Reviews for Hôtel de France

Review 1:The check out is only until 23:00 which we nearly missed as our flight landed into Toulouse at 21:30. After 23:00 entry is via a sode door with a code and there are no staff at the desk which can be a problem if you are arriving late. The decor was dated, carpets were old and threadbare in places and whilst this itself is not a problem, one would expect more with the price paid.

Review 2:Good locoation and the suite is a noce sized room.

Review 3:This hotel is in the middle of the historic city of Auch.pronounced ooosh. An old hotel full of natural charm, we had the only room that had a jacuzzi in it.Room 01. A fantastic restaurant with a Gastro menu. Friendly staff .

Review 4:room smaller than expected. Decor tired but is going to be refurbished.

Review 5:the staff is charming, helpful and sorts problems very efficiently. Easy parking near by, " steps from the cathedral and several good restaurants.

Review 6:A bit noisy at night and one night the fuse to our room blew. No one was available for help, but since it was really late we simply went to bed.

Review 7:Spacious room and bathroom, very clean and located right in old town. Super friendly staff.

Review 8:Great central location, lovely historic building still in its original use, fantastic in-house brasserie with local produce and so incredibly reasonably priced. All mod cons, spotlessly clean, very pleasant helpful staff. All in all, a lovely experience in this historic town! This is a really sweet place to stay!

Review 9:We stayed in a basic room with no real showering option, it was passable but very basic. We heard the more expensive rooms were much nicer as you'd expect

Review 10:Great location, very friendly and helpful staff. Free wifi throughout and a brilliant restaurant.

Review 11:oh my goodness! where to start? really impractical bathroom, sunken bath which was so hard to get in and out of (me an old lady with a hip replacement!) no handles to help and slippery, no shower, old dated furniture, whole place needs renovating, shabby carpets and walls, strange broken thing in loo,

Review 12:right in the middle of town, excellent meal in brasserie, staff, parking although not on site, was nearby, spacious quiet room. I'd recommend it only for its location.

Review 13:The hotel location is perfect for sightseeing in Auch. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Review 14:Proche de Marciac (festival de jazz)

Review 15:There was carpet in bathroom and stained carpet all over room. There was no shower so I had to have a bath

Review 16:The room was very nice especially the bathroom. Location in the centre of town.

Review 17:Excellent location. Bedroom very tastefully furnished and clean. Staff very friendly and polite

Review 18:May have been recently renovated, but still feel tired and has seen better days

Review 19:Fantastic location

Review 20:We had a junior suite and the bathroom looked fabulous but was very impractical. 2 steps to go up to the toilet then down 2 steps and across to get to the hand-basin. The bath was sunken, so difficult to get into. A proper shower was impossible, unless seated in the bath and using the show head just for hair. The property needs renovating.

Review 21:Staff were very good, and the location with access to a variety of restaurants (incl an excellent Indian one nearby) makes it a perfect spot. Feedback wasn't all that good but I figured we'd be "safer" by booking a suite. It was spacious, but the bathroom set up was really awkward.

Review 22:The faded, and dirty decor, which was no doubt beautiful when first done, but is now well past its best. The bathroom facilities. The bath was very difficult to get in and out of for a small, elderly lady, and it was impossible to use the shower without soaking the bathroom carpet.

Review 23:Very central location, with nearby free parking. Excellent for looking around the town etc.

Review 24:The room was very dirty, sheets and covers old and of dubious cleanness.Fitted carpet very dirty. Bathroom old/poorly fitted.Strong kitchen smell in the corridors/stairs.

Review 25:Reception staff very helpful. Before my arrival the young lady in chargeof reception helped me find a taxi from Toulouse airport to Auch.Friendly, professional, helpful.

Review 26:Lift was out of order, but a member of staff carried up my case to myroom. Bedoom was small, dark and airless, overlooking a small courtyard.Found it depressing but was only staying one night. If staying longer,would have asked for another room.Tiny bathroom. Exterior of hotel lookslovely, but interior certainly needs "freshening up" I.E. acoat of paint,pictures on walls etc.

