we got eaten alive by mosquitoes. We had to buy electrical mosquito repellents for our stay so that we could sleep. A fly screen and a fan would be welcome additions in the summer months.

Plussat: Rooms are clean and air conditioning!!!

Miinukset: Poor Breakfast for 10,90€!!!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Receptionist couldn't deal with checks in and answering the calls ( she was crying) a bit unprofessional.

Plussat: Welcoming and helpful staff, free private parking, silence. I was surprised like for such a low price.

Miinukset: Ridiculous heater in the bathroom that you can easly switch on accidentally and than it’s impossible to turn it off. Completely no table in the room. Too many equipment in such a tiny room.

Plussat: it's not the Ritz but it's intelligently arranged to give you comfort. within walking distance of old city center (Cathedral and Tolouse Lautrec Museum) it's relatively easy to reach by car and has good parking arrangements both on hotel parking and neighbours. staff was helpful and we had dinner at restaurant just near hotel, with modest appearance but great food and service. it allowed us to have a short and nice stay to visit the town cost effectively.

Miinukset: it didn't look like the Ritz, but again, room was in good order, clean, functional and comfortable.

Plussat: Very good

Plussat: Room was clean. Bed was comfortable.

Miinukset: Air conditioning didn't work very well. No elevator. Had to keep logging in to the WiFi. Not as nice as the other Campanile hotel we stayed at on our trip.

Plussat: The staff were extremely welcoming and professional. Breakfast was plentiful and varied.

Miinukset: The air conditioning was not working on our first night but after reporting it to Reception it was fixed by the engineers on the following day.

Plussat: Location, price, clean, comfortable

Plussat: Great host, very nice location. Pleasant stay. Would recommend.

Plussat: Hotel is in great location, the pool area is great an oasis of calm. The hotel itself is very tired and dated, rather drab and dark. Clean and tidy though. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: Dark hallway and carpets

Plussat: Lovely family run hotel, owners speaking very good English. They suggested activities going on in the town during our stay. Lovely pool and ping pong outside.

Miinukset: Nothing. Superb, friendly, welcoming. Will come again

Plussat: Great location. Swimming-pool and nice little garden. Extremely helpful staff : advice about the parking, the city & the places of interest + allowed us to leave our luggage in a closet for the day & to enjoy the swimming-pool a little longer....

Plussat: Staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and very clean. Bathroom was very good. Great breakfast. Overall, amazing value for money

Miinukset: No air conditioning meant it was pretty hot. But a fan was supplied which helped

Plussat: We very much liked the breakfast in the very pleasant breakfast room and the garden with a swimming pool

Plussat: Great location no road or traffic noise

Miinukset: No shower curtain. Hand held shower.

Plussat: Great host and great location

Miinukset: A bit outdated furniture. The hotel could use a brush up

Plussat: Just about everything at Hotel Laperouse from the moment I arrived on through to my sad departure . Quentin at the desk was of an excellent nature a really nice human being . Despite the fact the nature of this job involves full commitment from early morning to late closing on a consistent basis his good spirit and great patience shone through . Everything about this Beautiful Hotel and staff price wise and service wise was of a very high standard . The Breakfast room bright and inviting , the Swimming pool and adjacent recreation area - Table Tennis card / coffee table in shaded vibrant green foliage section an added bonus not to mention the free use of Sun loungers by the poolside in a semi tropical fauna setting - So so relaxing stay at this very fine establishment . Could only recommend this for a nice stay in the beautiful City / Town of Albi . . . Heavenly . Brendan from Ireland . Merci Beaucoup pour une belle petite vacation .

Miinukset: Nothing . . .

Plussat: It’s location and friendly, helpful staff.

Miinukset: Some decor was quite tired, access to garden through next door property and noisy on one night - we had room facing the square.

Plussat: staff is kind. he makes me comfortable. clean and close to station.

