The nearby parking is secure. Breakfast is severd in a very french reastaurant or outside with a view of Sarlat. It is easy to get to... more

We stayed at la Madeleine in May 2008, based on the reviews here and the location. Located just outside of the old city walls the hotel is ideally situated. The breakfast was good and plentiful. We are giving this hotel 2 stars, due to the atitude of the staff at the front desk. We made some fairly simple requests and... more

The Hotel Madeleine is located right in the center of the town of Sarlat-la Caneda. This hotel is a terrific location for exploring the Dordogne Valley region. The rooms are spacious. I recommend you request a room with a view out the front of the hotel. From your balcony, you will see a lovely, flower-filled square full of locals doing... more

We chose the Madeleine because it was one of the few hotels in Sarlat that was within walking distance of everything but also had a private garage. And for the garage alone it was probably worth it. The hotel is much more attractive from the outside than it is inside. It does have a nice lobby area where one can... more

We stayed for 7 nights at this hotel in May 2007. Our experience was excellent. The hotel is 1 minutes walking distance to the historical village. It is on a square that can be busy--but our room was very quiet with large french windows. Room was ok size for two people--very clean and very spartan. The ambience of the hotel... more

We stayed three nights at the end of May 2007. Because we were late booking a hotel in Sarlat we were unable to book into cheaper two or three star hotels and we reluctantly agreed to pay the higher tariff at the Madeleine. The room was certainly not large but, other than the size, we could not fault it for... more

The oldest and most centrally located hotel in Sarlat is only average on the inside. Our room on the top floor had a great view of the town square but was sparsely furnished. A very hard bed, one chair and a desk. Tiny bathroom. On the other hand, it was under 100Euros a night, so I probably got what I... more

The Dardogne area is astonishing in terms of medieval architecture, way beyond anything we have experienced in other parts of France. My wife and I joined an university group tour at this hotel, for the first week in September.. Sarlat as a town is a magnificent experience, with market days on Wednesday and Saturday. There are restaurants almost beyond count.... more
