Don’t bother.

30 minute check in due to confusion over payment with receptionist and no apology! 360 room hotel and no one speaks English in the building! Finally get my room - characterless empty chamber with no view! finally spent 45 minutes trying to connect wi fi which failed so gave up. Breakfast was cold as well. Hotel is full of elderly Spanish who appear to be on a govt subsidised break. No bar no entertainment just a vast hotel with no character. I could go on but overall a very disappointing stay.

A stopover to see Tolouse Lautrec`s town.

Nice place,easy to find,good room,friendly staff....and free parking!
Busy area with heavy traffic,across river from old City,maybe 15/20mins walk.
Did not pay attention to area walking to old City....came back thru empty streets to hotel.
Nothing there...nothing...all little shops...no bars,bistros,restaurants...nothing.
went back to old City for dinner,walked back thru dark empty streets to hotel.
Saw 1 back street restaurant open!
Went to bed left early.
Nice place for sleeping,with free parking.....otherwise....better to be closer to the sights.

Comfy, free parking & good value

Hotel located near the city center with free parking. The room was quite big and clean. Our room (standard) had a queen bed and an en suite bathroom with a bath. Although everything was comfy, we had a little problem with the plumbing, since the water was hot enough but with lack of potency. Free wifi worked perfectly.

Stayed one night as a stopover, hotel relatively easy to find, reasonable central to main attractions such as cathedral and restaurants (approx. 10 min walk with lovely views of river and cathedral). Parking space limited but managed to squeeze onto driveway. All staff very pleasant and helpful. Room clean and neat, bathroom compact especially the shower! Very good breakfast, easy links to main routes out of town.

No air conditioning in the middle of a heat wave

Took this hotel on the recommendations of Expedia reviews but it was very disappointing. It was hard to talk to the staff as no one stayed at the front desk and the rooms were very small and not air conditioned. It did not deserve such a high rating. The breakfast was relatively expensive with no special touches. Would not recommend for a summer trip to France.

An adequate, clean and generally friendly hotel.

The standard room is quite adequate in size. The bathroom is large, but the tub is an
unsafe four footer that is extremely deep and slippery. Be careful !! Overall the room was comfortable although a little worn. This is the fault of customers who are a bit hard on hotel furniture. The breakfast is typical, quite alright, but expensive at 9.5 euros.
Remember, this is France and breakfasts are never included and usually overpriced.
The staff is quite friendly and very helpful. If we were to return to Albi we would likely
stay there again.

Perfectly placed for seeing the sights of the city

The hotel staff are very welcoming and helpful. They understand english if you speak slowly. The rooms are clean and comfortable and if you are lucky to get a room on the front you will have a great view. Breakfast is continental with plenty of choice very good value for money. Overall I would recommend this hotel for 1 to two nights stay to see the sights of Albi. Plus they have free car parking.

Not 3 star

Shower/WC very cramped behind sliding/folding plastic door. Secure car park holds so few cars that we had to park in non-secure (but free) public car park. All of the claims slightly overstated - secure car park, but too small. 500m from Toulouse-Lautrec (my satnav said 800m as crow flies, 950m on foot). No restaurant in hotel which recommended one 20m away - we didn't use it as we didn't find it until after our evening meal on last night of our stay - down a side street rather than on street quoted in address and closer to 100m away.
For the money we paid, would suggest Campanile would be a better option - standard Campanile room would be slightly larger and shower/WC definitely larger

Albi is worth a visit

Great location. All the sights you'll want to see are within walking distance of the hotel.
Very clean hotel with ample off street parking.
Very helpful and pleasant staff.
The main problem was we were there when it was incredibly hot and the ceiling fan was noisy enough to keep even me awake! So we had 2 uncomfortable nights trying to stay cool. When it's not so hot it would be a perfectly satisfactory hotel to stay in.
