“Returners to the hotel.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011

We stayed here in 2008 as part of our honeymoon & the owners were fantastic, food excellent and accommodation far better than most we had stayed in. So we have returned throughout the next few years and the improvements are far better than the 2 stars it has been awarded. The owners surpass helpful, they have gone out of their way to make sure each stay is perfect, offering great advice and chatting like old friends. The food really is very very good and although we have our favourites, it is hard to make a choice between the different delicious dishes (even though the walnut sauce is still my favourite!). A very good regional wine list and the food compliments each choice as well. A credit to them both, you can see the love and hard work that has gone into this great family owned and run hotel & restaurant. I would recommend this to anyone, couples, families and single travellers. Rocamadour is not a destination for less mobile as it is all cobbled and steep hillsides, which in my mind gives it it's unique character in a stunningly beautiful location.

Room Tip: I really liked the first floor rooms that look out the front, as they have great views, but some roo...

“Mixed thoughts on this?”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We stopped here as part of a Leger coach holiday. The location is very impressive, almost magical on 1st approach. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Our room was on the top floor (3rd) it has very dated decor, creaky floorboards, flies everywhere, no aircon etc. The shower head is leaky and problamatic. The evening meal was very good, and can not be faulted. However for breakfast the food was laid out, continental style as you would expect, but it was unedible due to the fact that it was covered in flies!!, there was no attempt to cover the food, how can you be expected to eat food when it is covered in flies!!!.

“DO NOT GO TO THIS HOTEL”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2011
3
people found this review helpful

rooms more like small cupboards, hot without any climate control, one ancient inefficient lift, no disabled facilities, owners indifferent, bathroom so small it's challenging, badly needs refit, food extremely poor quality and barely edible, restaurant very cramped making movement difficult - in short,guest comfort compromised in the ultimate quest for maximum profit

Room Tip: cramped, hot, badly in need of refit

“Flies with everything”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Room very tired and needed a good clean around the skirting boards. Shower had mold and showerhead kept falling off. Bathroom very small. View from room was beautifull but very warm. Restaurant was overun by flies. We went on a coach tour and the first nights meal was unedible, most of the coach party left their meal. It did improve as the week went on but I would describe the cooking as between hospital food and school dinners.We did not see any gourmet food, perhaps it was as a result of a coach party booking and hotel cutting costs.Sally English owner was very nice and did her best.

Room Tip: Check your room before booking in
