The Originals City, Hôtel Arion, Limoges Nord (Inter-Hotel)

Great location for easy access onto the highways around Limoges. No traffic to contend with. Comfortable rooms

More wider selection for breakfast. They only serve continental breakfast.

Situated on a retail/hotel park just off the motorway on the outskirts of Limoges, this hotel is handy for stopovers. There is some traffic noise from the motorway in the rooms at the rear of the hotel but the electric shutters help with this and it’s not a big problem. Rooms are what you’d expect from a decent budget hotel - very small, basic, clean and with a comfortable bed. There is a Court-Paille grill a minute’s walk away, and a handful of other chain restaurants and bars so you don’t need to drive to eat and drink in the evening (the hotel does offer bar service in the lounge area). The self-service breakfast was better than in many other hotels of a similar category. A good value stay for the price we paid.

Our stay began badly when the member of staff on reception could find no record of our booking and had to go into the booking.com system to retrieve it. We were allocated a twin room instead of the double we’d booked. She said this wasn’t the first such issue she’d had - she was fortunately able to give us what seems to have been her only remaining empty room (the “full” sign appeared at the entrance after we checked in). She was obviously annoyed at the problem, but was kind enough to try her best to sort everything out and honour our promotional booking rate, and we appreciated her help in making sure we had a bed for the night. If there is an issue with the booking.com system communicating with this chain’s own system, this needs sorting out.

simple hotel outside of Limoges next to many others, with carpark, located near highway connection and in a commercial/shopping centre area. Simple but good enough for us and our two kids. We want to be all in a same room and that's not always easy to find. Kids bed was a sofabed, good enough for them, in a corner with their own TV! Everything seemed quite new. Toilets and bathroom were clean. Breakfast was good enough. Usual suburban reastaurants within walking distance (Leon, Pizza, etc.). Shopping centre with McDonalds 4 minutes drive away. All in all simple but good enough. Considering one room for the 4 of us, good enough for one night.

We had everything we needed, but the environment is not a holiday area : highways, trucks and commercial warehouses and retail, 10/15 minutes away from Limoges center.

Clean and comfortable, Bit noisy at nite but no more than any other hotel on a trading estate, Young last on reception nice and helpful, Nearby restaurants nothing to write home about .

The Hotel is only 15 minutes from the airport and we were there for three nights, the staff are very helpful and accommodating in solving a problem even though it was not their responsibility to do so. The facilities and the quality of fittings such as toilets and showers were exceptionally good, especially so given that this is a budget Hotel and the breakfast was the best I've found in any other similar chains in France. The French ladies that serviced the room did an excellent job, I will definitely use the The Originals City hotels again.

I'd prefer more substantial pillows but I've had a lot worse
