College des Doctrinaires

Enjoying an optimal location in the town, with ample public parking across the street and an attractive physical plant, with a few more tweaks this really could be a four star experience. The staff are kind and attentive. While our room had four star ambiance, there were several frustrating demerits. A large armoire sits against a wall where the doors can be barely opened. A standup fan advertises AC problems, but there is no practical place to plug it in. Power plugs are located in the oddest places, two next to the floor at the door, and two practically under the bed. A minimal desk, under the flat screen television, has no light and no power plug. The biggest disappoin**ent was breakfast. While linen napkins and quiet jazz music contributed to the ambiance, their buffet looks more like a 2-3 star hotel than a 4 star. Pastries, juice, jams and yoghurt are of mid range supermarket quality. The flow, such that it is. puts the guests in a very tight conga line to obtain their breakfast. We didn't try the eggs, but they appear to be cooked to order and served by a gracious employee. After several experiences of carrying heavy luggage up a number of stairs elsewhere, we were happy to have a ground floor room. But we could certainly hear someone tramping around the room above us. It is a reasonable conversion of an old school building, and there are charming courtyards front and back. Ir is a peaceful and dignified venue. But they need to fine tune some of their offerings.

Beautiful newly refurbished building with very comfortable rooms, good amenities and perfectly clean. Breakfast is a lovely setting but perhaps not worth fifteen euro pp each morning compared to a local boulangerie / fruit shop.

The most magical stay for our pre-wedding party. Stefanie and her team really pulled it out of the bag! Thank you for looking after our guests, providing a pre-wedding get together and answering questions all year round - Hotel Doc is a MUST stay if you want big rooms, attention to detail and cleanliness. Can’t wait to visit again!

what a disappoin**ent. We cancelled a meeting with friends in Toulouse to get to the hotel in the afternoon to use the spa..we arrived 16.45 on Sunday to be told the spa closed on Sundays at 17.00..this information is on their web site when I rechecked (click onto the spa tab,which I did not do) did not expect it to close so early. We had 15 minutes to get to the pool,but second problem is noone gave us clear instructions how to get to the Spa ,which is accross the road,so we missed out..second we were then told we could not use the spa Monday morning,as Mondays are reserved for sick people only. It's a trek to get here. There is no restaurant here,so checking where to go tonight.

we had such a pleasant stay at the Doctrinaires. The staff is very kind and attentionate, and the hotel is superb and neat. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. Only one note of disappoin**ent: Only the rooms on the top floor have the A/C, which can make things a bit challenging in the summer. Overall, we had a beautiful time and would stay again at the hotel without hesitation.

Beautiful and conveniently located hotel - would stay again!

Another wedding..... So minimal time spent here but what time we had was enjoyed. We had a light lunch on arrival on the terrace which was very pleasant, the room and bathroom were good and the general hotel and setting very pleasing. Lectoure proved interesting with the antiques 'hall' close to the hotel well worth an hours visit.

We stayed here for 5 nights (8-12 August) and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Great service at breakfast and lovely scrambled eggs cooked just to our liking. The people behind the bar and reception were so lovely. You could pay your bill anytime so you didn't have to queue when leaving on the last day. It was just so laid back. The deluxe apar**ent we stayed in was fantastic, beds really comfortable and not expensive when you split the cost 4 ways as we did. The only down side to the apar**ent was only having one bathroom. It wasn't really a huge problem but when there are four people trying to take a shower all at the same time it would have been great to have had another bathroom. Shower stayed hot though, unlike some hotels when if someone has had a shower before you they use all the hot water. There was small kitchenette with a fridge and coffee making facilities which was really handy. The hotel is located right in the heart of the town too, so handy for shops and bars. It's a hidden gem on the main street of Lectoure. The staff really went of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. They even offered to iron a shirt for one of my group. Just such brilliant service. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will hopefully return there again.

Excellent place to relax for several days in the south of France away from busy beaches and noise. The hotel is at the top of a small high street with lots of character, lovely walks or inexpensive bike hire to explore this beautiful region. Good restaurants, bakers, other shops are all on the high street few minutes walk from the hotel. Everything looks clean and the locals are helpful, polite.
