Hotels near Monastery of the Carmelite nuns/ Carmel of Lourdes, Lourdes

Please read this review as it will help you with your stay. Read also all of the poor reviews for this hotel as they are mostly true, indeed not a 5 star. Booked 2 rooms in July for 3 nights, one King room without Sanctuary view and one Junior Suite with Sanctuary view. The king room (or superior double) was not a good choice, has poor ventilation and a thin noise you can only hear at night. The Junior suite has an old central AC with irritating noise even when it is turned off, if you choose this room do not forget your ear plugs. I would stay on a Deluxe room with Sanctuary view on the 4th floor instead as it is cheaper and the AC is old as well but a split model without the noise when turned off. Saw many guests complaining about AC problems, the daily french staff is rude and do not solve the problems. Breakfast does NOT woth it, it would be much better to find a boulangerie nearby. The restaurant is ok, expensive for what they serve and I would recommend just for an ”emergency” , if you have a car I would go to a restaurant in St Savin. Decoration is cheap, spa is a joke, elevators are tiny and old. Bed sheets are horrible, the windows could be sound proof but the walls are not so a lot of noise from the outside, the shower of both rooms leak to the floor. This hotel has nothing to do with the United Kingdon Belfry group, do not be fooled. We want to leave on the 1st night as 3 nights was too much on this hotel. I would not stay again, if you do choose to stay, please do not pay in advance, and do not include breakfast on your stay.

The staff was very friendly and welcome. We had a beautiful room. All was perfect and clean we even had a fan that was in the closet. Great night, the floor is quiet you can rest quietly, I recommend.

The hotel is very comfortable and clean. The bedrooms and bathrooms are nickel. Sorry that all this was disturbed by the ”bordel” caused by Spanish-language children who played in the corridors until midnight by laying the doors with grooms and who left the hotel the next day at 5 p.m. without doing any work Also attention to noise. So what to sleep well without being able to do it .....

We are on a train leaving Lourdes and didn’t want to let this review slip by forgotten. We loved it here. The room, the most excellent breakfast, the friendly service and, of course, the price. Located very near the train station, and a short walk to the Grotto. Very convenient! I especially recommend the hotel and the visit to Lourdes to those at the beginning of their Camino walk; a great way to start the journey!

The hotel reception staff were very welcoming and also multilingual. The rooms were lovely, spacious, modern, clean and we particularly enjoyed the mountain view from the room window. However, the TV was a little small and there was no complementary tea and coffee sachets provided. There is a continental style breakfast offered, but it was slightly disappointing with not much selection and fresh fruit. The location is good and fairly near to the main sanctuary and grotto although there is reasonable distance to town centre, so be prepared to walk a bit and bring sensible footwear. There is also an airport shuttle bus near the hotel at the Paradis bus stop which drops you straight to the airport. We had a good experience on this occasion and will definitely recommend staying especially if you're looking for self-catering residence type accommodation. Thank you Zenitude

The hotel is well located in the centre close to shops, restaurants and about 1.1km from the grotto (10-12 mins walk) The staff are very friendly and very welcoming especially Chris, Thiago and Fatima. It would be nice to be welcomed as an Accor member. Chris was super friendly and suggested things to do and see. Breakfast each morning was decent and did the job. It consist of croissants, pastries, cakes, yoghurt, cold cuts, cheese, marmalade etc with fresh cafe and selection of coffee too. The breakfast is more continental so don’t expect a full fledged breakfast (you pay what you get) The rooms are nice and clean. The rooms have international travel plug attached; very handy. Each day my room was serviced, it was spotless( thanks to an amazing housekeeping team). It would be good to see a coffee/ tea/ kettle in the room for easy access. Bed was super comfortable and had a good sleep the rest of the 2 nights I stayed, the first night of sleep was miserable (doors slamming, the walls are thin hence you can hear the communication and telly in the other rooms, kids screaming up till 1am). The phone in the room didn’t work, I could not even ask for a room move that time of the night.As I was out most of the time it didn’t bother me much but someone who has sleep issues, could be a bit noisier at times. Ask for a room at the back(tough you might be woken up at 530am with noise from the kitchen fans). There is no food available onsite so if you need to grab a bite, takeaway is your best bet(there’s a chipper across the street and a kebab place). The meals served are ready to eat and needs a microwave to heat it up (not something I would like to see in an Accor brand tough ibis is a mid scale hotel). I was informed by the staff at the desk about this new policy. Overall a good experience and would recommend the ibis Lourdes hotel for a short visit.

Spent a night here before flying home from tarbes airport. Hotel is very close by. Views from the balcony of the mountains were stunning. Hotel is very basic but rooms were clean and comfortable. Receptionists were friendly and check in and check out. There is plenty of car park space. Not much around in terms of supermarket/shop. This Hotel was exactly as we expected for a cheap one night stay

En janvier 2017 : Nous sommes venu en couple à Tarbes pour le réveillon de fin d'année. Nous avons choisi le Nexhotel pour son excellent rapport qualité/prix. Arrivé sur place, nous pouvons garer notre voiture dans un parking sécurisé, gratuitement. La chambre est confortable, la douche est spacieuse, les toilettes separés offrent plus d'intimité ! Nous avons eu une chambre côté voix ferrée, mais nous n'avons pas été dérangé par les trains, la chambre est bien isolée. La literie est ferme et confortable. Nous avons pris le petit déjeuner sur place, sous forme de buffet à volonté comprenant un grand choix de produits que ce soit salé ou sucré. Finalement, nous avons été extrêmement satisfait de cet hôtel autant par son standing que par l'accueil du personnel.
