Campanile Brive La Gaillarde Ouest

This is one of the better Campaniles in my opinion (and I've used quite a few in my travels). There is no disputing that the entire chain could do with a lick of paint, but the "motel style" setting offering bedsit like accommodation overrides that in my opinion. Beds are large and comfy and it's very good value for money. The small restaurant on site is adequate, but there are plenty of alternatives within easy walking distance (including a large Lerclerc cafeteria that stays open until about 7.30 I think). There's also a MacDonalds 100m away. The staff are welcoming and very friendly.

Although a little bit in need of an upgrade this hotel is excellent value for money. It is a good place to stay to visit the Dordogne region. Friendly helpful staff good car park and near to town of Brive and local shopping mall.. Beware of Saturday traffic on motorway. Horrendous!
