"Our room was large but basic but well priced. Pool was nice and brekky was good. The staff were good. The ad showed a sitting area in the lobby which we were planning on using but were told on arrival it was a private area - this aspect dissappointed us. I think a car is neccessary when staying here"

"This hotel was phenomenal. I am well traveled, and found this to be exceptional. I was upgraded to one of the suites, where I had one of the largest balconies one could ever expect from a hotel overlooking the southwest of France. I also had another balcony in the sitting room.

In Cailhau there is a very nice restaurant with a great atmosphere, good food and wines from the local area. The...

"Hotel looks very nice. I only stayed for one night so I can’t enjoy all the amenities. "

"Pros: Good location, wonderful spot to watch fireworks, tidy home Cons: The apartment lacks AC, and mid-July heat was awful. I can’t imagine how horrendous it must be in August. The house has no airflow, and the mosquitoes took full advantage of open windows. Don’t stay here in summer. The owner provided no basics such as salt and pepper, coffee filters, etc. Shopping is a 10 to 15 minute walk to La Bastide, which was fine except for the oppressive heat. Carcassonne and the immediate vicinity...