Plussat: The manager was completely charming and very helpful. Top marks in all ways. Our thanks to him :-)

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Breakfast was ok but needs more selection ie meat and cheeses

Plussat: very good location and well kept

Miinukset: the double room under the roof was a bit too tiny, even for smaller people. also i am not sure if the escape rout is sufficient in case of fire, since the windows ate blocked by iron guards.

Plussat: Great location, easy parking, lovely staff and great breakfast!

Plussat: Very well positioned for business at the university, and a pleasant 10-minute walk through the park and pedestrian route into the medieval episcopal city.

Miinukset: The mattress was too soft for me.

Plussat: The breakfast was great, nice assortment of meats, cheese, eggs, coffee. The location was good, walking distance to the old town.

Plussat: The room was clean but shower very small and no door on the en-suite just a curtain

Miinukset: Breakfast was basic and eggs cold

Plussat: Breakfast was lovely and it was walking distance from all the attractions.

Miinukset: The room felt quite dirty, there were stains everywhere and it just didn't fell clean.

Plussat: Excellent location - very quiet but only 10 minutes to main attractions and restaurants Plenty of free parking Excellent breakfast choice Very comfrotable bed Decent bathroom facilities Really helpful & friendly staff

Miinukset: Nothing really

Plussat: The price

Miinukset: The rest

Plussat: Good buffet breakfast, quiet location.

Miinukset: Blinds didn't work, some light bulbs missing, no light switch as you entered the room.

Plussat: Very central, nice short walk into the city. Own parking place.

Miinukset: Everything was fine.

Plussat: Nice clean budget room at a good price. Fridge included. No aircon but the overhead fan was good enough in Sep. Lovely walk over the bridge to the Cathedral, just 10 mins. Also a tabac just at the corner and a few restaurants on the road outside. Parking was easy.

Miinukset: Shower cubicle was small, but everything was adequate.

Plussat: Good location. Staff very helpful , especially taking in my bycycle for safe keeping. Room was comfortable.

Miinukset: No real orange juice at breakfast . I would have prefered a back of hotel room.

Plussat: Perfect one, super large and clean room with good price, very friendly reception.

Miinukset: Breakfast can be improved

Plussat: Simple if small room in a great location. More noisy than I expected!

Plussat: Situation

Miinukset: Just adequate continental Breakfast in gloomy uncomfortable outside area with hovering staff

Plussat: If you must stay here try to get a room in the annexe; they are slightly better. The "superior rooms" are not, really — only a bit bigger but equally tatty, and more expensive for no real higher standard.

Miinukset: If you must stay here try to get a room in the annexe; they are slightly better. The "superior rooms" are not, really — only a bit bigger but equally tatty, and more expensive for no real higher standard.

Plussat: Location was superb. Very friendly and helpful staff. Inexpensive. Excellent air-conditioning.

Miinukset: Room small, rather bland and quite tired, floor needed better sweeping.

Plussat: Excellent location -

Miinukset: No elevator - long and difficult staircase particularly when carrying suitcases - no lights in our hallway -

Plussat: Superb location Very helpful and friendly staff

Miinukset: Shower and toilet were not working very well (nothing major but needed some fixing) No airconditioning, only a fan

Plussat: Great location. Good size room, lovely high ceilings.

Miinukset: Bed was quite small.

Plussat: Fabulous location right at the centre of the medieval part of the town. Unfortunately I had to leave 1 day early to get back to Carcassonne due to a French train strike. The owner went out of his way to sort me some accommodation there. The lady on reception was extremely helpful too.

Miinukset: Bathroom in a bad state of repair, dirty, no clean towels provided in the 4 nights we were there. Room very dark, booked and paid for 6 nights, left after 4 as uncomfortable.

Plussat: Great location: in the old town, steps away from the cathedral.

Miinukset: Not a good place to stay when the weather is warm: there is no AC or even a simple fan in the room, and if you open the window, you are attacked by moscitoes. The lighting in the room is inadequate. Not enough outlets: we managed to find only one. Overall, the room seemed in need of a major upgrade. The staff seemed to understand but not speak English. We did not feel welcome.
