Hotel Les Pasteliers

This is the best place to stay in Albi. We were in 2 different rooms, as we extended our stay. Each was lovely and spotlessly clean. Both had refrigerators plus extremely comfortable king-sized beds. One had a lovely terrace. The other was huge with an extra bed. Breakfast was delicious with fresh-squeezed orange juice. There is a cozy ambiance in the public spaces that invites guests to linger. The hotel is family-run with hosts who deliver personal attention that goes beyond making dinner reservations and calling taxis. ( if you do need a taxi, Cab-me offers personal attention also) At the hotel Stephane assisted with locating medical attention, a pharmacy and take -out meals. He made phone calls for us when French was needed. He switched us to a more convenient room. He even moved our car for us. Staff offered breakfast trays, extra towels and whatever we needed to assist with our sudden lack of mobility. We felt supported during a very stressful time. Thank you, Stephane and staff. We returned to the US and are recovering well but plan to return to France in the future to continue our interrupted trip - beginning at Hotel Les Pastileurs!

Overall a nice experience. Small family owned hotel close to the old town. The owner and the staff are very attentive and ready to help with advice regarding restaurants or local places to see. It can get a little bit noisy as doors and walls are thin but it is pretty much the same all over France.
