Le Relais de Moussidière

Bedroom area and terrace were good, newly decorated and comfortable. Swimming pool area was good.

No restaurant, No tea / coffee facilities or free water in room but 6 euros for water in the mini bar No help trying to acquire a taxi and no shuttle bus facilities to / from Sarlat, poor when there is no restaurant. 1970 hairdryer in bathroom which got too hot and burnt our hand. No sink in separate toilet room, which is very small. Small shower area for a 4 star hotel. Air conditioning didn't get cold, was just a fan. Reported various issues but staff seemed disinterested.

Good location for Sarlat and sightseeing - definitely need a car (no taxis!). The hotel is quite charming, nice and quiet, pretty setting, clean and functional, but lacks atmosphere. The staff are very helpful in recommending and booking local restaurants.

The breakfast was very disappointing - 15 Euros per person for what is essentially some cereal and toast/croissants. The juice isn't fresh and there is no cooked breakfast option (just a cold hard-boiled egg). We paid 60Euros for our family of 4 and the kids only had a bowl of cereal! But they get away with it because otherwise you have to get in your car and go find somewhere else (which we ended up doing). No coffee or tea making facilities in the room either. There really is no bar/snacks or food available and this contributes to the lack of atmosphere, although it certainly has the set-up and space for it. And as it's a drive into town to get any food, it's very inconvenient. The pool towels are the size of hand towels, ridiculous! There was no proper hair dryer, just one attached to the wall in the bathroom which does absolutely nothing for someone with long hair. There are also no decent toiletries, a bar of hand soap and an all-in-one shampoo/body wash. It's not a bad hotel, just don't see how it can be 4 stars with the lack of services and provisions.
