Privilège Hôtel Mermoz

Ideal location, just 5-10 mins walk from the majority of town. Hotel is set back from the road and is very pleasant. All very clean and tidy and there is a pool and gym available. Staff were very helpful and Miles especially couldn't do enough and was happy to engage with us and make suggestions about town.

Swimming pool - the photo is very good, the pool is fine for a dip to cool down in the afternoon, but is pretty small. Cut off time at the bar is 1pm, but was done rather abruptly by the night porter. Very minor negatives compared to the overall experience

Location was great - quick walk in to Toulouse and a quick walk to the Metro and main train station, tucked away and very quiet, the pool was a bonus especially as it was very hot the days we were there. The receptionists were great and as our French wasn't up to much their English was excellent.

I was a bit surprised with 2 teabags, 2 coffee pods and one sachet of milk for 2 people for 3 nights - anything after that you had to pay for so bring your own teabags and Nespresso pods if you like a tea or coffee in the room. Also one bottle of still water and one sparkling for 3 nights. Breakfast was 16.50 euro each per day which was a bit pricey, so we had breakfast in a local café for 6 euro for 2 of us which was lovely, we were not made aware of the city tax either until checkout which was a bit confusing at 6am.
