Hotel Emma Calve

Hotel description

Rooms are individually decorated and come equipped with telephone, TV and private bathroom.

The hotel has a beautiful garden with a flowery patio, where you can enjoy breakfast in the morning or relax in the afternoon.

  The public rooms were quite charming, and the one member of staff we saw was polite and reasonably welcoming.

  Based on the room we were allocated, I would say that this hotel is ok for a single night (which is all we wanted), but not really for a longer stay. There was nowhere to hang clothes, except three hangers on hooks (ie no wardrobe); and we were surprised when it was made clear that we should be down for breakfast by 8:30. There is a certain charm in French businesses run on a shoestring, but not at the customers' expense. Incidentally, the advertised "city view" amounted to a window overlooking a rather ordinary road!

  Friendliness of staff. Recommendations from them, eg. Restaurants. They gave maps of area. Comfortable beds. Good fascilities.

  The showers could do with upgrading and shower matts should be provided for safety reasons.

  The Hotel was very comfortable and very central the receptionist/owner was very helpfull recomending a restauurant in the town centre we would never have found that provided excellent service in a beautiful courtyard at the rear and food that was also excellent and very reasonably priced.

  We found it strange to find, on artrival, at 1:30 pm, a sign on the door advising us that the reception did not open until 5:30 it rather messed up our afternoon perhaps if the information was available at time of booking we could have set ourselves to arrive at taht time and done other things on the way to Millau

  Typical French style provincial hotel. Very friendly receptionist. A meticulous and comprehensive package of local information was provided in the room. On street pay and display parking immediately outside the hotel. The hotel was once the residence of the famous opera singer Emma Calve and retains many of its original features.

  Didn't think the breakfast was value for money.

  Lovely hotel, beautifully furnished and maintained.

  Surly staff. Clearly not bike-friendly. A smile would have been nice.

  The only thing that was good about it was it was central to the town of Millau.

  I thought considering the price in comparison with others in the area it was quite high, considering breakfast was extra. I was told I was going to be in a deluxe room, but if my room was deluxe I would not like to be in one of the normal rooms. I considered the hotel as being very basic. It appeared to be a one man band.

  The room was clean and comfortable and situated close to the main town centre for access to shops, bars and restaurants.It was an ideal base for exploring the surrounding centres of interest, eg Roquefort caves.

  Simple hotel, and we had the cheapest rooms - peeked into the rooms with stained glass - bigger and attractive. Good welcome from the English speaking owner, who was also helpful about where to eat and the market etc. The rooms were smallish and the bathrooms plain but the bed linen was clean and crisp and the beds were comfortable - so value for money.

  Situation géographique près du vieux quartier de Millau. Hôtesse charmante et compétente pour donner des informations.Stationnement facile (samedi-soir).Lit confortable.

  Nécessité de payer la chambre à l'avance, choquant.Eclairage très faible surtout dans la SDB.Bruits désagréables provenant de la chambre voisine (Grincements du lit ?).Bruits provenant de l'avenue JJaurès.

  Aucun rangement dans les chambres! Une simple patere au dessus du lit pour suspendre manteaux, chemises, robes et pantalons!!! Un peu juste et tres mal placé! Il y a largement la place de la mettre ailleurs, dans l entree, par exemple et de prevoir un petit espace de rangement. Le petit dejeuner est tres succint! On prefererait du bon pain et quelques fruits.

  Son emplacement / son cadre ancien bien conservé / son authenticité

  Sa salle de bains moisi au mur, trop petite, wc chimique très bruyant, écoulement des eaux des autres chambres en continue , ou presque, / accueil modéré, sans grande motivation d'échanges avec le client. Mauvais qualité/prix . Petit déjeuner honnête. Place de parking dans la rue sinon c'est 10 euros.

  Niet gastvrij ontvangen, geen aandacht voor ons. Hotel, of wat er van over is, voldoet als doorreis overnachting. Bijna onmogelijk om te douchen in de badkuip van onze kamer.

  J'ai aimé le charme de ce petit Hôtel, jolie cour intérieure, jolie salle de petit-déjeuner, rappel discret de l'illustre dame qui nous a précédé dans ce lieu. Le personnel est accueillant, comme on aime.

  vriendelijk en hulpvaardig personeel. Goede (en veilige) parkeermogelijkheid (tegen betaling). Schone maar wat "altmodische" kamer

  ietwat gehorig: ik had een hoestende overbuurvrouw.....

  Sa proximité avec le but de notre visite, le fait de posséder des chambres "famille"

  L'accueil de la responsable de l'hôtel n'est pas chaleureux, c'est le moins que l'on puisse dire, à l'inverse du personnel d'entretien. Les mauvaises odeurs, émanant surtout de la salle de bains, sont tenaces... Nous étions 6 voyageurs et ne reviendrons pas dans cet hôtel.

  La déco de l'hôtel, la maison bourgeoise.

  Les bruits des canalisations d'eau pendant la nuit. Le fait de payer dès l'arrivée.
