We stayed here for one night, having chosen it based on Trip Advisor reviews, and it was just what we wanted. We were picking up a boat from Le Boat, for a one-week canal cruise starting the next day, and arrived in Castelnaudary by train from Paris late in the afternoon. The hotel is a short walk from the train... More

I have given this a high rating because, for a French 2-star, you would have a job to beat it. Very pleasant welcome with good English if you need it. Offered a choice of rooms and we chose one overlooking the Canal du Midi, which is lovely at this point, with good towpaths for long walks or a stroll into... More

I recently stayed at this hotel on the Canal du Midi. All the staff was very pleasant and accomodating. A pleasant woman brought out bottles of wine and snacks for 2 couples to share on an outside table by the canal after a long day of traveling. The light on the canal was just beautiful and a group of artists... More

Situated in beautiful village on the banks of the Canal du Midi. Hotel a little old (motel style) and unfortunately not air-conditioned. Bed very comfortable. Front desk staff fantastic - arranged urgent appointment with nearby dentist (40 kms away) for male traveller. Recommended. More

My family and I stayed here for the night before we started our barge trip from the Le Boat basin. The owners were extremely helpful, storing all our groceries in their fridge until we were ready to leave as well as providing us with ice, a seemingly difficult commodity to buy in Castelnaudary. They also recommended a restaurant for dinner,... More

Easy to find by the Canal du Midi and a short walk into the town - staff friendly and hotel very clean - our room was a little small but the bed was comfortable and we slept well. This hotel has a lovely breakfast restaurant but does not offer dinner in the evenings - try 'La Belle Epoque' restaurant nearby... More

If you are doing a Canal du Midi self drive cruise starting from Castelnaudary with "Le Boat" I cannot suggest a better place. The hotel is very comfortable-not fancy- and the staff are very helpful.The owner even drove my partner to the local shoemaker to fix her shoes and then again the next day to pick them up!!! We were... More

This inexpensive hotel on the canal du midi is a real well run quiet little hotel. At first blush the room seemed a little spartan but from the man at the desk carrying my suitcase up the stairs to the reccommendations for dinner and etc to the refriderator in the room and the great location for walking along the canal...

Pleasant little hotel, nicely situated on the bank of the Canal du Midi in an urban setting a few minutes walk from the main town centre and the canal basin. Some good restaurants in easy reach. Rooms are small but clean, and everything worked. Bathroom fine apart from the lack of a hook for the shower head - but this... More
