PALLADIA HOTEL

The Palladia hotel is not worthy of its star rating. I am a frequent traveller and this hotel only has 3 things going for it (ten mins from airport, free parking, free WiFi). You can hear all the other residents through the walls. The "non smoking" (privilege) room I was allocated (which cost £80 a night) had cigarette burn marks around the basin, dirt in the bath, peeling wallpaper, broken fans x2), a squeaky rock hard bed, squeaky interior doors, stains on the walls, curtains and carpet, greasy hand marks on the windows, a shared patio with neighbouring smokers who sat out smoking so I couldn't go outside/open window as it wafted in my room. This hotel is at the wrong end of town on a noisy road, adjacent to the hospital (you can hear the cars and ambulance sirens all night despite the double glazing), there's no amenities outside the hotel compound, but there is a tram 5 mins walk away (if you can negotiate the busy main road, derelict buildings, graffiti and vagrants) that takes you to a metro, which ultimately gets you into the centre of town. The booking paperwork stated that an airport shuttle was available. When I asked at reception, they said there was no shuttle, but they could organise a taxi at my own expense. Lucky for me I had use of my hire car long enough to cover the airport run the following morning! As for the immediate town - Toulouse - it has some notable historic buildings, but the dirt, vagrants and heavy police presence (all wearing hand or machine guns and bomb jackets), totally ruins the experience. In summary, dirty & noisy. There's much nicer places to go. How they can justify charging tourists an extra 2euro a night tourist tax I don't know . . . ! All in all, not an experience to repeated

I have stayed in Hotel Palladia in June 2016. The hotel is settled near the Toulouse Balagnac Airport. The staff can speak Engish and all the staff was very helpfull an friendly. The breakfast was very rich and delicious. Hotel has a very big open parking place. And Hotel Palladia has a free internet access.

A night here is probably enough for me. OK restaurant and an early-closing bar with no resident service is bearable. Couple that with some fairly grotty facilities for the price (rips in wallpaper, disgusting sink and a shower that won't work when raised to the height of a normal person) and I won't be rushing back. Sorry.

Nice hotel , great helpfull staff. you need a car though as it is a bit out of town. This hotel is ideal for buisness/ conferences, as it even has its own theatre! Rooms are clean some stylish depending on the type you choose. Internet works very well . I had forgotten some clothes in the cupboard and the staff really helped me send them back my country. Customer service at it's best!

The hotel staff are very nice and helpful. Breakfast buffet is very good with a lot of choices, although menu/food is the same every morning. The room is very cozy and clean. The hotel is just one bus ride to the Capitole.
