Reviews for Au Grand Hôtel de Sarlat

Review 1:The room was musty, noisy and the shower drain was blocked for our stay. The "free parking" is a joke! The lady who checked us in said the free parking was on the street. Parking in the hotel garage was 13€. The wifi did not operate.

Review 2:We liked the Peruvian young lady who helped us with the downstairs printer. The hotel is convenient to a couple of restaurants.

Review 3:Whilst the bed was very comfortable we found the pillows to be lacking in support.

Review 4:we were visiting friends who live in Sarlat and therefore did not use many of the hotel facilities but enjoyed what we did use.

Review 5:Felt a bit pricey for the standard, albeit Sarlat is a bit of a honey trap so probably reflects that. Need to arrive early if you want to use the pool in August!

Review 6:Easy to find and parking in the street behind was easy. Reception staff seemed friendly. Straightforward and largely flat walk into the historic centre..

Review 7:Overall, everything was good. Just the breakfast didn't seem to be clean or fresh, somehow the fork was a bit un-washed, also the fruit was over-ripened.

Review 8:Nice crew. Quiet room. Good service. Great location.

Review 9:expensive for an outdated hotel , rooms need to be upgraded , breakfast is expensive for what is offered - it's much cheaper to walk to town for a local breakfast.

Review 10:very friendly staff, good swimming pool, great location on walking distance from Sarlat medieval centre

Review 11:Disappointed and unhappy with cleanliness of bathroom and toilet. Washbasin was dirty and badly cracked. Bath and shower needed a deep clean.

Review 12:Stayed several times before, excellent location, very helpful and friendly staff. Good car parking and vastly improved breakfast.

Review 13:We were only given one key to start with, room very small for price, bathroom cramped

Review 14:Beautiful town but very touristy nice local restaurant close by good air con

Review 15:Not a thing! It's a super hotel and wouldn't stay anywhere else in Sarlat!

Review 16:Very friendly staff. Super location. Spotlessly clean. Fantastic room with a balcony. Nice buffet breakfast. Excellent underground car parking.

Review 17:No restaurant. Bar & lounge service inconsistent. Breakfast poor. All looking a bit tired. Hasn't changed or improved since my last visit 2 years ago!

Review 18:Convenient location. Very pleasant staff.

Review 19:No restaurant, no restaurant no restaurant (yes I said it 3 times). As a solo traveller on business I was not happy with no restaurant. I needed to work, not go hunting for food. On a nice day, for tourists, great to walk into town where there is a wide choice. Solo travellers on business should avoid this hotel (in my humble opinion). I have never seen a 4* hotel not offer a restaurant. Wifi a little hit and miss and a bit slow, but fine for e-mail. The rooms are tiny tiny tiny. Not enough room between the end of the bed and the desk to fit a chair, so they had placed a stool. Very cramped indeed.

Review 20:location was good Rooms clean a reasonably modern Staff were professional if not particularly personable (functional but not into smiling much) A good hotel for tourists and the village is great

Review 21:The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Review 22:Easy walk to centre ville. Parking. Swimming pool. Comfortable room.

Review 23:The wifi needs improvement.

Review 24:Great location for the town and market. Excellent staff especially at breakfast

Review 25:very close to town walking distance of everything. great restaurant within 2 minutes

Review 26:Very pleasant hotel with helpful staff. Pool with closable roof meant it could be used whatever the weather.

Review 27:The sauna in the basement was a pleasant surprise. Staff were only too happy to ensure it was pre-heated for us.

Review 28:The staff were great, we enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The hotel had easy access into Sarlat itself. We found Sarlat a very interesting place.

Review 29:No Restaurant Room cold and heating did not work No extra blankets etc (but loads of pillows)

Review 30:Nice hotel, nice place, staff very nice indeed.

Review 31:No bathrobes and slippers in room though the hotel has a sauna and pool.

Review 32:Good location, easy to find, lovely court yard, indoor pool, sauna.

Review 33:Great location and great to have a swimming pool which we could take our baby in.

Review 34:Lift did not work for 2 days but obviously unavoidable

Review 35:Pool and good sized rooms

Review 36:Everything to be honest.

Review 37:Nothing really

Review 38:Parking a walk away and hard to get in and out of.

Review 39:Enjoyed the covered swimming pool on a cloudy day. Comfy beds and breakfast was good.

Review 40:There is a need for a multi-lingual Guest Manager who can connect with guests and give advice re major attractions in the district as there are so many to choose from

Review 41:Breakfast and breakfast staff excellent.

Review 42:It was very hot during our stay & the rooms air conditioning wasn't turned on. It was quite stifling and being on the ground floor we were wary of leaving windows open. No kettle or tea making facilities are provided in this 4* star hotel, breakfast was a bit steep at 12 euros each.

Review 43:The hotel is well situated to stroll to the centre of Sarlat, local restaurants & bars. The pool and garden were lovely to relax in - luckily we had fantastic weather. With the exception of one rather po faced receptionist the staff were friendly & helpful. The area is stunning with lots to see. Definitely need a car as there is so much to see.

