We loved our stay so much we booked another night for the trip back. Albi is a beautiful village and the hotel is situated perfectly. On a more quiet street but very walkable to the cathedral, musée de Toulous-Laurtrec, the new walking bridge (very scenic), restaurants and more. The hotel has beautiful spacious rooms that are well equipped. The restaurant (be sure to reserve it books up) was phenomenal. If you require parking be sure to reserve or be okay parking yourself and walking. We would definitely stay here again.

Really great little hotel. Thoroughly recommend.

Small hotel with great facilities. Parking was great in their own garage just steps away. Nice contemporary room. Large bathroom. Good location in lovely town. Shame we couldn’t stay longer or try the restaurant. All very attractive looking surroundings. One to revisit. We went to see the Toulouse Lautrec museum and loved the display and the building.

This is more like a restaurant with rooms. The rooms are nice, but no WiFi on third floor and smell of food in rooms. Towels smelt like they had been left in washing machine for 3 days. This is NOT a four start hotel. Staff are too busy dealing with restaurant to care. Fine at 100 euros but stupid at 200

If you want to experience a unique hotel in a beautiful town then look no further than the Alchimy. The welcome, the rooms, the service and the evening food is of the highest quality and we will go back there again. The only negative comment we have is about the breakfast as following the excellence of the evening meal we expected, at the least, a large selection at a buffet breakfast but instead we just had a basket of bread and croissants, an orange juice and a coffee so for €12.50 disappointing :-(

Toujours aussi positivement surprenant !

C'est la deuxième fois que je descends à l'Alchimie, cette fois pour un séjour privé, tout comme ma dernière venue pour organiser une réunion régionale, tout était parfait. Le personnel est aux petits soins, l'hôtel est "atypiquement" génial, déco, environnement. Nous n'avons pas eu le temps de goûter à nouveau aux plats préparés avec goûts comme lors de mon dernier passage. Je ne manquerai de m'organiser autrement pour y remédier.

Boutique hotel with large and very comfortable rooms. Bathrooms in particular were great. Service is basic as the place is probably more of a restaurant than hotel. You will need to make reservations if you want to eat at the restaurant.

Bra hôtel.

Bra Hotel överlag. Väldigt väl placerad, nära till restaurangen och butiker. Rummet är rymligt, bekväm. Den inredning är Art Deco. Sängen är lite hård, kuddarna så där. Frukost är bra. Dusch utrymmet är stort. Det är toppen bra med parkeringen nära till hotellet, kostar 15 € per natt, dock är det väldigt trånga platser och krångligt när man åker ut (tvungen att åka på väldigt trånga gå gator cirka 200-300 meter.

bel hôtel mais mauvais wifi

hôtel récemment rénové et confortable - dommage que le service soit limité puisque les serveurs du restaurant s'occupent de la réception quand ils ont le temps. Hier je les ai appelé parce que le wifi ne fonctionnait pas et ils n'ont rien fait. Quelque chose devait être débranché car ce matin, sans rien faire, le wifi fonctionnait. C'est inacceptable car j'ai besoin du wifi.
