Valence Holidays from £294

Thanks to Sophie and everyone there for their hospitality. Had a very peaceful, restful stay. 🙏

Clean room with amenities, good breakfast and extremely helpful staff.

This out of the way small hotel is amazing The gardens are lovely, along the river and old bridge, and the restaurant truly special. It’s close to Rocamadour and other sites. FYI: There aren’t shops nearby, but a casual lunch place with good food is a fifteen minute walk.

Résidence de Diane was a charming and cozy place to stay. The gardens were beautiful and gave us tropical vibes. Raphael at the front desk was super friendly and apologetic about not being able to put our large family in adjacent suites as requested. One of our rooms had to be switched and they could only give us the largest suite which turned out to be an upgrade, so we liked it. It had two bedrooms, a spacious living room, full kitchen, bathroom, laundry room (washer/dryer), 3 TVs, sunny deck with a table, chairs, and sunbrella, plus drying racks, perfect for our needs. The second suite was smaller but very cozy, townhouse-style with a mezzanine and its own little patio. We loved the AC as it was very hot, the natural light, nice breakfast buffet, friendly housekeeping, cool gym, and pool area with loungers. It’s close to a bus stop and walking distance to Lidl and nice dining options. A few things could be improved: the large suite was echoey and a bit bare (a rug would help!), the kitchen lacked basics like dish soap, sponge, paper towels, and cooking tools like spatulas or cooking spoons. Only one dishwasher pod and one dishcloth were provided. In-room coffee pods weren’t great and kinda hard to use. No pool towels, and the pool isn’t super kid-friendly, there’s no shallow end, and the deck could use some TLC. A playground on the premises would’ve been a great addition for families. Still, we enjoyed our stay and would happily return again!

The hotel was very well situated - a short walk from Place du Capitole - and yet it was also extremely quiet. My room was small but big enough for my needs, and it was kept clean. The staff were pleasant and helpful whenever I asked them anything. I had the breakfast on one of my three mornings and found it to be very good, if somewhat expensive. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a peaceful stay close to the shops, restaurants and Metro stations in the centre of Toulouse.
