Centre Louis Ormieres Hotel Montauban

Review by hotel critic

I recently had the opportunity to stay at Centre Louis Ormieres, a humble gem nestled just off the highway, making it an ideal pit stop during long travels. For anyone driving through, it strikes a good balance between convenience and calm, given its distance from the motorway noise. The building is charming, a former convent, surrounded by lovely gardens—perfect for a stroll after a long drive. The rooms are functional, featuring single beds and ample natural light with large windows. While the aesthetic may lean towards austere, I appreciated the cleanliness and practicality, which kept my focus on the essentials. Breakfast was sufficient with a generous cup of coffee, a fresh croissant, and a small ciabatta to start the day right. The staff made me feel welcomed, particularly Jacqueline, who helped with taxi arrangements. Centre Louis Ormieres offers simple accommodation at a fair price, making it a wise choice for those appreciating value without sacrificing comfort. If you’re looking for luxury, this may not be it, but for a restful night en route, it fits the bill quite nicely. And with free parking and easy access to dining nearby, it checks all the boxes!
