Reviews for Hôtel La Chaumière
Review 1:The check-in staff offered us the choice of two rooms, we chose the more modern terrace room, very spacious, clean and good bath room size. The room was very quiet There was ample secure space to store our bicycles. The breakfast was one of the best of our trip with fresh fruit and pastries in addition to the standard fare of cereals, cold cuts & cheese The location was easy to find and very close to restaurants in town.
Review 2:We booked a 2 night stay, when we arrived there was a fairground pitched in the car park opposite but it was not a major problem, most of the staff struggled with English,on the second night we returned to our room after a day out to find a box of earplugs on the bed this surprised us a bit as we were unsure why they were there but come that night we sure found out. We assume It Was the village party, held outdoors behind the hotel in the square noise went on till around 2:30 am if we had been told we would not have stayed 2nd night
Review 3:Very large rooms large shower room central location
Review 4:No negative comments
Review 5:Great hotel. Good location easy to find and good access with underground parking. Very friendly helpful staff. Good restaurant for evening meal and breakfast. Not much English spoken but they try hard please.
Review 6:Large room, well ventilated with windows at opposite sides. Friendly manager and staff. Biere artisanale local brew from Puivert, excellent and suyrprising for this area.
Review 7:Hate to be negative but the hotel has spent a huge amount of money refurbishing but havig installed a glass shower guard aside of the bath they have not installed a fitting so you can hang the showerhead and have a shower.
Review 8:turned out to be a great place to stay in Quillan,very large room with large and well tiled bathroom.The room was a good size and the noise level is Zero even though it is on the main road.
Review 9:Nothing.
Review 10:Room was modern,clean,quiet with large bathroom and automatic shutters.Family operated with very good restaurant and great staff. Menu includes Vietnamese dishes that were great. Try the Pho.Lots of free parking beside hotel. 5 minute walk to other shops and restaurants in area. This is the favorite hotel of our visit to the region.
Review 11:The entrance lobby area, lounge area and the check in desk area was very outdated and could do with some improvements since this is the first impression of the hotel, and it is not particularly enticing. Also while we were there there was a terrible smell (either rubbish or blocked sewer?) in the lobby area which appeared to emanate from the basement. This did put us off wanting to eat in the restaurant.
Review 12:The room was located in the new extension and was very clean, sufficiently furnished and the bed was very comfortable. The shower was exceptionally good. The breakfast buffet was good and the lady who managed the breakfast serving, etc. was a very lovely person.
Review 13:Stuffy. AC didn't seem to work, and too much street noise, especially for a small town. Poor restaurant and surly service.
Review 14:Large, well-appointed rooms.
Review 15:We loved everything about the hotel from the decor to the comfort and also the excellent service. We will stay thee again and totally recommend it. Although we did not need them our room and bathroom were wheelchair friendly and a lot of thought had been given to the design. Thanks for a great stay.
Review 16:The temperature in the room was a bit difficult to adjust. The bedding was the configuration we had requested, but we're not very comfortable. A bit on the hard side with poor pillows. Do-able but less than ideal for a single night. Cost for underground garage was a bit excessive for the convenience.
Review 17:The hotel was easy to locate. Rooms were comfortable with adequate room to relax for the evening. It was convenient to be able to access the hotel restaurant after a somewhat late arrival after a long day of driving.
Review 18:Not sure that I would pay for the underground parking - there is plenty of free parking close by - but it was vey secure.
Review 19:The look of the hotel and the location in Quillan. The room was very modern and comfortable and exceptionally clean. we would happily stay there again.
Review 20:Lift doesn't service all floors. Odd smell at the rear entrance to the hotel. A little pricey for a village hotel.
Review 21:Modern room. Very nice bathroom & shower. Charming restaurant.

Review 53:Modern, clean and well equipped room, good value for money.
Review 54:the internet is a bit slow, but that's a minor detail.
Review 55:-Very friendly staff, going the extra mile when asked for something specific -diner in the hotel was very good at a very reasonable price -rooms, including the bathroom, were more than ok: large, clean & comfortable
Review 56:The hotel exterior was shabby and needs tidying up. Dead flowers in the reception area and weeds growing out of the main entrance stairway betrayed a general lack of attention to the overall ambience. Our bedroom had a disappointing outlook so select one with a view to the front. Breakfast was not very good - nothing hot, not even the coffee.
Review 57:Excellent location for access to stunning scenery and countryside. The bedroom and bathroom were spacious The dining room was comfortable and dinner was good.
Review 58:Excellent hotel, great stay. Even allowed me to park my motorbike in their underground garage. If you don't fancy trip into town they have a great restaurant too.
Review 59:A little dark and disheveled; like a well intentioned but amateur attempt to run a hotel. Worst breakfast I've ever had in a hotel - cold coffee, cold omelet sitting out, stale bread, cold dining room. No water pressure.
Review 60:Price. Small. Good bed. Free WiFi. Garage parking easy and relatively inexpensive.
Review 61:Maybe breky served early say 0630 but it was off season all the same.
Review 62:To many good things to list.Although The Location & Host-Staff were A1. 24 hrs a day.
Review 63:On arrival, dusk was settling and reception are looked dark anddismal...not conducive to using that area as a sitting area. Bed roomwas on an alley way. On arrival bed was not dressed fully revealing abare undermatress. Counterpane and coloured dressing appeared on thesecond day. Cushions and bed attire piled on a chair in the corner. Aspacious room but tv too small ...could not read any writing on italthough the picture was clear. Creaky floor..laminate needs refixing orsticking. Dark dining room was not inviting so we even ventured out inthe rain to eat.
