B&B HOTEL Rodez Bourran

We stayed one night on our way north. As we were driving a classic car we were very pleased with the parking secure parking. The room was very comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities. The close access to the highway was a bonus.

On our twice yearly trip south, we overnighted here for convenience. The publicity stated a City View. No there isn't. Your view all round is walls, street, office blocks and the back of a block of flats. However, the place is comfortable enough, reasonably prices and the staff friendly. Breakfast at €7.50 per person we feel is a bit pricey for what you get, but where isn't these days.

We stayed on a Sunday night en route for the South. First impressions good - big room, tea making facility which is rare in France, big bathroom,but then came the big disappointment: NO HOT WATER! and we wondered if this was the explanation.Receptionist suggested running the water for 10 minutes - no joy. She offered us a different room on a different floor, as by then another guest had complained on our floor. Still no hot water so no point in moving. There were very few guests in the hotel.She took us to check the boilers which appeared hot and functioning, but nothing was reaching the bedrooms.She then wrote a message in an exercise book for the receptionist who followed her in the morning and then left at about 8.30 p.m.! No-one on the desk overnight. The next morning the water was warm and the new receptionist was apologetic and had called a plumber. Another problem: no-where to eat anywhere near the hotel. We had to drive into town where the only place open on a Sunday evening was a takeaway pizza place

We stayed one night there. Overall it was a pleasant stay. There's a free parking, and given the fact that it is not far from the highway, it is fairly easy to find. Obviously the interns are still in training. She was on call while I walked in, however, she didn't even bother look at me nor did she hung up the phone as soon as possible as she should have, she went on talking for 2-3 minutes and let me waiting. And she appeared to be not yet fully familiarized with their own booking system, when I told her that I made the booking 20 minutes ago, she kept staring at the printing/faxing machine and saying she hasn't received the booking confirmation yet until I reminded her to take another look at their computer system.

We were very impressed with the detour hotel, considering the price etc. Clean, Quiet, And with all good fixtures and fittings. We stayed at seven hotels on our trek, And apart from a cute Family run place, in Octon, This was the best, Thanks

This is a typical 2 star hotel, although clean and comfortable beds, the location is a bit out of the way with not many facilities nearby. There are some restaurants, a bakery and Spar. Probably the budget IBis is a better choice.