Review 27:Very friendly, helpful staff.Great location on main square,near the Cathedral-well worth a visit. Look especially fat the stained glass windows andextraordinary wood carvings in the choir area.Lots of nice restaurantsjust wintin minuntes of hotel. Very safe area.

Review 28:Our bathroom didn't have a stand up shower which was a disappointment.

Review 29:The hotel is quite quirky and all the rooms are very different. It is right in the centre of Auch. We had a meal in the brasserie which was very nice and the staff accommodated my vegetarianism well which is unusual in France! The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Review 30:Hard to believe, there was nothing I didn.t like about the place.

Review 31:The staff were so friendly, the hotel so comfortable. Right on a busy French square with outside cafes full of atmosphere. Very very French, it was great.

Review 32:Rooms were very tired and out of date. Little to like about them. Would appear that no money has been spent on them in 30 years. £80 a night not including breakfast is a rip off.

Review 33:Location and staff

Review 34:Carpet in the bathroom and toilet

Review 35:It was dated but had a certain charm. I would happily stay there again if I was in the area and the location was brilliant. Fantastic brasserie across the road and my friends ate at the hotel brasserie and highly recommended it

Review 36:Very little! The hotel is in a great location and is architecturally interesting, inside and out. The bedrooms and upper floors are perhaps a little old fashioned but this just added to the charm of the place.

Review 37:We arrived late (11.30pm) but the reception manager was very friendly and obliging, rutling up a bottle of chilled white wine and some cheese for us even though the restaurant was closed. He and his colleagues remained warm, friendly and pleasent during our short (sadly just one day) stay.

Review 38:Fantastic town and very good staff and people. The hotel is old and a little run down but you can tell they are trying hard to maintain it. We would return.

Review 39:Rooms did not bear any resemblance to website pictures. Bed was extremely uncomfortable. Decoration was poor. Room furniture very tired and uncomfortable. Restaurant was either closed or booked for private function for our entire stay.

Review 40:Location

Review 41:not the hotels fault but opposite a main sauqre whee there seems to be a party atmopshere , noisy until about 2.00 am,,,shame otherwise all very nice

Review 42:initially location but see dislikes, old hotel, very good staff and good meal there too

Review 43:Bedroom was far too hot & duvet on bed exaggerated this.However after advising reception,an adjustment was swift & management follow up. Brasserie waiter was abrupt when asked to show dinner bill for approval.

Review 44:location,reception & facilities.

Review 45:Traditional regional cuisine, for which the hotel was was once famed, now with a modern day influence. The hotel is a glorious reminder of French regional grand hotels as they once were.

Review 46:Bed in superior room was only a standard double. Restaurant menu extremely limited in choice (except for duck).

Review 47:The superior room and bathroom were of an excellent size. Very much enjoyed the menu of the day (lunch) in the stylish brasserie (excellent value) Staff were informed , attentive and very helpful.

Review 48:There is no parking. I had asked reception to book a taxi for us to go to Lussan which is 15 minutes away. the journey there and back to Auch cost us 80euro. It was unbeleiveably expensive!

Review 49:We had a really beautiful room. The bathroom was a great size and there was lots of space.

Review 50:This hotel is in a great location on the square in central Auch. Thestaff are helpful and anglophonic. The restaurant provides an excellentmeal but the highlight was a getting education on Armagnac. The host isan Armagnac and whisky connoissuer and, as I was in the regionintending to taste some of this wonderful regional product, I wasrewarded with tasting and local information. The host offered toarrange a tour of a local distillery but, alas, did not have time to doso. This is the real deal.

Review 51:The photos on the Web Site did look the same as the real thing?

Review 52:The lady on the front desk was very helpful.

Review 53:Very dated and in need of massive refubrisent. Old worn carpets, walls and ceilings dark with old dust.

Review 54:Great location. Clean bedding.

Review 55:Nothing. Tres bonne.

Review 56:The staff went beyond to help me out of a tight situation. They were friendly and professional and accomodating.

Review 57:The bed and the tired facilities

Review 58:The staff and the location

Review 59:The renovation project is ongoing, and is needed

Review 60:Charming and relaxed with very helpful and friendly staff

Review 61:Not very clean
