Hôtel le Troubadour à Rocamadour

We stayed with friends at this hotel to experience the Tour de France which was passing the entrance of the hotel. The hotel met and exceeded our expectations. The grounds were well maintained and set out to allow people to relax. A little oasis to enjoy a swim or a drink in comfort. The staff were friendly, helpful and very obliging. We would definitely recommend this hotel and we will be returning.

My wife and I spent two nights at this hotel for our stay in the greater Rocamadour area. The hotel has plenty of parking space. The reception, bar and breakfast area are in the main building; the rooms are in an attached but separate 2-floor structure and are all entered from a covered outside walk. Make sure to get a room on the top floor. Check-in time ends at 8 PM (20:00) because that is when the manager closes up the main building and leaves for the night. The room was sufficiently spacious, clean and neat. The bathroom and shower were quite good. The beds were very comfortable. The area around this hotel was very quiet as it sits well off the main road and is about 1.5 km north of the main intersection in the upper town area known as L’Hospitalet. Breakfast was also very good. Much to our surprise, we were told that one could walk off-road from the hotel down to Rocamadour. When it was still light outside, we recorded our walk down to and through Rocamadour on Gaia GPS (a hiking app) so that we could find our way more easily in the evening when we went back down for dinner (with our flashlight and another one that the hotel manager loaned us). It is a 1 km, off-road walk (approx. 15 min) from the hotel to the main intersection in L’Hospitalet. Note that there are quite a few restaurants, including 3 of the hotel’s top recommendations, near this intersection. From there, it is another 75 meters down a concrete walk to the main road bisecting the medieval town area of Rocamadour. We walked down this road and through the lower gate, turned around and walked almost 200 meters back to the Grand Escalante staircase, climbed the steps up to the Sanctuary area, then walked up a path with many switchbacks to the chateau, and finally walked back down on a path running alongside the Route du Chateau to the main intersection in L’Hospitalet. This entire loop starting and ending at the hotel was about 5-6 km and took us 1.5 hours. But it was worth every meter and every minute. The only negative about our stay was that the manager told us on the first afternoon (when we arrived) that we did not need to make dinner reservations as this was a quiet time in Rocamadour (middle of October). This was incorrect, and we had a really hard time finding a place for dinner, having to settle on a less than stellar restaurant at a table right next to the squeaking door to the W/C. Very unfortunate. However, we made reservations for dinner on our second night and had a great experience. We would recommend this hotel, especially since we now know that it is easy walk from there down to medieval Rocamadour.

A perfect sanctuary of calm. Superb experience, with friendly customer service. Lovely pool, beautiful accommodation and great choices for breakfast, all freshly prepared. I will definitely will return.in the future, my only regret is that I didn't book more nights here.

A truly lovely place to stay and I only wish we had booked for more than one night. Mathieu (hope that's how he spells his name) was welcoming and friendly despite us turning up very early for our booking! We slept in a two-bedroom apartment that was very comfortable and clean and had a lovely terrace overlooking the fields. The peace and quiet were a balm to the soul! Breakfast was fabulous, with everything we could have wished for and delicious coffee. There are numerous restaurants available nearby. Hopefully, we will be back, but for longer next time!

Nous avons passé une nuit au Troubadour, et ce fut une expérience incroyable. Le personnel de cet hôtel est accueillant et chaleureux. En ce qu’il concerne l’hôtel, le cadre est typique et très calme. A quelques pas du centre de Rocamadour, tout se fait à pieds. Notre seule déception est de ne pas être resté plus longtemps !

Sensationnel Tant sur l accueil que la propreté de la chambre, le petit déjeuner, hyper copieux avec des produits locaux... Des hôtes à l écoute avec de vrais conseils pour les visites à faire et les tables à découvrir Un parc très bien entretenu, un parking gratuit une piscine très propre et bien agencee A 5 min du site historique de rocamadour avec un accès particulier à travers une truffiere Nous reviendrons sans hésiter...
