HOSTELLERIE DU PASSEUR - Dordogne

Nice hotel and location was ok. Near to some expensive shops and restaurants. Parking is in nearby pay lot and cost about $30 per day.

If your GPS doesn’t find the location just keep heading uphill until you reach the top. It’s by the church. Parking is provided by the town around the hotel which is pay-parking, but apparently no one checks. We found that room was very clean, comfortable and modern. The only negative in the room was that they there are 2 types of heating and the one in the bathroom gets switched off by timer. You can override this, but only if you know how. So our first morning was a bit cold, but once we figured it out with the landlord’s help, the bathroom was nice and toastie the next day. I don’t recommend the restaurant. While the food is good it’s not as excellent as the price suggests, and the portions are small so don’t go expecting to be well fed. We didn’t have breakfast there, opting instead to patronize the local café which had Quiche and coffee at a much reduced price. I must say, though, that the views from the restaurant are stunning and may be worth the price of one meal there. On the whole I found the atmosphere a tad snobby for my taste, but others may enjoy the formality. I would stay again.

Near downtown, Nice hotel

the restaurant was very good, the chef creative. the grounds well kept and lovely. there are two red clay tennis courts, volley ball and the pool is wonderful. nestled in farm country on the Vezere river,the hotel was a short drive from Montenac , a lovely town via back road. The room i had did not have a window, just a large door, which i kept closed at night. The result was a stuffy night sleep. I would choose a different room when i go back next time. But even with that, i considered this hotel a reasonably priced find. the staff was pleasant.

The personnal was very sympathetic. Very good quality-price. We would have enjoyed more than 1 towel per person in the bathroom. Otherwise, very pleased.
