Espaly-Saint-Marcel Vacations from $1,336

Perfect location, close to everything. The staff was very professional and personable.

Positives: Well-priced, well-situated hotel. Decent restaurant with good choices. Very good restaurant staff who were charming, despite being overworked and going flat out. Pleasant room, comfortable bed. Water dispenser in the corridor a very good idea. Good shower. Good breakfast. Negatives: air conditioning clearly not up to the job of a full hotel in 38'. My complaint was treated with more or less a shrug as the receptionist condescendingly told me it was hot (really??), that the hotel was full (and..?), and that it would cool down eventually (after about 6 hours it did). Pillows awful, great thick artificial things, very uncomfortable. Disappointing not to have a walk-in shower. Difficult for both of us to climb in and out of very deep bathtub to use shower, especially with no handles or bars or a non-slip mat. You would never see this in England and I'm amazed it is legal in France. I would stay here again, but only with a walk-in shower.

Stunning place, a wow experience only minus was the 10 euro breakfast you can't eat it in the restaurant, it gets brought to you in the bar lobby. I am gluten intolerant so I got a coffee and an apple brought. Felt expensive for 10 euros. It was a shame as this was the last experience we walked away with. Hotel please look at this rules not being able to eat in brasserie like 19 euro breakfast especially when it is half empty as it was when we went, it let's down your amazing place. Overall as everything else was superb i would recommend this place to anyone though.

Room was not properly cleaned as we could see someone had spilled a beverage and left there until we arrived. Towels were missing from the room and we had to request them. Staff was nice and we felt welcomed. Some amenities are not added to the room and instead we have to ask them. I was expecting more when I made the booking.

Other than a middle of the night banging on our or a neighbors door, we enjoyed our stay. Although the room was snug, it had everything we needed including a comfortable bed and good shower. Of note was the morning receptionist: she spoke good English, was super friendly-
