Villa Caroline - Chambres d'Hotes

Fabulous stay, beautifully appointed rooms and common spaces, nothing too much trouble for host Mario, great breakfast with all home made jams and preserves, well presented on beautiful crockery - would so recommend and will come back again some day

The accommodation and hosts are superb in every way. The location is ideal for exploring Albi and surrounding area. The rooms are very comfortable with everything you need available. The owners are super helpful and the breakfast is a delight with home made jams, honey and fresh bread and pastries. We highly recommend staying at Villa Caroline.

A first visit to Albi and what a wonderful city. So full of character and history. Our stay at Villa Caroline was excellent. Spacious room (Toulouse-Lautrec) with quality furnishings, linen and bathroom. There is a terrace, but the weather during our stay didn't allow us to use it. Maybe next time! Warm welcome from Mario and a good breakfast. Again, we couldn't take advantage of eating on the outdoor terrace with a great view of the cathedral. Nice to have the large communal space with use of the kitchen if needed. It's in a great spot - very quiet, yet 10 minutes walk from the centre. The nearby free car parking is an added bonus. Would absolutely recommend.

From the welcome by Mario to the comfort of the room, to a delicious breakfast, this stay in Albi was superb. Our ground floor room with a terrace was immaculate and cleverly designed to ensure guests had a relaxing stay. A bonus was the view across the river to the city of Albi, soon to be more easily accessible once the ancient bridge repairs are completed. Mario’s recommendations for restaurants were spot on. For Australian visitors the nearby Botany Bay park and Laperouse Museum will bring an interesting connection to home. It was too cool for breakfast on the communal terrace, but that will be a treat to look forward to next time.

We stayed at Villa Caroline for three nights recently and were so happy to have found this wonderful place! Mario is an impeccable host - friendly, accommodating and very, very, efficient. The location is convenient- just across the bridge from the famous cathedral, but wonderfully quiet. The views from the terrace are something I will remember forever. Breakfast on the terrace with fresh fruit, home made yogurt and jams, and fresh baked croissants, while looking onto that remarkable cathedral was the best way to start the day. Thank you Mario - we have stayed in many places over the years and this was one to remember!

Beautiful view, peaceful, quality linens and exquisite decor. My husband and I were on an extended road-trip and exhausted. As soon as I saw the place I asked Mario if he could accommodate us for 2 nights and we got lucky. Wonderful host with personalized yet non-intrusive service. Delicious organic offerings for breakfast. Well done. Highly recommend!
