Résidence du Soleil

Lourdes is a depressing place. It is not the hotel's fault. But, the city and the hospitality industry are devoted to pilgrims seeking cures. The hotel, like apparently other establishments, seems to be programmed to serve the expected clientele, many of whom appear to arrive on massive tour busses. Again, it is not the hotel's fault.

This was my first experience of an "aparthotel" and I came away very impressed. I would definitely stay here again – a massive and well designed room that was clean and comfortable; buy your own food and cook it or heat it up for yourself; pots, pans and a kettle are provided free, crockery and cutlery is already in the room. The receptionist (NOTE: hours are 8am to 8pm) began by giving us a map of all the holy sites of Lourdes – this must be why most people come here but it would be a fantastic base for exploring the Pyrenees, by car or bike. The centre of town is a gentle stroll away and it's close to the Pic du Jer funicular. Recommended – although Lourdes itself is a bit odd ...

Excellant services and location. Very good staff and very good services and rate.

Great staff, very helpful and joyful. Separate bunk bed space, which allowed us to have space for a married couple plus another adult with some privacy. The kitchenette allowed us to have meals there when needed, well equipped. Even if so close to the grotto, a quiet corner and a nice walk back along the river away from the crowds. Great value for what they charged, especially considering they had to close this spring due to flood damages the city underwent. Would go again!

Very pleased with the location, cleanliness, staff, parking, room...basically the whole experience of staying in this budget hotel. Would certainly recommend for an overnight stay.

Nice Place to visit Lourdes,,i mean the Breakfast is a joke for 8 euros,,but everything is Excellent,,,,the wi fi,,,the room,,,,the location,,,,to visit Lourdes go there

My wife and I had a very pleasant experience at this hotel. What seemed very minimal when we arrived VERY late at night was next morning looked at as very functional after a good nights sleep. All of the renovations to the rooms of the hotel have made all of the important areas ie. bathroom and kitchen, very well presented and workable. The bed was very comfortable and it was in a quiet backstreet. The staff were very helpful. Our French was awful but all desk staff personnel spoke wonderful English and helped us whenever they could. All in all a good stay.

Very happy with hotel and the service....friendly, helpful staff. Handy to restaurants, the river and most importantly the Lourdes grotto. Would strongly recommend this hotel.

The distances from hotel to Grotto and City Centre were rather far.

good for the price.location ok,from airport to hotel 11km,taxi fares 30 euro