Review 44:The rooms were small (Paris sized) and reasonably clean. It being springthe airco wasn't working so we listened to street noise andarguments at night. The garage was very poorly laid out, making parkingdifficult. The hotel seems to cater to bus tours, so individual guestswere often overlooked. We had to request towels because the maidsdidn't leave them when cleaning the rooms.

Review 45:The hotel was close to the medieval city and is centrally located in thearea we wanted to visit. The staff spoke good English.

Review 46:The room we were given at first and the fact that the room was verysmelly that agood airing out helped

Review 47:Check room before accepting; some very small and smell of tobacco evenif it is supposed to be non-smoking. No problems after; price steep forthe bookd room; paid an extra 30 euros for a better one. The pool isnice and covered so the water stays warm.

Review 48:Yet again booking.com did not give enough information about this hotel!We arrived and were alloted a double room (4 foot 6 inches) in a smallroom! Not great for 90 odd euros per night (we were staying there 6nights) There was no way to specify on the booking.com website that wewanted a twin room, I assumed that all rooms would be standard witheither 2 singles or one 6 foot bed (ie 2 twins put together), but theyweren't!. The hotel is on the rather noisy main through road in Sarlat,with quite alot of traffic noise, even with the double glazing.

Review 49:Sarlat is beautiful, our hotel had a small covered pool and hot tub, thelounge bar was very inviting and the staff concerned for our well-being(very helpful), they moved us from the small room to a much larger twin,but as they were fully booked from the Sunday, we had to move back tothe smaller room afterwards. Air-con was included, with no extra charge.

Review 50:Parking is available for a small charge but there is a short walk to carpark

Review 51:This is such a lovely hotel. Well situated just a short walk to the center of Sarlat. The staff were friendly and very helpful ( booking our canoe trip for us and recommending restaurants) There is a lovely relaxing atmosphere about this hotel and we fully enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend.

Review 52:Our room smelled very strongly of stale cigarette smoke but when we complained we were quickly found another room with no problem.

Review 53:Secure parking was useful and staff were helpful.

Review 54:I had to repair the toilet three times! (The cistern wouldn't refill andwhen it did it wouldn't stop - poor maintenance, and easily fixed). Ireported it in the morning and the receptionist said "that happens". Noapology, however. Loo separate from bathroom (personally I don't likethat). No bidet. Carpark quite a long way from hotel- it's just as easyto park in the street. I thought it was expensive for what it was-particularly the breakfast (12 euros)- but then we didn't use the poolor the jacuzzi. I do realise that Sarlat is an expensive place, though.Generally, I'm a bit surprised it's classified as 4-star. More like 3,in my opinion.

Review 55:Clean and comfortable. Quite close to centre of town. Pleasant staff,good welcome. Good wifi connection. Good air conditioning. We liked itin spite of my comments below.

Review 56:Some may find the lack of a restaurant in the hotel a drawback, and the breakfast is somewhat limited.

Review 57:Excellent location, efficient staff and clean accommodation. Furnishings are modern and comfortable and the pool, garden and balcony facilities add to a relaxing environment, ideal for short stays. The room price is set at a fair rate.

Review 58:Tiny, almost shabby rooms. We stayed here because the better hotels were fully booked.

Review 59:Good location. Staff spoke good English. Secure parking in their garage. Elevator.

Review 60:Breakfast area rather cramped. We are 4 male cyclists and wanted 4single beds When booking the only option for twin rooms was double /twin and when we arrived both rooms were made up as doubles. Hotelclaimed they did not know we were 4 males.

Review 61:It was cycle friendly with lock garage and bike racks. Good breakfastwith full range of breads/cheeses/ fruits etc. a quick responce toproblem with double beds instead of singles.

Review 62:We booked a standard double room, but received a single room with a small double bed in it. It was a squeeze to get out of the bed as the walls were so close to it. For a four star rated hotel, the bedroom was 2 star minimum. Not good value for the price we paid.

Review 63:It is a short walking distance to the town of Sarlat. The pool and gardens are nice, as was the lounge.

Review 64:I wouldn't rate the hotel as a 4* hotel. 3* maybe. The loo seat wasloose and one of the shelves in the wardrobe had its edging hanging off.

Review 65:The staff were good.

Review 66:Very comfortable,great location,helpful and friendly staff.Book hotel parking as it is difficult to find parking on the road.Only negative is the garage is small and only takes a few cars.

Review 67:The wifi connection let the hotel down. It was unreliable. My traveling companion needed it to do work in Australia each night, France time.

Review 68:Reception area attractive otherwise decor tired and scruffy. Housekeeping services poor. Parking difficult.

Review 69:Good breakfast. Comfortable, clean room. Hotel well situated in the town.

Review 70:Hotel is a bit dated

Review 71:Approximate to everywhere

Review 72:Price.

Review 73:Near to Sarlat center. Swimming-pool. Balcony.

Review 74:The great central location and the good value price of a room.

Review 76:Very clean and silent place

Review 77:very eficient ,well located

Review 78:The location is good and the staff was kind . It was easy to get to the center of the city.