Review 64:Comfortable bed. Large shower. Very friendly lady who was there at allmeal times. She ensured we had an excellent breakfast the first morningeven to the extent of offering a freshly made omelette.
Review 65:We could not get the air con in the room to work and it became quitewarm in the night, but only mentioned it at the end of our stay so ithas probably been sorted out now.
Review 66:The room was excellent and very stylish. The food was also extremelygood. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again if in the area.

Review 70:This was a great find. It was all very good easy to find, great food, nice people, great value. Just stayed one night would have been happy to stay longer rooms were moder with air con.it was a great stay for the money.
Review 71:Our bedroom was not ready for us when returned from a day's outing. They need at least one more member of staff, to handle the bar and or reception so that the two main members can get on with their main jobs.
Review 72:The Dinner was excellent. The staff helpful and friendly. The Bathroom clean and roomy.
Review 73:Smelly underground Garage for Parking Restaurant decor looked tired and outdated but didn't detract from experience as quality & decor of rooms were excellent
Review 74:Friendly comfortable Hotel
Review 75:The breakfast is on the skimpy side, only partly compensated by a reasonable price setting at 10.50 EUR
Review 76:Excellent hotel with air conditioned (it was 39°C outside) sound-proof rooms (there was a festival going on and I slept right through it). Friendly staff a the reception. There is a fitness facility in the basement. Optional garage space at 5 EUR is good value.
Review 77:the room by the name of "Raymond" was old fashioned, ok, but it smelled of decades of nicotine. I could take it, I am a tolerant ex-smoker, others may suffer.
Review 78:La Chaumiere is one of those old fashioned gems of a country sideish French old hotel hidden in a rather boring small town that on the other hand happens to be in the very center between the cathar castles – Montesegur on one side, queribus on the other, – and the new sacred places of hippidom such as rennes-le-chateau (made famous by the idea stealing dan drown who got his take of the wholy grail from the british hobby historians Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh und Henry Lincoln) and burgarach (with the famous upside down mountain supposedly containing an ufo that should have saved a bunch of crazies last december. It did not show up, but some of the hippies are still there). The hotel offers old fashioned charm and a classic dining room, nice round balcony overlooking the lazy scenery of the small town as well, serving excellent food and truly glamorous vines. The greenish Chardonnay is exceptional, yet the cassolet, a very stout local dish based on beans in a thick sauce, is, well, a bit hard to take.
Review 79:It was located on a crossroad with traffic lights, but the amount of traffic was light with no heavy lorries.
Review 80:Newly refurbished with air con. Good reception, English spoken, free wifi and free chilled water in the room. In the centre of the small town.
Review 81:No tea or coffee making facilities in room but electric jug cups sugar and tea were supplied on request. Steak was tasty but a bit tough.
Review 82:Very pleasant and friendly staff, particularly Oliver, Janine and Elodie. Large modern room, nice dining room with excellent wine choices by Oliver and Elodie. Food mostly v good and excellent service. Locals said it is pick of hotels in Quillan. Comfy bed too. V enjoyable stay.
Review 83:Not much not to like, restraunt not cheap.
Review 84:Secure parking in the underground garage for motorbikes and cars. Lovely rooms, friendly staff, some English speaking. Nice menu.
Review 85:Quillan is a disappointing place. With the death of local industry, the heart has gone out of it.
Review 86:Staff were friendly and helpful. Good base for seeing sights like Cathar castles. But see following comment....
Review 87:Dinner menu at restaurant was limited. I wanted a light meal, and that was not possible.
Review 88:Special room was spacious and comfortable. Bathroom up to date. Quiet
Review 89:I have no adverse comments
Review 90:The room was very well appointed and in excellent decorative order. I was taken ill and the staff could not have been more sympathetic and were happy for us to stay 2 extra days. Very good food.
Review 91:Towels were hard which is a shame as everything else was brilliant
Review 92:Good modern hotel with good sized room, lovely decor and smart bathroom. Friendly staff made you feel comfortable
Review 93:The weather - not enough sun!!
Review 94:This is a lovely hotel - beautiful brand new large bedrooms in recently renovated section. Olivier, the owner, could not have been more helpful and predictive of our needs. Clean, huge rooms with modern decor, restaurant and wine list fantastic. Highly recommended for a stay in the Aude Valley.
Review 95:Hotel was very comfortable and the room was quiet on the ground floor. The breakfast was excellent value. We did not have an evening meal in the restaurant but the dining room looked very elegant. Parking was right outside the hotel and was free. A very good one night stay.
Review 96:service was excellent restaurant (evening meals) were excellent - if the locals come in there for a meal and a drink it must be good helpful / attentive staff, who went out there way to attend to any issues (no matter how trivial) large clean rooms
Review 97:I was there in the middle of winter when most things in thevillge/town were closed because it isn't the tourist season.Although I understand for purely business/financial reasons theresteraunt in the hotel wasn't open for dinner a couple ofnights. But I was always able to find some where different for dinnerevery evening.
Review 98:Traveling in France and not speaking the language the Family (Staff) wasgreat. They were very helpful. I was there finishing research for thebook that I'm writing about the Shroud of Turin and Knights Templar.This was my second trip to the area and will most likely be going backsome time in the future. I would certianly be looking to stay at theHotel La Chaumiere. They made me feel very welcomed.The breakfast buffet always had a variety of different kinds of food. Although I often suspected they were wondering what is this crazy American doing hiking around in the Pyranees Mountians in the middle of winter and didn't bring any skis.
Review 99:Somewhat smelly drains.
Review 100:Nice bathroom. Rest was fine - a reasonable room, very functional. I suspect being a triple, we got the slightly worse room of the hotel as the reviews we had read were all great. For us, it was all good, just not great.
