머큐어 알비 바스띠드(Mercure Albi Bastides)

Very nice hotel in Albi, in a beautiful building by the river. Hotel restaurant had a great view of the cathedral. Best place to stay in Albi without hesitating.

The setting of this hotel is superb, on the banks of the river overlooking the old town of Albi. Our room was at the side of the hotel, it was quite small, no safe, but plenty of hanging space for your clothes and a kettle if can figure out how it works ! We had to ask reception … only complaint the door stop was in a very awkward spot and my husband badly bruised his toe on it ! Breakfast was good, plenty of choice & if the weather is fine you can sit on the outside terrace. Perhaps the hotel could do with a makeover some parts looked very tired but a we had a very pleasant stay.

This hotel is top notch for it location, views and service. There's a very nice terrace dining area with terrific views (weather permitting) as well as a popular inviting lobby bar. At first, we had a quite small room (#302) with a partial view of the river/bridges but they upgraded us to a fantastic large corner room ($310) with windows on two sides that could even open. From there, the vistas of the beautiful Old Town of Albi plus the river, three different bridges and the Cathedral were simply great. Hotel had a very nice diverse breakfast (extra). It seemed the best option as nothing too much right nearby. Dinner meals were more mundane and somwhat repetitive menu. OK if too tired to go out for dinner but it was really quite a close walk across the river to where an abundance of nice restaurants were (near the unusual huge old brick cathedral). The address our GPS sent us to couldn't access the hotel and we went around in a few frustrating circles untile we found the parking entrance on a different street. Parking lot is inconvenient for dropped luggage so drive to the end and down a level to drop bags. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely staff. But very smelly hotel. Carpets need a cleaning perhaps? I think a rodent died in the wall of my room. But enormous windows opened onto the river so I powered through it. Restaurant was not worth the $$.

Very nice hotel with brilliant with views along the Tarn in a amazing building. The hotel is in a great location just over the bridge to the centre of town. Big car park and free bus service outside. The restaurant has great views. Big breakfast and lovely terrace. We upgraded our room to have a view of the Tarn. It was well equipped and great AC. The reception could not have been more helpful. He was brilliant and very knowledgeable. The breakfast staff and cleaners were really good. The bar staff were a bit slow in serving drinks on the terrace and didn’t have cold Rose on a very hot day. It was my only issue with a great hotel.

We have stayed in this hotel several times and it never disappoints. Rooms aren't massive, but they're clean and comfortable. River views are stunning! The hotel restaurant is amazing - delicious food in a wonderful setting with service that is second to none. Sit on the terrace to really appreciate the views. We will definitely be back.

I’m speechless, it was extraordinary. Excellent service , super friendly staff , iconic view . I highly recommend this fantastic hotel and city to stay . Large parking , beautiful super clean rooms. High quality food . It amazing for work , family , wedding …….

Our second stay here. Lovely location; easy walk to the Cathedral. Lovely dinner on the outdoor terrace.
